If you go to google and type in any sort of conversion, it will work as a convertor for you. It does currency based on current information, I use inches to mm a lot or vice-versa, grains to grams, grains to lbs (if you order a box of 1k 230gr bullets, it weighs a lot for shipping ). Ounces to lbs, teaspoons to tablespoons, etc.

Give it a try, it works pretty well.
