For a man of your apparent reloading status, you should give it a try before dismissing it as an off-the-wall ballistic calculator. The guy that wrote the program is far more knowledgable regarding internal and external ballistics than all of us on this forum combined. Try it and find out for yourself.
Using the OPs example, if Quickload calculated a velocity of 3133fps, and a proven chronograph such as a magnetospeed was reading an average of 3422fps, what would you estimate the actual velocity to be? Don't try and deflect the question or change the topic, just answer the question.
