Each load recipe represents a single data record to which you can associate multiple shooting records and multiple ballistic data records created as a result of test firing the new loads. You can record velocity, energy, and bullet drop at various distances under a variety of conditions. All of this information becomes invaluable when designing new recipes based upon previously recorded findings.
All fields are optional. However, the more information you enter, the more valuable the information will be, and the more likely you will be able to precisely duplicate the load in the future.
You can also print blank recipe forms that can be kept at the reloading bench and filled in when working up new loads.
The Shooting Data section is where you enter the results of how the load performed. Enter the shooting results for each firearm used to test the load on a separate row.
The Ballistics Table section is where you enter the performance data for the load. Create a separate row for each yardage. For example, you might create a ballistics table for 100, 200, and 300 yards.
Also included in the Reloading section is a Bullet Energy Calulator. Simply enter the bullet weight and speed, and the energy is calculated for you.
