Ballistics software
I am considering purchasing either the Sierra or Hornady ballistics software, as I think that information would be useful from time to time. Anyone have any reccomendations on which program is better or perhaps other similar programs?

Re: Ballistics software
Orion: I posted this exact same question almost a year ago here. The consensus was that the best out there is Quick-Load, but spendy, and actually has more features than I'd ever need or use. I had the older RCBS.Load, but it was on the 3.5" floppy format....dead now, so it was time to replace.
I ended up getting the Sierra Infinity software, as it includes the .20 cals. I don't have any experience with the Hornady, so can't be objective there, but so far, the Sierra Infinity 6.0 has done everything I've asked of it, and has more I haven't even cracked yet. Very good program, easy to use, and tons of good info.

Re: Ballistics software
Thanks Rick,
I was going to ask if Infinity has .20 cal info, but you answered that. I think it would be worth the price of admission just to have for future load development for the .20 and other cals as well.
