I have been out of the hunting game for awhile due to a life changing situation (Divorce, Employment loss, moved to a new state, found new career), and so haven't been hunting in wide open spaces for about 7 years. At one point in time, I had the app "Shooter" on my Android phone, and used it well enough while hunting out West.

Question is, what Ballistic App's for carryng on a phone are available these days, and what are your reccommendations?

Thanks!

Frog

Shooter is still available. I run the applied ballistics app on my phone now.

Geoballistic is another to check out. The mapping/ranging feature could be useful.

I use Ballistic AE. Works well.

It really is hard to beat the Hornady 4 dof app if you're running their bullets.

I run Hornady 4DOF with Hornady and Berger bullets. I also use the 4DOF Kestrel. Results for bullets from both manufacturers typically require some tweaking with the Axial Form Factor function.

Another vote for Strelok Pro. Having the reticles built in is awesome.

I’ve some time with most of the ballistic phone apps, and Ballistic:AE remains my favourite, but Shooter is still one of the best.

Which app is the easiest to use for putting in a zero and then correcting to 5-600 yards?

Ballistic AE for me.

It's retired all (3) of my chrnographs,for at least the last dozen or better new rifles. Hint.

Once DOPE is confirmed ala AE,it goes to ocular caps and stocks,for future reference. On a new spout,I can typically go from a zero of interest to me and correlate same to the Transonic Slip,in less than (5) rounds. Hint.................

Have used Shooter for 12+ years and know it intimately. Love it! With that said, received my new Kestrel 5700 Elite the other day and am on the fast track to getting it up and running as well as pairing it, via bluetooth, to my new pair of Leica Geovid 3200.com's which will then give me range, dope in MOA or MIL as well as low and high wind calls/adjustments.
