Does anyone know of a website offering a ballistic calculator? I need a calculator that computes the adjustments for various up/down angles at various ranges.

I am selling a a PC based version that is an Excell Worksheet that performs all ballistics calculations. Also included is a .ppt file with targets that can be printed out.
$5, both files included. Check out the Free Classifieds here on 24hour.

Of the several calculators out there, which is most accurate as I get different results from all the ones I've tried.

The simplest way is to use a mathmatical formua in which you multiply the range by cosine of angle. obviously the degree of accuracy depends on accuracyof range & angle estimation.
The table of cosines is found in the Marine Corps Scout/Sniper manual or in many of the GOOD technical Sniper (boy ,there's a word that gets abused a lot by the media & those that do not know what one really is) publications on the market. Those by Mike Lau & Dave Lauck are among the better ones. Was going to attach a jpeg that has the table but it is too large to atttach here..
