Description
Shooter is an external ballistics calculator designed to bring you highly accurate solutions quickly. Shooter accomplishes this by saving your firearm and ammo data and makes it easily selectable upon loading the app as well as providing features like Kestrel and WeatherFlow integration to import your atmospherics via Bluetooth. Shooter has successfully aided hunters, marksmen and sniper teams for years.
Some key features:
* An extremely accurate, fast and proven ballistics solver created by Berger Bullet's chief ballistician and champion shooter Bryan Litz
* Save firearm and ammo data as profiles so you don't have to continually entering the same constant data over and over each time you want a calculation
* You probably have several firearms and loads. It's tedious entering all this data on a handheld device. With Shooter, you can login to a web interface using your PC at http://manage.shooterapp.net and enter/manage all your firearm/ammo data then simply sync it to your device.
* Finger-controlled graphical wind dial for easy wind angle input
* Online profile backup included at no extra charge
* Built-in large bullet library to make it simpler to add your ammo profiles. Shooter now supports syncing bullet data from the cloud in order to provide quicker updates for newly released bullets
* Supports Coriolis Effect and Spin Drift calculations; Can get your Latitude and Azimuth for Coriolis Effect using GPS and compass.
* Automatic-atmosphere input using your GPS location and nearest weather station
* Zero-atmosphere support. This will auto-account for changes to your zero when shooting in a different atmosphere
* Solution screen which allows for extremely quick and easy changing of shot distance, wind or lead speed
* Load atmospherics from Kestrel 5000-series, Kestrel DROP 1/2/3 or WeatherFlow WeatherMeter
* Graph bullet path, drift and velocity with ability to compare up to 6 loads at once
* Velocity Calibration tool which helps you determine your muzzle velocity.
* Email trajectory table output
* Full metric support

Ratings and Reviews
Worth the money
Managed to get hits on a 10" gong at 1200 in 5 rounds with this app. First time shooting long range and using a $200 vortex crossfire, so I'm sure the app calculations were much more accurate than my scope turrets, but I was only off by a few moa and able to adjust from there.
Very happy with the purchase.
Virtually no support
Basic functions work fine but if there is a question or any issue not covered in the years-old instructions you are SOL. I bought the app in iTunes Store and used it for over a year on my iPhone and when I got a new iPhone it is trying to charge me again to install. No answers from developer. Think I will look elsewhere rather than pay another ten bucks.
Update. Got the app to re-download without charge. Still no new updated version, no updated bullet library. For example, Hornady has come out with a number of new 6.5 Creedmoor loads and bullets, like ELDM and ELDX cartridges that are very widely used and popular ammo. They are nowhere to be found in the library. Again the app has basic functionality, but it’s a shame the developer doesn’t put in a minimal amount of effort to update it for users to make it more functional and convenient.
Lacking features
Pros: Profile syncing, Good operation manual online
Cons: Rarely updated, clunky UI, old bullet library, lacks features
The app is really showing its age, particularly when compared to competitors like StrelokPro. (Current version is nearly 5 years old, whereas StrelokPro updates almost weekly.) My two biggest complaints are that I have to select the gun and ammo EVERY TIME I open the app instead of just picking up where I last left off and that the bullet library is generic and missing modern bullet offerings.
