Load Intel vs Handload

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.

Handload is a free reloading log and load development tool for handloaders who want to find their rifle's most accurate load — and keep every record safe. Brand-neutral by design. Log any powder, any bullet, any primer, any brass, from any manufacturer. RELOADING LOG Record every load recipe: cartridge, firearm, powder and charge weight, bullet, primer, brass, and seating depth (COAL/CBTO). Every load is tied to the rifle you shot it in, so your history stays organized. LOAD DEVELOPMENT Run charge weight ladders, OCW tests, and seating depth tuning. Enter your chronograph string and Handload calculates average velocity, extreme spread, and standard deviation automatically. The velocity chart highlights the flat spot — the accuracy node — so you can see exactly where your load stabilizes. GROUP AND ACCURACY TRACKING Log group size in MOA or millimetres, track accuracy across charge weights, and compare loads side by side to see which one your rifle actually prefers. COMPONENT INVENTORY Track powder, primers, bullets, and brass by quantity, lot number, and cost. Low stock alerts warn you before you run out mid-project. COST PER ROUND See what each round costs to load, broken down by component, with a break-even comparison against factory ammunition. BRASS AND BARREL LIFE Track case firings, trim length, primer pocket condition, and annealing. Keep a round count per barrel so you always know where you stand on throat erosion. YOUR DATA STAYS SAFE Cloud backup and sync, plus CSV and PDF export. No more losing years of load records to a dead phone. METRIC AND IMPERIAL Full support for grains and grams, fps and m/s, inches, MOA and mrad. FREE No ads. Core features free. SAFETY Handload is a record keeping and analysis tool. It does not supply load data and does not tell you what is safe to load. Always follow current published data from your powder, bullet and primer manufacturer, start low, and work up carefully. You are responsible for the safety of every round you load.
