Load Intel
Read full descriptionHide 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.
Lead Log

Lead Log is a simple, private way to keep track of your own range activity, firearms, and ammunition. Everything stays on your device. There are no accounts, no ads, and nothing is ever uploaded or shared. Log Session: Record a range trip in seconds. Pick the firearm you used, log the rounds fired and the ammo you went through, attach a photo of your target if you want one, and add notes. Lead Log flags unusual entries, like a sudden jump in round count, so a typo does not throw off your history. Inventory: Keep a complete record of every firearm you own, including manufacturer, model, category, serial number, rounds fired since last service, and a photo. Track your ammunition the same way, by caliber, brand, grain weight, and quantity on hand, with low stock alerts so you know when it is time to restock. History: Browse your full shooting history, grouped by firearm, ammo, or date. Search across everything to find a specific session in seconds. Built for legal firearm owners who want an organized personal log. Lead Log has no marketplace, no buying or selling, and no trading features of any kind. It is strictly a record-keeping tool for your own use. Your privacy comes first. All data is stored locally on your device using Apple's on-device storage. Nothing is transmitted anywhere, there is no sign-in required, and there is no internet connection needed to use the app.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lead Log at none against Load Intel's 1. Load Intel's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
