Yes, another year has come and gone. Due to several personal commitments and obligations, my work to finish the book in 2017 was delayed. But there is a bright side: the total number of Lee Speeds for which I have gathered data passed the 700 mark this year, and even better, I was able to access the sales ledgers of several gunmakers and noted information on all the Lee Speeds sold. This has allowed me to match sales data (date, configuration, price, owner, special features, manufacturing source) for a number of rifles that I have examined. This allowed me to see which particular variations were available at definite dates---more accurate than relying on catalogues. So, it was a big step forward and the book will be better for it.
