Do you remember your best Hit Factor from last month? How many shots have you fired from that particular gun over the past year? How wide was the spread in your last 25-meter precision shooting series? If you’re not sure, it’s time to stop keeping track on paper, in notes, or in Excel. ShootersLogBook is a logbook designed for competitive shooters. For IPSC, IDPA, and other dynamic disciplines. In English, no account required, no cloud storage—everything stays right on your phone. You’ll stop guessing your progress and start seeing it. Every Hit Factor, every stage time, every hit on the target—everything is saved, searchable, and comparable. You log your training right on the spot. Stage by stage, hit by hit. The app calculates your points and Hit Factor. Do you know how many rounds you’ve fired? From which gun? And what calibers? Track ammunition fired, linked to a specific firearm and caliber. Filter by date, firearm, or cartridge. A single training session can easily include 100 rounds of 9x19 from a pistol and 30 rounds of .223 from a rifle—the app handles it all. DryFire timer with adjustable par time, delay, and repetition. Every training session is logged in the calendar. Target evaluation right from your phone. Take a photo of the target, calibrate two points at a known distance, and the app calculates the Extreme Spread in centimeters and MOA. Documents you won’t forget. Firearms license, international license, medical certificate—all with reminders before expiration. No unpleasant surprises. EVERYTHING IN ONE APP • Training and competition logs with location, date, and notes • IPSC-style HF calculator (Alpha/Charlie/Delta, Major/Minor Power Factor) • Stage logs with automatic calculation of points and HF • Weapon inventory (handgun, rifle, PCC, shotgun, small-caliber rifle, precision rifle, revolver, custom) • Predefined calibers (9x19, .223, .22 LR, 7.62x39, .308 Win, .40 S&W, .45 ACP) + custom • Track your progress on custom stages (My Stages) with photos and HF history • Disciplines of your choice (IPSC, IDPA, LOS, PSCL, 2Gun, 3Gun, or custom) • Activity calendar with color-coded training sessions, competitions, and dry fire • Data export and import (JSON) — backups and transfers between devices PRIVACY FIRST No accounts. No cloud syncing. No logins. The app doesn’t send or collect your data. Everything stays on your phone, where it belongs. WHO IT’S FOR For club shooters who want to know if they’re improving. For competitive shooters who need an overview of all their competitions. For anyone who owns more than one firearm and wants to keep their ammunition organized. For anyone who’s tired of keeping a log in a paper notebook. Download ShootersLogBook and take your training as seriously as it deserves.
