Bullet Library
The Bullet Library is a reference list of known bullets you can browse by manufacturer and caliber. Use it to look up a bullet’s details or confirm your load is listed, whether or not you are about to start a profile.

Section titled “Browse the library”- Open Ballistics and start a new profile.
- Choose Bullet Library.
- Pick a manufacturer.

Search for the sample load
Section titled “Search for the sample load”For the worked example used across these docs, look for:

Using what you find
Section titled “Using what you find”Browsing the library on its own is useful for checking whether a bullet is listed or comparing its published data against your own notes. When you are ready to build a profile from a bullet you found here, follow Create from Bullet Library, which picks up right where this page leaves off.
- Match the bullet exactly when you can.
- Use the library as a reference, then confirm the values against your own rifle and load.
- If your exact load is not listed, use Create a Simple Profile or Create an Advanced Profile.
