    No. I load that much ammo it's all in my head. There is certainly enough room for it and all the gear to reload it in there😆

    Unfortunatly my head is nearly full with other shit, (or maybe my head is just smaller) so need some way of recording the reload stuff.

    Could go the paper/book route, but i do like keeping stuff electronic.

    Just use the notebook on your phone.
    I use it for all sort of shit I would otherwise forget.

    I have been storing load data notes on my phone for a while now, used to use a book but kept losing/forgetting it and have my phone on me 24/7 so thought it made sense. Is there a app for storing tea loading data? I used to remember every thing when I started loading for one gun but now loading for few and get my numbers mixed up.

    I don't know how it can help but on the shooter app when you set up a "load/cartridge" to your rifle (can be multiple loads and conditions) you have a "comments" field where you can input all the info about that especific load.

    I hope it help.

    Cheers.

    If you have a google account "google Keep" is good, it syncs better PC and phone which is nice.

    I used to use a spreadsheet to track costs, it spat out cost per round. Now I really don't give a shit, and just buy and reload when I need to.

    I've got the 'Ballistic' app (Apple), which allows you to record all the info about your load - powder, bullet, charge weights, MV - and calculates a drop chart, on the info you've stored - for that specific data entry.
    Works really good.
    Haven't been able to find one for Android yet, that matches the flexibility of Ballistic.
    Waiting patiently, so I can use the phone too, and interchange files as necessary to keep data up to date.

    Ive just looked it up and set up on my PC and phone, and set up some Labels/notes to test, seems to work bloody well and the syncing is mint. Bloody handy, will use for all sorts now. Cheers.

    I wrote my own ballisitc app that includes provision for recording reloading data, but found it too time consuming ot recordd everything. I now use Onenote to record all info I want to remember...work home the whole lots in onenote.



    Onenote is on my work pc, home pc and android phone and synced between all three so same info is available anywhere
