Folks,

which is the best ballistics program for a new IPAD ? From my search on here the one form Knight Armament "Bullet Flight" seems to get a good wrap. Any other I should consider or is better ? Looking for an IPAD compatible app.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I prefer Shooter.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Ballistic AE and Shooter are both great.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have knights and shooter, both are are good and easy to use, shooter has a lot more things to use though and is cheaper..,both always give me the same dope though
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

The shooter one sounds good, is there a code etc. so you can find it easy on I-Tunes ?
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

If you can afford a new ipad, you can afford both programs :)!

Actually Its work supplied................means more work for me !! but I figure I may as well have some "private useage" from it as well !!
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I just went through this process and I started with shooter. Big Lots has Android hand helds for $59 and $79 for a 7" tablet. Both run shooter with out any problems. I wanted something just dedicated to my range bag and ready to go.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Just to add I currrntly use exbal (Nightforce) and find it has been good. Would be happy if the program on the IPAD was similar to this.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Exbal is kind of an old interface but they are all pretty much the same.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have Shooter on my droid. But nothing I have found has compared to Field Firing Solutions on a pda. Shooter has given good dope up to 1000yd, but beyond that it isn't accurate. I tested both head to head out to 1900yd, & Shooter was off by over 2 moa out there.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Thanks folks purchased shooter.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have shooter, ballistic AE and bullet flight(got it when it first came out for cheap).

All have been great but I mostly use shooter. Very easy to use. Have it in both apple and droid products.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Couldn't reccomend Ballistic AE more strongly. Excellent customer service replies to both emails, or PM AshesToAshes.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

AE put me on target first time I shot 1000 yards. Shooter is great as well. But I prefer AE. IMHO the windage readings are a little out of whack so I just use it for vertical dope and my brain (or lack thereof) for reading wind
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have both ballistic AE and Shooter, and would pick Shooter because it has been more accurate for me. In addition you can adjust for powder temperature variations and true your velocity from actually DOPE.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Ballistic AE has it all. And MV truing is made in more elegant way than Shooter.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

one that I have not seen mentioned was "bullet flight" I have it on an itouch and it works very well

Where did you find it?
I received an iPad for Christmas and I can't find Shooter in the iPad apps.
I have it on my Droid phone.
Link if you've got one, please.
Thanks.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

i have ballistic AE and shooter, perfer shooter.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have been using Ballistic AE for a few years now on my Iphone, I found it worked great on my iPad as well, but bought the iPad version Ballistic mainly to support continued development. It has a few features that Ballistic AE does not mostly dealing with display and formatting that take advantage of the iPads increased screen size. I also have Shooter, but rarely use it. It's a nice app but Ballistic is a more polished app with more features.

I had shooter for my ipod before I purchased the ipad. The same app has worked for both and automatically synced from itunes.

Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I like Strelok, cause of the nightforce
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

Shooter has been dead on for all my rifles. If you give it the right info, it gives you the right solution.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

only 2 i would use... shooter or ballistic AE
both just as accurate, AE has more "toys" in it...


Bullet Flight is LAST on my list... can be just as accurate. but features BLOW for the $$$
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I used Ballistic AE for the longest time but now I use shooter. They start to clutter the crap out of the apps that have been around for a while.

Ever since the update where AE changed the mils from ex. (1.1 mils to 11 clicks, or 2 mils to 20 clicks). I couldnt use it anymore. I tried emailing the guy but he didnt understand what I was saying. He said, just change it to 1/10.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I have Strelok, Ballistic AE, and Shooter. I find Shooter to be the easiest for me to use.
 
Re: Which Ballistics program for New IPAD is the Best

I use ballistic AE and BulletFlight Advanced, im really liking the Bulletflight one
