my Nikon wind meter doesn't give anywhere close to accurate readings.
LOVE NIKON
PIECE OF CRAP. APP CLOSES EVERY TIME WIND SPEED IS REQUESTED.
The App is free now
Just ordered one! I hope I like it. 99.00 was a bit spendy but if it is comfortable it is worth it.
Strelok Pro is fantastic! It even has my SWFA MOA-Quad Reticle. there are three different versions of the app that range from free to $12. Excellent bang for the buck. Pellet guns, rimfire and center fire.
From their page:
928 reticles database!
1184 bullets database + 400 bullets with G7 ballistic coefficients
2615 cartridges database
This smart ballistic calculator can use G1, G7 and… custom drag-functions! It can use Lapua radar data!
Can calculate trajectory without using ballistic coefficient!
Powder temperature considering.
Supports imperial and metric units.
Supports density altitude.
Can calculate spin drift, gyroscopic stability factor and vertical deflection of crosswind.
Can calculate Coriolis effect.
Supports Kestrel weather meters via bluetooth, including new 5×00 family (for Android 4.3 and newer)!
Support Kestrel DROP environmental data loggers (for Android 4.3 and newer)!
Supports Weatherflow WEATHERmeter (for Android 4.3 and newer)!
Supports WeatherFlow WINDmeter (has a problems with some devices. Weatherflow was informed about this issues).
Trajectory validation (truing) by speed or ballistic coefficient.
Can measure incline angle with phone camera
Can get current weather from internet
You can store you data to Dropbox or Google drive for back up and sync between devices
You can select target type from big list of targets
I wonder if this will catch on and all the other optics companies start doing it too
Give the applied ballistics app a run you will not regret it.
Well great, now I need that lol. Thanks for the info!
boy Nikon sure sent out a butt load of those scope kits. I'll pass great optic but I like Leopold a touch better
As soon as you change the magnification its no good!!
App now free. Love my Spot on
Weird… The app is free for me.
Here's the big question: does it work in airplane mode / with no data/cell signal? Or does it send the data to a server for calculation? In a SHTF or hunting scenario that turns this from a toy into a real tool.
