Free Exterior Ballistic Software

Boolit Mold Join DateFeb 2013Posts11

Can someone please recommend a free exterior ballistic software application that is highly respected? I was shooting my Trapdoor today and came away from the range with a desire to play around with such. However, after a lengthy search on the I'net, I am frustrated with one I tried, and the few others I read about but don't want to BUY.

I also did a search on this site which did not answer this question.

I want to run this on Win7.

Thanks.

While not on a laptop or PC and definitely not Freeware, I use the Ballistic AE program on my iPhone right at the range. It's pretty accurate in its predictions and it is infinitely adjustable for range, velocity and wind. The author continually updates it and you can print out the graphs that it produces. It also has a heads up type display for those using it right on their rifle. As I recall, it cost me about $20 USD and I've used it enough over the last several years to consider it more than paid for. In relative terms, it's less than the cost of a box of factory centerfire bullets and will last infinitely longer!

Here's a link to its web site:

Here's a You Tube video on programming it:
