On this page you'll find software we are making
available to the public for free, or software we developed
for other companies who are making it available to the public
for free. Some may ask, why give away software for free? Well,
free software is to the web what free pencils, pens, key chains
and calendars are to brick-and-mortar businesses. It's an
effective way of letting people know who we are and where
in cyberspace they can find us.
All programs on this page were developed by
Dexadine, Inc., so you can have confidence there's no malicious
code attached or any hidden payload. All of our products are
digitally signed with our name, and thus, our reputation.

Federal® Ammunition and Ballistics Catalog
Federal's award winning Ammunition and Ballistics
Catalog is updated for 2010. The program runs on Windows®
2000, XP, Vista, or Windows® 7. Supports both 32 and 64 bit
editions of Windows®. The program uses less than 5 MB of hard
drive space even though it contains a great many bullet and
packaging images as well as data for all of Federal's 2010
rifle, pistol, rimfire, slug, and shotshell loads.
As before, the Ammunition and Ballistics catalog
allows you to change shooting conditions such as temperature,
altitude, crosswind, and sight height to those that match
your conditions and then recalculate the velocity, energy,
wind drift, and trajectory based on your settings. You can
also change the zero range to see how the bullet path changes
for other ranges.
The 2010 Ammunition and Ballistics catalog gives
you the ability to quickly compare loads both in tabular and
graphical form. You can even print out the comparison data
and graphs.
As before you can quicly select loads by brand,
bullet, caliber and usage. Other options allow you to change
the color of various parts of the data grid, font size, English
or metric units, and even turn some columns off if you don't
need that data. Once you've found a load you like, you can
print a handy report to take with you to the ammo store.
The program includes a pop-up Ammo Expert that
will help you quickly find just the load you're looking for
without manually searching the entire catalog.
Dexadine developed the program for Federal®,
so use this link to the Federal®
web site to get to the page where you can download
it. The program is Free,
so just click their link to download the "setup.exe" file
(2.5 MB) to your hard drive. Once it's on your hard drive,
just run the program to install the catalog. The software
is digitally signed by Dexadine, Inc. If you're new to downloading
programs, see the instructions at the top of our Download
page.

Fusion™ Ammunition and Ballistics Catalog
Fusion ammunition is designed specifically by
Federal for whitetail deer hunting. The Fusion Ammunition
and Ballistics Catalog has all the same award winning features
of the Federal Ammunition and Ballistics Catalog. These features
give shooters easy access to all the information for the ammunition
in the catalog customized to their own shooting conditions.
The program runs on Windows® 2000, XP, Vista, or Windows®
7. Supports both 32 and 64 bit editions of Windows®.
The Federal web team produces arguably the best
websites in the ammunition industry, yet they recognize the
unique capabilities that only downloadable applications can
offer, such as near instantaneous responsiveness regardless
of the speed of your internet connection, or even lack of
it. Such applications are not limited to a browser interface,
nor the one-page-at-a-time view so common on the web, but
offer users an interface customized for the specific purpose
they serve.
Dexadine developed the program for Federal®,
so you need to go to their Fusion
website to download it. To find the download link,
view any of the products such as "Handgun" and then
look for a link to "download our ballistics application"
near the bottom of the page. Note that the applicaton works
in both metric and english units. Once you click their link
to download, save the "fusion2010_setup.exe" file (1.2 MB)
to your hard drive. Once it's on your hard drive, just run
the program to install the catalog. If you're new to downloading
programs, see the instructions at the top of our Download
page. Note that the "fusion2010_setup.exe" file is digitally
signed by Dexadine, Inc.

CRC Tool™
This tool uses our proprietary Triple Interlaced
CRC algorithm that combines three standard ISO-32 CRCs in
such a way that every byte of a file is part of two CRCs and
every two consecutive bytes are part of all three CRCs.
The odds that a single file could be changed,
yet pass a Triple Interlaced CRC test is just 1 in 4.6 million
trillion (4,600,000,000,000,000,000), yet the speed penalty
is typically just 15 percent slower than that of a standard
CRC.
Dexadine's CRC Tool works on Microsoft Windows®
2000, XP, Vista or Windows® 7. The FAT, FAT-32 and
NTFS file systems are all supported. The maximum size of individual
files is 4 GB.
Dexadine's CRC Tool is a single applicaiton
file that needs no install or deinstall. Simply copy the application
file to a directory and double click the file name to launch
it. The tool can even be run from a CD-ROM. Help information
is contained within the program file. Dexadine's CRC Tool
may be freely distributed.

Photo
Presenter™
Have you seen what's happened to digital cameras
in the last two years? They've gotten smaller, better, and
cheaper. Whether on a hunting or fishing trip or a vacation
with the family, a digital camera can capture your good times
and let you share them with friends and family. And unlike
conventional photos, digital photos won't fade or darken over
time and you can e-mail them to friends across the country.
Of course, you can always print them, but the colors just
never seem to be as brilliant as when viewed on a monitor.
Photo Presenter makes it easy for anyone to
view digital photos on a PC with a minimum of program controls
cluttering up the display. Photo Presenter also makes it easy
for anyone to add captions to their photos, something that
greatly adds to their viewing enjoyment both now and especially
into the future.
Photo Presenter may be freely distributed.
For those with CD-ROM burners, free distribution lets you
add Photo Presenter to your CD's of photos you make to share
with friends and family. The program's help pages will show
you how to have Photo Presenter automatically display the
first photo or bit map when the CD is inserted in the drive.
From there, all the photos in the folder can be viewed with
just the Next and Back buttons. Your friends and family can
view your photos simply by inserting your CD into their system.
