I have this program which I bought and I was wondering does it account for Spindrift? does anybody know?

Yes it does. Just look in the settings.

In addition, it allows the use of multiple BC's.

Thanks. I guess I have to play with it and familiarize myself with it more

Yes, it does. After you hit "calculate" then hit the icon that looks like a bulls eye with a piece of paper pinned to it, spin drift, Coriolis, and other info is in there.

I use 4 or 5 different ballistic apps and find they each have their own advantages. I really like the user interface of iSnipe best, but lately I've been using MD Ballistics (Mil Dot Ballistics). It has a nice visual display of your POI on a target of your choice, and you can select most common reticles (like the SWFA Mil/MOA Quad reticles). It does account for spin drift and coriolis, and can use multiple b.c. values like Sierra publishes for different velocity ranges. It's worth the $10 or so to try out.

I do have Strelok Pro as well, but feel like the user interface is pretty meh and lags behind most others.

I've always wondered how anyone could have enough time to enter all the inputs before taking a shot.

You don't.

The point is to use the ballistic app to help build your drop table before it's time to shoot. It's another tool to use, not the final solution.

I use shooter, the latest generation remembers your latest inputs. I make up a mock scenario before starting out that I think might be very close to actual. When I have a shot, I an either just open it or change the distance, temp or whatever needs tweaked.
