Re: Gordon's Reloading Tool
Interesting. Very much a clone of Quickload with some useful add-ons.
Just added in my 8x68S TTSX load as a comparison with Quickload. It is under max in Quickload, but a bit over-pressure with Gordon's. Different initiation pressure but I've no idea how to judge what the correct setting should be. The estimated MV is about bang-on with Gordon's but underestimated by Quickload, so maybe that is something to play with - together with a chrony... . Both close enough to be super helpful for load development. I'll play a bit more and see how useful some of the other features turn out to be.

Re: Gordon's Reloading Tool
Ive downloaded and installed it tonight, had a bit of a play with a few loads ive just loaded up for testing, will be interesting to see how they compare, ill run them all over the crono and see what they come back like.
Its missing a few of the ADI powders but i assume they will get added as it get more popular.

If all relevant info is entered correctly... it actually gives very good predictions.
It was about 0.5 % difference between prediction and real data from a friends 300 norma magnum.
