Loading App Recommendation - kpswihart - 03-31-2020

I've looked around some, but haven't found an app that fits the bill. Anyone have any recommendations on a easy to use iOS app that allows you to enter and store load data and range results? Maybe something that exports to excel? I don't mind spending a few bucks to get an app that is intuitive, captures the data I'd like to track, and then turns it into a usable set. Info would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know of any app's, but a cheap one subject notebook from wal-mart is perfect for keeping and tracking data.

Shooter, StrelokPro and BallisticsARC all have note and data fields. StrelokPro will allow export to XLS. Have Hornady 4DOF and Ballistic AE, in my phone as well, but these are first 3 I looked at. Would expect similar capabilities.

Appreciate the responses. My hope is to find something that allows me to enter load data, then organizes the data and stores it in an easy to search and access format.

The older I get, the more trouble I have with the “search” function with mine.

BallisticsARC has a print range card function that’s nice. But am following this thread with same interest as OP.

What -- you mean not just a ballistic app, but one that has some smarts too, to help out us old guys???
Following this too!!

Also following. My notes/records are a mess.

I have a spreadsheet i made on Excel but it isn't really "searchable data" or anything. I have a different sheet for each gun. I keep them in a 3 ring binder and most of them I also enter the data on my computer and reprint them so i have a back-up and can read them. I would be happy to share it- if i can figure out how!
Here are a couple more complex ones:

I use 5 x 8 mini hardcover notebooks from the dollar store. Different colors for different calibers.


Loading App Recommendation - grayfox - 04-05-2020

My load data is all in excel tables, one file per caliber.
All the powder and bullet choices are down the left, and powder ranges/select loads and associated MVs fill out the lines going to the right.
Plus some graphs, and calculations added in, while looking for nodes.
Within a caliber file, if I have 2+ rifles then each one has its own tab.
Trajectories, scope dope, windage I get via pointblank (PC) or strelok (amateur - free) on Ipad.
