How often do you purchase the updates for the software? I've had my software for a year and a half, I just got an update for my bullet and powder files but at $20 an update I wonder how often it is really necessary. Thoughts? | ||

I've done one update in 3 1/2 years. | |||

My bullet and powder files have been up dated, I just need to update the program. I’ve been meaning to update the program for the last year or so, I just haven’t done it yet. I’m still running 3.2 | |||

From what I was told when I called about the update files that I used to be able to download they only update the bullet files, the only way to get updated powder files is to purchase the update. I have version 3.4 but my powder files are not current | |||

Interesting, maybe I’m behind the times. It’s been a while since I did anything with QL updates. I may not have up to date powder files after all. I need to check it out. Did you own 3.2? how does 3.4 compare to 3.2? | |||

I've never used 3.2 , when I called them up about the update they mentioned they had 3.5 but the website still lists 3.4 so I'm thinking the must be launching 3.5 very soon. | |||

Well I guess it's time to upgrade, I procrastinated long enough. | |||

I know I will be the minority here, but I have never found a need for QL or anything similar. I guess I prefer my own experience and tend not to trust programs as that, particular after problems and quirks have surfaced since its inception. I know there are benefits, but it's just not for me.

Absolutely. Not only do they add new data, also some powders have been modified. It's a great program, the piece of software I like most. It's just a pity it doesn't run under Linux. If it would, Bill Gates would disappear from my computer... | |||

Who is THEY? And where can you download the latest bullet data? I'm not aware that Broemel is online anywhere. | |||

There was a link on their website for the bullet update, I no longer see that free update available. I'm pretty sure I've seen Broemel online over at 24hour campfire forums under the reloading software forum. | |||

Bobby, I'm with you on this one. I've also found the trajectory tables don't agree with real world results. I started reloading in 1960 and have gotten by just fine without one. I have RCBS Load on my p/c but never use it for the same reasons. Take Care. Dennis NRA Life Member | |||

QL isn’t a program for every one. For most people the cost of QL would be better spent on expanding their printed reloading book libraries. | |||
