It was announced that Gordon has passed away, may he RIP.


I just wanted to reach out and let you know that my husband Gordon passed away on January 19th 2022.

Until further notice, this site stays online. Please note that Patreon contributions have been paused.

Initially, no additional submissions should be made to the GRTLab, or Translations, as no one has access to service the data.
Therefore, it will be impossible to update Powder Models, Calibers, and Bullet to the GRT database as an official release until the possibilities of continuing Gordon's fine work are explored.


Take care!
Chrissi

If you were curious about it and haven't downloaded the software, now may be a good time as it's future is uncertain. I hope someone picks up the development for this, it is a great free asset for the shooting community.

Here is the site: GRT Community site (https://grtools.de/doku.php)

And here are all the official videos in English or English subs.

I had downloaded this sometime back, but honestly never used it due to other projects. I decided to load it onto my new PC and discovered the announcement and thought others should know since I have seen it mentioned on a few forums I get on. I was looking to see if there was any places to get user entered data, like bullets (cast or commercial) not already in it. I have begun a workup on a 6.5 CM, but with the lack of powders and other components, this tool would be even more beneficial.

I used that sometime back, enough with data I had already gathered to know it was fairly accurate. Sorry for his passing, lots of knowledge lost every day.
