tungsten Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Iphone users, I downloaded an iphone application called Ballistic (£5.99) [they also do a lite and tactical]. I think it's really good giving fall/gain of shot tables/graphs for a huge number of production ammo for variables you enter. Also includes zeroing targets and range targets for recording shots has a built in weather/humidity/alltidue conditons via GPS and range logs + much more. Can be checked out at:- http://ballistic.zdziarski.com Just got another update which come regulary and I see they have included 17 fireball ammo to the data base alnog with loads of other new ones.

Hi Tungsten, I've used this for a while, it's great & I have various .223, .243 & 7mm-08 loads saved in there, the click adjustments recently were updated to include 1cm/100m (handy for my Swarovski scopes). The LOS angle calculator is a great feature....do all the inputs, then double tap LOS, then click outside the box and hold the phone in your palm (screen facing the sky) and line up with the target....after a 2 or 3 seconds it calculates the angle of fire (Line of Sight) and incorporates that into the range chart. Top stuff :blink: Cheers AndyCM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tungsten Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) The LOS angle calculator is a great feature.... this one part of the app i can't work out?:blink:? iv'e tried everything.

Billy. Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 I've used it for ages. If there's a caliber that you want or type of ammo, do a little research and send him the data and he'll put it in the next update. Jonathan is his name, I think. I sent him loads of .22lr and .17 data and he added that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 The US have started using another iPhone/iPod Touch app (BulletFlight) for their troops in the dustbowl. It seems to be about as good, but I would go for Ballistic because of the HUD option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
