Useful data, but not user friendly. I wish the app was more like the website.
I love Hodgdon reload data. There’s a ton of useful info. I wish they tabulated the load data so it can easily be found using a basic search function. Favorites would be great for a quick reference. Also, I’d like to see min and max loads for any given cartridge combo so I can confidently develop loadouts that work best for my firearm. Currently, I have to flip through pages and zoom in to read what they have. If I leave the app for too long, the book refreshes and I have to start my search all over again. I hope to see some simple improvements to make this more user friendly!

Data
Thanks for making this data available!!!!! 🙏💚
Cannot access since update , won’t restore my purchase.
Happy until my recent update, now I can’t access my reloading manual. I’ve emailed app support numerous times and no reply. I know it’s $13. But still it’s really the fact I lost access on a weekend I need it. Snowed and iced in.
Horrible Interface
This app is awful. Yes it’s nice having a digital version, but I can’t make an account to save it. Hogdon doesn’t actually have any affiliation with this app it’s ran by a third party. Every single time I open the app I have to hit the “restore purchases” tab to access the data.
Not an App - skip it
This is basically a pdf reader, minus all the functionality you would expect from the most basic reader. You can get the information for free from the Hodgdon website. I just got scammed out $12+. Don’t make my mistake. Reporting to Apple.
This app is worthless.
Buy a real paper manual if that’s why you are here. Just cost money for an electronic version that is nearly impossible to navigate.. plus not very many listed loads. Very disappointed. Love Hodgdon as a product. Normally
Doesn’t work!
After spending over an hour trying to get through disclaimers, start an account, and spending $13 dollars for loading data I still don’t have I gave up, all it would do is timeout and giver error after error, don’t waste your time.
Not a comprehensive reloading manual
Do not buy this if you need reloading data. It only lists a handful of cartridges unlike the online version (which hasn’t been working for two days; therefore, I purchased this worthless app).
Scrapped it
Ditched the app and Hodgdon. Everytime i get a great load they drop the powder so i dropped them. H-322 is nonexistent, 4166 dropped, the whole enduron line dropped. Then charge us for this data that is free online
Just buy the paper book
Thought this app would be the manual in app form (easy navigation to caliber, bullet weight, etc) but it’s just a PDF version of the book with no search options. You literally just swipe until you find the page you want.
This is not an app
If you’re coming to this so-called “app” to try to browse reloading data, you are not going to enjoy what you find. It is nothing more than a tiny little PDF of the manual that is laborious and frustrating to try to scroll through shame on Hodgkin for releasing such an outdated and barely useful thing and calling it their application.

Great update
This is a great update in addition to the already great loading manual. Adds some great additions to last years manual.
Great Info
All the hand loading info you need
Not user friendly or intuitive
I wanted to buy access to the 2024 manual. I have no idea how because I cannot find the option on your app. I got stuck in your 2024 preview and had to close the app by swiping up and deleting it from the menu.
I think I will just buy your paper manual. At least I can figure out how to use that without needing some special form of telepathy to do so.
Oh, and I am not going through the effort of sending an email as your app recommends.
Seriously, hire someone to fix this that knows what the heck they’re doing.

Hornady Reloading
This app has solid reloading content. However, it’s usability is poor. A user needs to scroll through the pages to access the appropriate page. There is no function to type in a page number.
Impossible to review
They just put their manual into a pdf. Very difficult to navigate — I just went back to using hard copy
DEEPLY regret spending my money on this.
This app is Hodgdon's annual reloading manuals, and the data inside is good data.
But the user interface is literally just a PDF of their book, and the app's PDF reader lacks basic functionality. Skip the app. Bookmark hodgdon's website and use that to find their load data.

User friendly.
Working with the reloading guide, I found it easy to follow and use. The selections really help focus on all the variables. Bringing load starting points and final choice with bullet and powder selections to the front while being able to plunk around with what-ifs as quickly as a touch of the finger. Hodgdon is a great partner to have close by.

Save your money!
I paid for a reloading manual, not a magazine with a bunch of adds. Doesn’t have data for most of my loads, not even with Hodgdon powder!
Disappointed
It won’t download the complete manual,I have to reload the data each time
