Hornady Reloading Data, Wherever the Bench Is: The Handbook and App

Every accurate handload starts with the right data, and Hornady® makes sure that data is never out of reach — whether a reloader is at a fixed bench, working out of a truck, or double-checking a load at the range. The Hornady® Handbook of Cartridge Reloading and its companion Reloading App put more than 1,000 pages of verified load data at a reloader's fingertips, in whatever format fits how they work.

For reloaders who want a permanent reference on the bench, the Handbook remains available as a hardcover book, packed with data across rifle and handgun cartridges for every Hornady bullet. The same content is available as an eBook through Apple Books and Amazon Kindle, for reloaders who'd rather keep their data on a tablet or e-reader than take up shelf space.

The Hornady Reloading App takes that same library and puts it in a reloader's pocket. Available on iOS and Android, the app lets users save favorite loads, add personal notes on the calibers and charges they use most, and pull up verified data mid-session without cracking open a book. Reloaders can buy data by the cartridge for as little as 99¢, or unlock the full library with an annual subscription at $19.99 — which also delivers new load data as soon as it's available, ahead of the next printed edition of the Handbook.

Whichever format a reloader chooses, the goal is the same: accurate, dependable data that keeps every round consistent, from the first pull of the handle to the last.
