Orme's Recoil Index
A gentleman’s companion for understanding rifle and revolver recoil.
About the App
Orme’s Recoil Index is a refined utility designed for shooters, sportsmen, collectors, and the ballistically curious. Inspired by Orme Dumas—storyteller, collector, and a man of discerning taste—this app calculates and classifies recoil with style and clarity.
Enter your firearm specs—weight, twist rate, bullet diameter, powder charge, and velocity—and the app provides recoil energy, bullet spin, and most importantly… comfort level.
Key Features
- Supports both rifle and revolver inputs
- Accounts for muzzle brakes and suppressors
- Estimates angular spin from twist and bullet specs
- Comfort scale includes “Manageable with Tea” and “Consult a Bonesetter”
- Designed for offline use — no internet required
Designed for Discretion
This app collects no personal data, uses no analytics, and contains no advertising. All calculations are performed locally on your device. Orme would have it no other way.
Platform Availability
Available now on iPhone and iPad via the Apple App Store. The app is designed to work seamlessly on modern iOS devices, supporting both compact and large screen layouts.
Android version under consideration.
