Not to derail, but I just inherited a bunch of reloading equipment (no I don't want to sell). All of the reloading books are from the mid to late 70's. What is a good new manual to buy? This is for centrefire rifle ammunition.

You can get a lot of info from Hodgdon’s website without buying anything.
A good first Manuel is Lyman’s Manuel. They have assorted bullets and powder. The Hornady and nosler Manuel’s are good but they are limited to only their bullets.

civiltiger07 is correct on both counts.
If one of those manuals is a Lyman then you are good to go for reloading instructions. The steps for reloading have not change.
As for data the Hodgdon’s site is good and will get you up to date data.

I've liked every handloading manual I've looked at.
Having said that, if I could have only one, it'd prob be Hornady. As others mentioned, there's lots of good load data online from the major manufacturers (Nosler, Hodgdon and Sierra come to mind). I REALLY like the Sierra handloading app. 
Be careful of online load data from individuals.
