Wrangler I think you must have an older version. My program came with all the cables and etc....I save my data because it can be that I might change my mind about a load somewhere down the road.

Thanks, amamnn. In the Ballistics II software, what format does it use to save the data? Is it a standard spreadsheet or word processing document that you can do something with in another program? I'm thinking about printouts here - my current practice is to lay my little printer strips on a copier and put 5 or 6 data sets on a single page, and put that in a 3-ring notebook that lives on my reloading bench and goes to the range with me. It can be very interesting to see the changes from 0.2g powder differences during a load workup, all laid out next to each other. Does your software allow that kind of flexibility in printing? If it does, I'd consider springing for the connectors and software instead of changing chronos.
