Reloading All Day Development provides the individual handloader to record all of his notes in one place with great detail. Finally, offering the ability to record over 65+ different handloading data points and 5 different charts for load development, one can surely find everything they need to record their information into with an easy to navigate interface. We value the importance of information by providing the tools necessary to improve the individual handloading experience. Most of all, being reloaders ourselves, we understand and listen to the individual handloader and provide virtually everything one would want to record. Our app specifically provides Rifle Specs, Case Preparation, Bullet, Powder, and Environment data points for you to record. Along with 5 other charts to track load development in great detail. For example, our Case Preparation category has many data inputs: Case Brand, Lot Number, Shell Plate Number, Number of Case Firings, Is the Case Annealed?, Case Neck Thickness, Volumetric Weight of Cases on Average, Neck Expanding Mandrel Size, Bushing Size, Full-Length, Full-Length Bushing, Neck-sizing, Flash Holes, Are Flash Holes Uniformed?, Flash Hole Size, Beginning Shoulder Depth, Shoulder Setback, Neck Tension, Case Trim Length, Is Donut Removed?, Neck Turn?, Case Mouth Runout, Primer Type, Primer Pocket Depth, Primer Height from Bottom of Cup to Top of Cup, Bottom of Primer to Top of Anvil, How Far is Primer Below Flush of Case Head?, Chamfer and Deburring angle. As one can see, this is just one aspect of the options we allow users to record their information into. Our main goal with this app is to provide you with the tools necessary to step outside of the box and ultimately help improve your processes. • Easy to navigate • 1 GB converts to over 500+ loads • 27 different data points for just case prep • 65+ different data points for you to record • 5 different charts for load development • No need for cellular service to access notes or use the app • 6+ of more updates planned. • Active community outreach to listen to what you want to see on the app and making it become a reality.

Load development with the ability to compute shot group accuracy using our built-in shot group calculator. Load Data is an all-in-one inclusive reloading experience, from the reloading bench all the way to the range! At the reloading bench, use loads to develop a new load or fine tune an existing load. Create multiple load variations to accommodate for slight powder charge or seat depth variations. At the range, use range reports to get shot group spread, size and aim-to-zero measurements. Record the environmental conditions to understand how consistent the load is at various climates. -Develop and store load and load variations. -Store firearm information for ballistics and range reports. -Record range reports with multiple shot groups. -Get precise extreme spread (moa/in), group size (in), aim-to-zero (moa) from shot groups. -Stores shot groups in a list to compare load variations. -Change shot group reticle colors to ease in adding shots to target. -Store environmental conditions for each shot group. -Reloading components from most major reloading component manufacturers (over 2000 preloaded components). -Easily search for components to save time. -Multiple areas to add notes at any phase of load development. Typical Usage -Develop load/variations in the loads tab. -Add firearm used for reference in range reports. -Shoot targets. (optional) -Collect targets, open range reports tab and start adding shot groups. -View shot groups and compare results to determine best load variation for firearm/conditions.
