gunner Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 hello QL users , iv been using QL for just a few months now , the thing i cant work out is , is there a drop chart once youv put in all the data ? for clicks, moa etc? as iv used other balistics such as ' big game info external bal calculator ' alltho its abit simpler .. they show the corections needed! but also need tweaking some when in the field! The version is 3.6 !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 You should have a companion piece of software called Quicktarget which will import your INTERNAL ballistics data (Quickload) and produce a drop chart for you ... reasonably accurate but get Bryan Litz software if you can.... goes on Android phone.

Alycidon Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 The Biggameinfo charts are better, gives drops and drifts in inches as well as cliks. I have Quickload/quicktarget but prefer the free Bigagmeinfo chart, http://www.biggameinfo.com/BalCalc.aspx A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alycidon Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Where Quickload excels is in the 'what if' load calcs. You can change powders. loads, bullets, seating depth, barrel length etc and see what pressures ( the most important bit !!) and speeds are. Suggest you want the pressure on the graph just kissing the pink section, thats plenty hot enough. Remember though that the info is theoretical and you would still have to work your loads up in the normal manner. A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Amen to that-checking pressure should be mandatory if loads given on site are above the 'book' maxima,AND those pressures should be given too- with some 'warning' to new reloaders that they are into the ragged edge regions. "Kissing the pink "sounds about right,before someone gets completely snookered.And the sport is outlawed. george Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Quickload and quick target should be viewed as separate things nice thing is importing load data. To be fair I find the velocity estimated is often down on that achieved, sometimes quite markedly so. I also think the pressure estimates are pretty much worst case scenario I have yet to find a maximum I cannot safely exceed without getting any sign (don't suppose that's a bad thing). I often play with stuff as side by side comparisons are often interesting in their own right ( can I outrun the wind over bucking it, what is the difference in two different cartridges etc ) the data you get from real chonoed velocities are pretty good though due to the estimates and actuals being out on speed............
