sorry - we cannot add the bullet based on the attqached datasheet. The specs for the bullet bottom shape are missing (i.e. length of boattail, diameter of bullet bottom). Hence, please request these bullets here by providing the necessary details: https://www.xxlreloading.com/request-new-bullet-to-be-added - Thansk

G1 and G7 BC figures for bullets?

It would be incredibly useful if the G1 and G7 BC values could be published for every bullet on the XXL database. I realise this could be quite a hefty exercise to find the respective data for each and every bullet, but you could rely on user input to populate the figures, along with the website they have used to retrieve it?

Also, ChatGPT (or any other AI, I suppose) is quite good at finding the information.

I'm often in the situation where I'm looking for a new bullet to buy for one of my calibres and it would be super helpful to see the BC values for the bullets in the XXL database, so that I can focus on a bullet/brand that meets my selection criteria.

we already publish the G1 BC data with every bullet where we have the information. You might be aware that most brands only issue BC G1 values and only few (or for few bullets) also G7. We are thinking about you proposal but it would be quite an effort on our side.

powder burn sort by caliber and bullet grain weight

When I sort powders by "powder burn desc" it seems the max load gets sorted... but not the starting load. I am I missing something

I see your confusion here. Both the MAX and START get sorted with highest velocity first. But the highest max load velocity does not necessarily corrospond to the highest starting load. So sorting gives you tow sorted lists with out correlation to each other. The two column table, changes to two tables when sorting. I would prefer that users chose to sort by the highest max load and have the starting loads match up that sorting. keeping the one table two columns design. That would also avoid confusion where users use incorrect starting load data, because they overlook that the powders no longer match up.

Hiding powder Manufacturers in Load Data View.

I do not have access to all the powders in the world. And while it is fun to look at what could be done, i think it's just noise. I would like in load data overview to be able to uncheck powder manufacturer and only see data for the manufacturers i can actually buy in my area.

We like this suggestion a lot! It is complex but we might have found a way to implement. Please go to the bottom of the "My Account " page to select the powder brands you like to consider and press the save button. THIS NEW FEATURE IS IN BETA - please let us know if it works properly! Enjoy😀

Use data from 270/08 and 270 Redding I have been shooting this for 25 years. The differance is a couple thousands on the case length. Done so SIG could cal it their own. Remember the spilt case military ops at much higher pressue. 120gr and 130gr SST or GMX woek wonders in this.

Accurate 11fs

Can we have load data for accurate11fs for 44 magnum

we can check for 44 Magnum. For which bullets are you looking for? Have you seen the comment "Any powder missing? Then click here." on the bottom of each load page. The link opens the following instructions:


Our default view of a load page only displays powders/loads that fulfill certain criteria:

  • Achieve Fill Rate > 80% and < 100%. The thresholds for revolver and pistol loads are > 60% and < 100%.

  • Max pressure of a load <=90% of Max. Standardized Pressure. 

  • Propellant Combustion for rifle loads >90% (lower values typically lead to unsteady results and strong muzzle flash)

  • Propellant Combustion for pistol/revolver loads >80%

Use the "Personalized Load Calculator" on the page (see tabs)  to relax these criteria and see more powders.


Does his already help / solve the matter?

New to XXL and have some concerns

Generally pleased, but...


  1. Missing calibers: 30-40 Krag, 7.7 Japanese,

  2. Slow loading pages or never finish loading, cant click buttons or blank grids

  3. Dropdowns sometimes have ice cream flavors

  4. No older discontinued powders?

  5. On Load Data: calibers/bullets/powder, highlight already bookmarked items

Still missing 7.7 Japanese Arisaka. Still unable to remove bookmarked calibers. Thanks.

Missing Items

Alpha is missing from the list of cartridge manufacturers.

When trying to add a cartridge case, selecting Other manufacturer causes the add to fail.

DTAC (David Tubb) is missing from the list of bullet manufacturers.

There is no ability to select the primer from the personalized load page. It assumes one primer size, such as LRP for 6mm Creedmoor, when the reality is that brass is available from multiple manufacturers in 6mm Creedmoor caliber with both LR and SR primer pockets.

