### 3/5 — It’s ok challenge looks outdated

*2026-04-19*

Its works ok look and feel is old. I have used the android app version and it’s 1000 times better and it could use doe refinement. I wish the iPhone version was better.

### 5/5 — Calculator

*2025-04-19*

Works great to estimate cost of reload vs otc boxes of ammo.

### 5/5 — Very handy tool

*2024-07-23*

Been using this app for years.  
It is my go-to for a starting point, often, I only refer to a paper manual as a cross check.
Lots of good load data, some of it not in the main manuals, and there is the ability to journal data from work-up.
Nice to be able to tag preferred loads within the data for each caliber.
Recommend this app

### 3/5 — Reloading recipe

*2024-04-19*

The app keeps crashing when I when I try to bring up the Reloading recipes. Could somebody please tell me what’s going on since I’m paying for this thing thank you.

### 3/5 — Needs more 20 gauge tss loads

*2024-02-19*

I dont see any 20 guage loads for tss.

### 1/5 — Absolute waste of money

*2021-02-23*

Purchased because of the calculator and something to save notes when on the range. App is very hard to navigate, no way to delete mistakes, won’t allow me to enter my data I only have to pick data someone entered into the app.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2021-01-01*

The app design is ancient and confusing. Manufacturers like Geco are not available. Useless for me. I would appreciate to get my money back.

### 3/5 — App Not working

*2020-11-27*

I have updated to iOS 14.2.1 and now the app doesn’t work. I can not select anything and view any data. Can you please fix / update you app. I really enjoy using it.

### 1/5 — Waste of money! Do not buy!!!

*2020-11-23*

Opened the app thinking I’d be able to use it and make new load data and the app dose not work no writing empty boxes with no content! Like my money back!!

### 1/5 — Somewhat user friendly. Maybe a little bit useful.

*2020-09-15*

There is a lot of data missing. No loads at all for 62 grain in .223. No info at all for 5.56. No info at all for .38 ACP
