QuickLoad software?

[SpeedyR]

so I've always heard in reloading discussions about QuickLoad software for checking loads and other data related to hand loading.

I found it online, looks like it's UK based and no downloads, and no Mac version (not as big a deal but I did get a silicon mac recently).

anyone have any thoughts on it and if it's worth it?

I have a few odd/older calibers, as well as some stuff that's a bit out of the norm (custom lead molds for things like a 6.8spc) where it might be nice to have some additional data point for reloading...

It's a good program for guesstimate oddball loads. I've never dabbled so I've never purchased it. Everyone who buys it seems happy with it though

I bought it a couple months ago. Thought it might help me come up with some 6.8 Western loads. I entered tons of info into the program, measured fired case volumes, measured bullet dimensions, etc and the velocities it came up with were WAY off what I was getting. So I haven't messed with it since. I need to use it for another more common cartridge to see if its predictions are more inline with real world.

Great feedback. If you come to any other conclusion post up your future thoughts.