Thanks for the constructive feedback - much appreciated! We added Alpha, we added DTAC. We tested "Others" but could not encounter the issue you are describing.


We understand the Primer Size comment but need to think if/how we can solve as this would be a major change in the data model. Keepo you posted 👍

45-70 Subsonic Load Data

Any plans on expanding the Subsonic load data to include the 45-70 (lever rifle). Maker .458 400gr, Hornady .458 410gr Sub-X. New to Subsonic Reloading and not alot of info out there. Hodgdon has the Hornady 410gr Sub-X with TiteGroup and I have seen Trail Boss mentioned but it is non existant.

Thanks for all the info this site provides

Max Fill % variable needed

There needs to be a user-adjustable maximum fill ratio when filtering loads. This site appears to filter out all loads that approach or go over 100% fill ratio. Errors in the site's powder bulk densities can erroneously filter out known good loads, handicapping certain powders below max. pressure because the calculator thinks the case is full. H4350 appears to be an example: I have many known good loads in 7mm-08 and 300WSM that are within all book load limits that either get filtered out or are severely handicapped due to 100% fill ratio on this site, when in reality they are not compressed loads.

Weapon Options in MyDiary

Hi,


Getting familiar with the site and playing with the MyDiary. Couple questions.


Under Weapons could you add two fields?

  1. Barrel Twist Rate

  2. Sight Height


Also, when in MyDiary, when I click on a load you provide a nice sheet with the all the details. But I am not able to click on the load under my weapon. Something that would be helpful is if when you click on the load under the weapon it would bring in the weapon details to the top section. If it could generate a PDF for download ... you could then print it out and take it to the range to record results.

Inventory Option with Load Data Matches

Hi, newbie to the site but I am loving it already. Something I would like to suggest.


Could you add an inventory section for the user and then allow the inventory to drive matches to the load data.


Example: I have two Hornady Bullets .308 150gr SST and a GMX.

I have five powders, Alliant R15, Hodgdon H380 & Leverevolution, Ramshot Big Game and Terminator.


The inventory list would be limited to what is in the database.


By entering via drop downs for inventory it would work similarly to the way the site does it now...but instead it would give me loads that match my inventory. (I am trying to do this via the diary right now ... but my inventory is 23 powders and 53 bullet types (some which are not in the database). If I could enter what I have and the system shows matches for those combos.

We have released in BETA some new functionality:

  • you can now also bookmark bullets, powders and calibers and make them that way your „inventory „

  • You can also view all of them under „My Bookmarks „

  • You can filter all our loads by selecting your inventory items

Have a look and let us know what you think.

Navigating BACK from bullet load

Hello,

When selecting a specific bullet weight from the list of bullets for a calibre, we navigate to the details for that bullet. However, when you want to go BACK to the list of bullets from the list you selected from, the site takes you all the way back to the original LOAD page, where you have to select the calibre (and bullet weight, etc.) again.

I would be great if, from a specific load page, we could navigate back to the previous page, being the list that we selected from. So maybe a "back button" to return to the selection list?

Thanks!

Thanks - good suggestion and on our list. Unfortznatly quite complex as we would need to generate a dedicated URL for each possible combination. For now, the best work around is to open thd desired load in a new tab with a right click or by holding STRG key while clicking desired load.

.375 H&H 220gr bullets?

Hello.

There are lots of bullet weights available in the load data for .375 H&H, but nothing at all for a 220gr bullet. I want to use a locally produced bullet here in South Africa from SUS-TAC (Bullet Specifications - https://sus-tac.co.za/index.php/bullet-specifications)

ree

Also the .375 220gr bullets from Viper Bullets (another South African produced bullet - VERY well priced) at BC & Twist: Plains Supreme – Viper Bullets - https://www.viperbullets.com/bc-and-twist-plains-supreme/

Thanks and regards,

Des

We will shortly add SUS-TAC bullets and load data where we have necessary specifications. Regarding Viper - they do not list critical information on their website such as length, length of boat tail, diameter at bullet bottom ... Please send me these specs of the bullets you want us to add and we give it a shot.

We can not implement a drag and move. As an action, we can set the default sort not by date but by caliber and then by charge. Would that be useful?
