Been using this app for a while myself. There's another very good one called I strelok and one called I snipe. The best of the 3 for me is istrelok as it has a far bigger selection of bullets and a pile of reticles to choose from.

I love my Blackberry, but I also really miss Strelok
I hope eventually he does it for Blackberry.

I find this app to be the best out of all of them its not cheap but you get what you pay for.

The Swarovski ballistic app is specifically for setting up the ballistic turret rather than giving detailed ballistic information. When Fieldsports TV came to spend a day with me last year it had just been launched and I showed how to set it all up on film (Edition no 107).

HME,

The app details all the Swaro scopes and reticles, not just the BT.

They do it for Android now too. Luckily my home load seems to match the the factory load trajectory wise, they need to add a option to input your own values though. But it ok for nowt.

I know, I was trying to point out the fact that it was Swarovski scope / reticle specific rather than a general ballistic app like FTE.

Farmer - if you can find a similar factory load listed you can input your own parameters. I have spoken to the guys in Austria about this and they are looking at it. There were some glitches in the early edition released last year but they have now been ironed out.

Gday HME,
When I use it on my PC I can input my handload details, but on the app I downloaded to the Iphone it seems I have to select a factory load. Am I doing it right?

If so it' s a shame you can't input your own data on the Iphone version.

You will need to pick a factory load that gives you a correct bullet weight, but you can then adapt that bulet to your own velocities and BC. Not ideal, but as HME says, they are looking at it and it's a pretty good tool already.

Thanks mate I found a 162gn SST 7mm Rem Mag Hornady factory load which pretty closely replicates my 162gn SST 7mmWSM handload. I still couldnt see where to alter vel/BC data though?

I have just installed this today on my iPhone, has anyone had 100% trust in in using factory loads? Or do you still check? I'm using a Ballistic Turret.

Zero 150, then set up for 250, 350 and 450 on a .270

i can put homeloads into my version on my iphone, just pick the handload button on the bullet and loading screen, and you can store tehm on favourites screen. version 2.30.
