The photo viewer lets you swipe through your photos with ease. You may also share your photos with others (text, email, print, etc). ** Ammo database keeps track of your ammo by caliber and gun type. It automatically tracks ammo usage and costs while providing accurate and up to date quantity-on-hand totals. When used with the Range Sessions feature, the ammo database is automatically updated with the ammo used and rounds spent, thus providing accurate Qty-On-Hand totals.

The Range Analysis Tool digs even deeper to show all ammo used by a specific range gun as well as show all range guns that used specific ammo. ** Gun Cleaning List & Automatic Gun Cleaning Notifications. Each gun has a "Needs Cleaning" flag that gets updated when a gun is added to a range session (you can also manually add a gun to the Gun Cleaning List).

Automatic cleaning notifications are also sent to your phone and/or watch. ** Conceal Carry Permits allow you to keep all your CCW permit and related information safe and secure in one place.
