APP for comparing many loads at once? Thinking weight+speed+BC= Drop.

I'm looking for advice or info on a APP or program to input a few (or many) different load scenarios to find the sweet spot for bullet weight Vs. speed Vs.BC to inches or MOA dropped at a given distance. I have the Strelok APP now that I use but you have to input each recipe and remember or jot down each load. I'd like to have a chart with many different loads displayed on once.

For conversations sake, I'm currently shooting a basic 7mm Rem and am limited by powder capacity so I'm wanting to explore lighter faster bullet combos to see relative minutes dropped.
 
ColdBore 1.0 by Patagonia Ballistics allows for 6 loads/tracks to be compared at a time. This is not a Free app. Costs about $150 for both the Desktop and Mobile versions. $85 for Desktop only. You'd want Desktop for what you're interested in doing.

From their website:
"ColdBore© Desktop edition six independent tracks let you see all the results at the same time either in tabular format ( as numerical values ) or as graphical plots."

Their may be other programs or apps that do this at a lesser cost. ColdBore 1.0 is the only one I've used extensively.
 
I run QuickLoad and what I have done but not a lot is work up the load then take a screen shot with the windows snipping tool. Once you have done 3-4 or more just bring all up on screen side by side and compare. You can have QuickLoad or whatever running on the side so if you want to change a particular load its simple and quick.

Anyway works for me when I want to compare loads like for 2-3 different bullets.
 
If I understand your question right, the shooter app should do what you want.

In Quicktarget (the companion program with Quickload) you can set up several "reference" loads and graph them simultaneously over top of each other for more precise comparisons.
