About

Load Intel

Features
Read full description

Load Intel is a reloading log designed for shooters who want their data organized, consistent, and always accessible—without accounts, cloud sync, or subscriptions tied to an identity. The app provides a structured way to record and manage load data over time, keeping experimental loads separate from proven ones so results stay clear and repeatable. Everything is stored locally on your device, making it reliable at the bench, at the range, or anywhere without service. Track essential load details including caliber, bullet, powder, charge weight, primer, brass, COAL, trim length, and notes. Log chrono results such as velocity, ES, and SD, along with group size and performance observations. Attach photos or videos to individual loads to document targets, brass condition, or test setups. Load Intel is built around long-term data integrity. Tested loads remain distinct from new experiments, edits are intentional, and backups are fully user-controlled through export and restore. There are no accounts to manage and no data stored on external servers—your load history stays with you as long as you keep a backup. Load Intel is intended as a practical, no-nonsense tool for reloaders who want their load data organized and dependable for years to come.
