    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile now available for iPhone

    My tables still aren't right either. Wrote in here a couple weeks back on 7/27. My HUD readings work perfectly but the tables and reticle views are both still hosed up. I've found I can get by with the HUD and my environment reads in to that perfectly which does not seem to be the case for...

    By chance did you disable calibration at the bottom of the Ballistic Calibration screen?

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile now available for iPhone

    Applied Ballistics Mobile now available for iPhone Hey guys - just noticed an update has uploaded. Best news: I now have an almost perfect fit between my observed data from last day on a long range covering 9 different distances out to 1025 yards with SMK 175's on both G1 and G7...

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile now available for iPhone

    Ok. Took out the 200 and 550 yards actuals from the BC table and entered only my 1025 drop, hit run again and left it for about 30 seconds and it kept the 1025 drop data this time. Problem now is none of the shorter distance drops come close to my actual observed #'s. Maybe this is where the...

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile now available for iPhone

    Been following and learning from the Q&A here but I'm not quite sure I have the answer to an identical problem I have seen described above. Have rifle and ammo setup and learned the slightly less than intuitive tricks to editing and moving around. 1) Read a comment above about 175 SMK curves...

    Thanks Bryan. How can a prospective app buyer determine if his scope is already included ? More selfishly, Vortex Viper PST 6x24x50 in EBR 1 MRAD.

    Bad Time To Start Reloading ?

    Same experience this last couple years. Powder and primers are the hardest to get a consistent supply of so be ready to get good developing loads. Then go to the local shops regularly and be ready to buy when opportunity calls. The best shops will put you on a call list for a short list of...

    Why is a .308 bruising my shoulder???

    Exactly. When I left the bench and went prone the last thing I did was go up one notch on my Harris bipod. Should have been the first thing. Would have saved a lot of bruising. Another factor could be your cheek weld and eye relief. If you are getting a stiff neck from having to bend your neck...

    175 SMK better at 200 yards than 100?

    Interested in hearing more about this topic. About 8 months ago I was spending a lot of time playing with load development with 308 SMK's in 168 and 175 at a local 100 and 200 yard range through a 26" 1:10 twist. Four different powders were part of my testing. A couple hundred rounds down range...

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    Had a chance to verify today after loosening, adding thread lock and re-torquing to 18 inches. My biggest concern was that I had damaged something internally plus curiosity about where my 100 yard zero might end up since I had shimmed to it. Started with my best 168gr SMK load with N140...

    Does COAL matter if the round chambers in my rifle smoothly?

    I have a Savage 12 VLP in 308 with a stock 26" 1:10 barrel. When I started hand loading a few months back I discovered that Sierra's website had load recipes in PDF using the same action and barrel with a 2.800" COAL on 2.000-005" cartridge for their SMK 168 and 175gr BTHP's. So that's where I...

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    Viper PST. Mine is a 6-24x50ffp mil mil. Holds zero but the adjustments I have to make do not make any sense ballistics wise. I had heard the ring torque warning from another shooter and read about it here and other places. Makes perfect sense. Will not get a chance to verify at a range until...

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!! Interesting and I will try your advice. Thanks. My ring manufacturer specifies no loctite. They do use longer screws. 22 inch pounds no loctite did not hold so I guess I'm going to blow them off and try your advice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rifle Scopes Voertex Optics Never Ever Again!!!

    Three questions and a little story. 1) Did we ever get an answer on the torque used on the rings? I ask as I have a Vortex Viper PST 6x24x50 FFP Mil/Mil mounted with a set of DMZ rings/base and this question has been the key to some vexing problems finally alleviated. Following DMZ instructions...
