BulletFlight :

iSnipe:

I have these 2 and they worth every penny. The BulletFlight (Military version) is being paired with the M110 SWS and iSnipe have a cool range finder (very limited range) built in. You can take a picture with the iPhone then mark the target, input target's height and voila, you have the range. It just a rough estimate but cool nonetheless.

what about for android
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I have and use ballistic FTE. I think it's a great program and pretty simple to use.
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

Bulletflight or Ballistic FTE seem to be your most widely iPhone ballistic apps.

I myself have Knights Armament Bulletflight, and enjoy using it.
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I have all 3 of them, but like others, I generally use Ballistic FTE. I am not a fan of the Bulletflight user interface at all, it just feels like it needs a lot of work.
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I use Ballistic Field Tactical Edition (FTE). I have nothing but good experience with it and have had first round hits at 900yds using the program. What's not to like about that?
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

Will Ballistic FTE run on an iTouch?

I'm only passingly familiar with Apples capabilities. The wife has an iTouch and II think it will run the iPhone apps. I don't use AT&T but I'd like to get a good program that will run on a hand held of some kind w/o having to switch from my BB to a Driod.

+100000000 for Ballistic FTE - works great on my Iphone and I use a Kestrel with it to give it the best data I can
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I've got the Ballistic FTE app on my iTouch.....my shooting buddy ordered the Nightforce TDS Nomad hand held ballistic computer for about $1400. I paid $200 for my iTouch plus $20 for the FTE application.

We head out to get dope on his new rifle from 300 yards out to 1000 yards. He uses his & I use mine to get the come ups. At almost every single distance, our data was maybe 1 or 2 "clicks" off from each other.

I kept bragging about my $20 application and how he paid $1400 for his.....he took his & threw it about 20 yards into the field....walked over picked it up & smiled saying, "Gee look at that...it still works..."

Then he asked me, "Hand me your iTouch.....we'll test it too..."

"Hell NO!!.....I ain't stupid!"

The iTouch is perfect for simply being at the range.....the other device is what I would carry into battle with....
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I have both ISNIPE and Ballistic FTE and both work great. I would have to say I probably use ISNIPE more often which at first I never imagined due to its less than serious name (sounds like something created by Apple) and its price compared to the other softwares but it is every bit as accurate. At their price range get one or both and have at it. BTW mgd45, unless your taking your ITOUCH to Iraq I think your still doing a heck of alot better than your buddy with the ridiculously priced ballistic computer, get yourself a Pelican case and take the little lady on a vacation with the money you save (It will go a long way when you want permission for those hunting trips !!)
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

ballistic fte is much more comprehensive than bulletflight and more accurate too. I have made many long distance shots with this program on the first shot.
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

I was extremely happy with it last weekend. We did some more shooting from 500 - 900 yards, but this time I was using a new handload of 155 grain Scenar bullets. I had only chrono'd about 5 rounds and had never shot over 100 yards.

After putting in the data in Ballistic FTE, it was never more than 1 MOA off at each distance from my POA at the dead center of a small man target. Actually, it was dead on at 500, 600 and maybe 5 inches high at 700 & 800.....at 900 it was about 9 inches off!

To say I was impressed with the results would be an understatement!
 
Re: Best app for Iphone Ballistics cal ?

Have BulletFlight and Shooter...Hands down BulletFlight.
