Best Ballistic Calculator Android App?

[Lone Hunter]

I have been using the Hornady ballistics app on the phone.

It is easy to us BUT it is not accurate. You enter the info on your gun and bullet, but it never is accurate.

I shoot 350 to 1000 yds and I only use it for a general elevation starting point.

I wish I knew what I could change in the setup to match the actual results on my gun and loads.

Get Shooter or Strelok Pro. LOL. JBM is a great app too. I have found it to be very accurate also plus it’s free. Shooter I like really well. I tried the Hornady but didn’t like it.

Anyone know someone at Bison Ballistics? Or "friend of a friend"? Any way to email a real person and ask if their site will eventually be back up and some idea when? I miss playing with the recoil estimator.

Hello All
Another vote for Strelo
My only problem weather data transfer.
From you using StreLok pro. Will it connect to the Kestrel 5700 elite with link, to get weather data.. If so, how.

Thanks.

Just tried Bison Ballistics
Error. BAD gateway
Have just downloaded several Ballistics apps.
Hornady 4DOF, and Geo Ballistics .
Also Have A B Quantum. Free version.

My own 2 cents. STRELOK pro. For those with Android & Samsung ,it's still available.

Haven't seen anyone mention it, so I'll say Geoballistics. I've used AB and it was nice until they went to a subscription model. GB is easier/intuitive to use and gives me the same ballistic solution as AB (within 0.1 MRAD).

I shoot PRS matches and the ability to input all my targets quick and easy is one of the most important features besides the solution. GB does it the best of any app I've used. It connects to your Kestrel and other wind/weather meters, but can also grab that information from local weather stations. It's now owned by Vortex, and given their latest upgrades (some great features) I suspect they will only continue to make it better.

After thought
Now with penny out of circulation. Old saying " my 2 cents worth" now costs a nickle.

I want to get to Bison Ballistics for the page that calculates recoil. Hope they get it fixed soon.

For simple Shooter all the way. Turn spin drift and coriolis off. They aren’t needed for most field work.

For shorter ranges drift & corolis may not be of much concern. Don't intend to hi Jack the thread, but here is simple description of how corolis has an effect../ affect.

By field work I mean as in hunting. Most people cannot shoot the difference between those two on or off in typical field situations.

I use Bison Ballistics.....free and provides everything I need for PDn.

This. Great selection of bullets and consistently accurate. I’ve used it to get first round hits on steel out to 1K

Geo Balistics is my go to.
