Mil-Dot Ballistics combines fast range estimation with a full featured ballistics calculator that’s simple to use. Real-time calculations provide instant range estimation and ballistics calculation to get you on target fast.
The simple interface allows for one handed operation and eliminates any need to manually type any measurements to range a target.
Complete, detailed user manual for iPhone and iPad available at www.rangetimesoftware.com.

I’ve had this program since around 2013. This is one of two apps I’ve ever paid for. As apps go $15 is a lot but it’s worth it. Ballistics are not simple but this app does make it easier to visualize. I tend to go month’s without shooting and this app helps me pick up where I left off. I gave it 4 stars because I miss a few things from older versions of the app. It used to have optimum PBZ and I really miss that feature (the screenshots on the website still show it under “solution info”). You can still play around with your zero range and look at PBR to figure it out. I also miss the ability to tap your elevation or windage values to toggle between primary and secondary units. The new method works but it’s a little slower for how I use it. Once I make the decision whether to adjust my scope or hold over I preferred the ability to quickly toggle between clicks and inches. Also if you select the feet/inches for Target UOM it displays 0 for target sizes smaller than 1’. A workaround is to switch Target UOM to inches. Despite these critiques it’s still an awesome app.
Finally... long over due!

Thanks for the latest update. This has been my fav ballistic ap but could not use it for a long time. 4 stars till I get some range time to test it.
Incredible App

I've been using the app for over 2 years now. I was able to use the MOA function in the program to make a 974 yard shot with a Steyr 308. The longest shot to date that I had taken was 517 yards (1-3/4" group). The calculations were spot on and allowed me to hit my target. I have the app installed on my iPad and iPhone. It would be nice to have the data stored in the cloud so that all of my devices can share the custom load information with a single input.
Great data for Long Range shooting

I used this app on my I-phone to start and found it vary useful giving me all the data I needed. But when I put it on my I-pad wow, the screen changed and have a full menu on the left side now which makes it much easier to use. I haven't found a better app yet. There are plenty of app's that are real good but this app shines. Plus I would also recommend. Mil-Dot Rangefinder to go with.
Bug Fixes:
-Corrected menu color issues.
-Corrected issue with connecting to weather stations.
Updates:
-New reticle picker interface
-New ballistics library interface
-Added new reticles for Vortex Scopes (Venom and Diamondback Tactical)
