Looks like we may now have a QuickLoad alternative.
Gordon's Reloading Tool is a free modern Professional internal ballistic simulation for reloaders.
Gordon's Reloading Tool is a free modern Professional internal ballistic simulation for reloaders.
The Gordons Reloading Tool “GRT” is a software for handloaders and ammunition designers. It simulates combustion characterisics, pressures and bullet speeds through ballistic parameters and formulas.
GRT's purpose is to provide additional means to develop loads for handloaders and ammunition designers and to avoid excessive loads, weapons disintegration/fragmentation and/or injuries.
