    What Ballistic Software ?

    My iPhone has 2 possible apps to process ballistic information. Knight's "Bulletflight" or "Ballistic" by Jonathan Zdziarski. Ballistic seems to be more popular but Bulletflight may be better known.

    Does anyone have experience with these? Which one would you choose and why?

    Thanx guys.

    I am interested in long range shooting as accurately as possible. Target shooting only.

    Ballistic seems to be very popular! I have both and I use ballistic more than bulletflight simply because I can use the IPHY setting instead of MOA as my scopes adjust "Inches Per Hundred Yards".

    On the other side Bulletflight is probably every bit as accurate as Ballistic!

    For the price, get both and you decide!

    Thanx Sniper1. I am going to try Ballistic first as it seems much more popular and is more likely to have my bullet and weapon builtin. (Black Hills 68gr .223 and S&W M&P-15)

    I use the 5.11 Tactical Field Ops Watch....It has a Sure Shot Ballistics Calculator built into the watch. From rough guesses shooting 2" groups at 800 yards with just estimating wind-speeds, and muzzle volatility....watch also has a pretty good built in digital compass.

    Not my intention to thread jack, but I've seen the 5.11 watch in the NRA catalog and have tried to find photos of how the watch display works when displaying calculator data.
    What information do you have to enter into the watch, and how does it display the results?

    Thanks

    Check out isnipe app.
    I've been using it to fine tune my accuracy with my
    Savage arms 10BAT-S/K, and so far I have cut my groupings in half
    Never get out of the boat. Absolutely goddamn right. Unless you were goin' all the way.

    Why not give this a shot it is easy and doesn't require you to buy and expensive phone in order to make it work. Plus it doesnt require batteries.
