Shooter (Ballistic Calculator)

Units do not update when you select. Old app with no updates in 6 years. Strelok Pro has been banned so please would you update your app.

What is it worth if units is selection criteria and dies not update.

The app itself and the calculations work as advertised. However….I recently purchased a Weatherflow Tempest handheld weather meter. This app list the meter as compatible as does the manufacturer of the meter. It doesn’t connect via Bluetooth to the app, as is advertised. It connects to similar ballistics apps so I know the meter works correctly, so it has to be the app Have sent emails to both the app developer and the meter manufacturer. Received a reply from Weatherflow. I have not received a reply from the app developer and the last update to the app is 7 years old. Hence 2 star review RESPOND TO CUSTOMER SERVICE REQUESTS!!!!

I have been using it for a year or two, very happy with it and it is pretty simple to use.

I’ve been long range shooting for only about a year & a half now, but in that time I’ve probably put in over 200hrs of classroom time and over 1k rounds of field time. Just learning to call wind, changing my mind about things, zeroing & trueing multiple different rifles… I’ve used about ten different ballistic calculators. I’ll say this: if you’re sticking to a max time of flight that’s about 1.3s then look no further. If you’re really going out there at 1500yds and beyond, the Hornady 4DOF app is actually really good at predicting hits well past 1k yards. But it’s way more labor intensive with the data inputs; you need to be doing that correctly. And it can be more frustrating than this app when shooting at 800yds or less. The reason I prefer the Shooter app for anything less than extreme ranges (which should catch about 99% of guys shooting rifles) is because it’s super accurate & super simple. You open it then type in the distance, temp & elevation, make a wind call, and bam you’re on target. It gives you the firing solution in a super clean format without adding more decimal places; just the numbers you need to dial. It doesn’t go crazy with coriolis or spin drift or aerodynamic jump…all of which occur, but in something like a Cd vs Mach (point mass solver) any error in inputs while setting up the rifle can lead to rather large errors in the firing solution. As with any app, make sure you have a true zero using ten shots. That’ll give you the true center of your cone of fire. 3-5 shots aren’t enough and will make you think you have a “wandering zero”. Then shoot out at distance, say 6-800yds, 10 shots again, looking at the height of the group versus your calculator. If you have a good average velocity measured by a chronograph, I’ve rarely seen the need to true by changing either MV or BC. But for shorter ranges (given the small amount of shots recorded over a chronograph, the inaccuracy of photocell chronos, etc) I prefer tweaking the MV by 10-20fps to true. After that, if you’re good at judging both wind speed & direction then you’ll find this app to be incredibly accurate for minimal effort on your part. Haven’t found any other calculator that’s as accurate or easy to true up a rifle with at non-extreme ranges.

Don’t waste your time when the ammo tab is non-selectable but absolutely required to calculate dialing. Worthless.

Do not purchase this app. It does not work in the least. The bullet library is far out of date. It does not pair with wind meter at all. Also it is not eligible for a refund.

Great app worth every cent, but any chance you could add under firearm data, Elevation turret grad , please add 3/4 as a option Again great app thanks

I paid for this app and it just constantly crashes. I immediately went to report the issue and request a refund and it’s not available apparently. Hopefully someone will read this and assist with that.

App hasn’t been updated in almost 4 years and doesn’t show options for lots of new bullets on the market although you can manually enter new bullet profiles.
