[QUOTE="doctorjj, post: 989597, member: 7292"] I have it on my iPhone but I haven't used it in the field yet. I've played around with it a lot. I bought the middle level version. I can tell you the actual use of it, the interface, and the info it gives you is amazing. I don't know why the calculations wouldn't be spot on. Once I get to try it on the range I'll have some better feedback, but again, the calculations would be the least of my concerns with any given app. It's the functionality and ease of use that varies from program to program. On the version I have, you can add specific ammo (specific weight, fps, ballistic coefficient) and it will save it and call it whatever you want, i.e. 7mm mag 150gr ballistic tip. It can use the built in accelerometer to get the angle of the shot. It can also use the GPS in the phone to automatically gather local weather data as well as your altitude. It's very thorough. The highest version adds in the actual BC based on bullet drop as well as bullet spin drift and the Coriolis effect. That's a little over the top for me. I'm pretty sure you'd have to be Carlos Hathcock with an Intervention M-200 rifle to need all of that. [/QUOTE]
