Searches were fruitless. Who else likes ballistic calculators on their phones? I've been using winchester's app but it's not the most precise (only covers their loads). I also downloaded the iStrelock one but can't figure out how to use it for the life of me. Let's hear what y'all use!
"What! what! men, dodging this way for single bullets! What will you do when they open fire along the whole line? I am ashamed of you. They couldn't hit an elephant at this dist-"
Last words of Union Gen. John Sedgwick, before he was killed by a Confederate sniper.

Nikon Spot-On, but it's for their scopes.
If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. (James Madison)

"Young man, what we meant in going for those Redcoats was this: we always had governed ourselves and we always meant to. They didn't mean we should."
(Captain Levi Preston, of the Danvers militia, at age 91, remembering the day)

That it is an indispensable duty which we owe to God, our country, ourselves and posterity, by all lawful ways and means in our power to maintain, defend and preserve those civil and religious rights and liberties, for which many of our fathers fought, bled and died, and to hand them down entire to future generations.  Suffolk Resolves, September 9, 1774, attributed to Dr. Joseph Warren

Shooter.  I've tried several, but this is my favorite.

I use iSnipe and love it. Strelok is also a great program. You might as well pick up Mil-dot master as well, it's free I think.

I have Ballistic on my ipad and love it (the app).  Countless pre-programmed loads, bullets and even Bryan Litz's data on ballistic coefficients for the best accuracy.  It honestly has more features than I have a hope of using at the moment.  It goes as far as letting you program in your load and zero at a given atmospheric condition, then telling you what sight adjustments to make for your current distance and atmosphere.  Ok, so that goes WAAAAAY past what a Rifleman needs in the field and really lands smack in the middle of long range precision shooting, but it was well worth the price to download.

I prefer "BulletFlight" by KAC...  however, I got it in it's beta (free updates) and when it was free.

Easy to understand interface, highly accurate no matter the altitude/humidty, etc...  Can even track your own custom loads.

Worth a look.

I haven't tried it yet, but almost all of the long range guys around here use Shooter.

During the whole affair, the rebels attacked us in a very scattered, irregular manner, but with perseverance and resolution, nor did they ever dare to form into a regular body. Indeed they knew too well what was proper, to do so. Whoever looks upon them as an irregular mob, will find himself very much mistaken. They have men amongst them who know very well what they are about..."Gen. Hugh, Earl Percy

Hi Guys,
What about for those of us that have Android phones?  What is a good program for that type?

Thanks in advance!
