About The Loading Bench

Stay Tuned: We have big updates on the way!

We have had some great suggestions for how to improve the app and are working on several of them now. If you have any suggestions, feel free to email us at: support@theindieprogrammer.com

TIP: When searching for load data, try to avoid using the generic bullets like "180 GR. Bullet" or "180 GR. FMJ." Those contain data, but very little. The reason for this is that we get our data from respected sources and not much is listed for generic bullets. Even if you are using a generic bullet, know its properties and search for an equivalent name brand bullet and you will find far more powders and load information.

The Loading Bench is a comprehensive app for anyone who loads their own ammunition. Our database pulls from nearly every commercial source as well as some highly respected individuals in the reloading community.

Features include:

* Search the entire database for load data on over 30,000 different loads.
* Search for two cartridges that have loads with the same powder (useful for shopping trips!).
* Build and share your own recipes from scratch, or copy a database load into a recipe and modify it as you like.
* Calculate the cost of your reloads based on your bulk costs, and attach those costs to a recipe.
* Take pictures of your shot groupings and attach those pictures to a recipe for future comparison.
* All data is included in the initial app purchase. No extra purchases for more data!

The Loading Bench is like having a reloading book, plus your own notebooks and historical groupings, all in the palm of your hand. Written by avid sportsmen, shooters and reloaders, for other sportsmen, shooters, and reloaders, you won't be disappointed by this app.

Never gets updated. How about a way to backup your data.

I use this app to determine which powders i can use in multiple calibers and for a quick recipe for a round I'm starting. Great app!

X70%
by X####:

I like the foundation of this app. I'm sure it will get better and better as data is added over time. Still, realistically, one can't expect to find as much data here as you would in a loading book/website. The one thing that's bugging me is that there does not appear that I can enter any data for powder. Seems like you can only choose from a small set of powders. It would also be fantastic if we could record range session data and associate it with a particular recipe. Sort of a shooting log.

App has a lot of potential. I had to upgrade my review after using the app for a couple days. It would also be nice to catalog firearms and be able to have a list of favorite recipe's under certain firearms.

by X####:

Ok app, I guess. The powders seem to be a bit limited. Would be awesome if it had a tool that would allow you to enter an available powder and get all the calibers that the powder is used for. These days, you can't cherry pick your powders and we are having to use what ever we can find. I feel that this app would get a perfect score if it had such a tool.

Useful! Lots of features packed into one app... It'll stay in my arsenal for sure.

Has every cartridge I use and the rest of the app features are a nice plus! I look forward to using this app, its well worth the price.

Doesn't have all calibers or powder data that is out there for free. It was a bad purchase, but no one expressed their feelings on it.
