    StrelokPro also gives you the reticle hold-overs for most popular scopes which is very helpful for competitions.

    A good free app is the Hornady 4DOF one.

    That is odd but I did hear on here a recent update mucked with the app and I didn't update mine till later. You can turn off spin drift in the settings. I dont normally shoot far enough to worry about it, but know I never need more than a MOA out to 1000.
    I would have thought you would pick up such a large discrepancy noting wind strength and direction earlier, but yeah that would be a pain in the ass.
    I'm not saying it is the best app by any means but it is the one I have had the best results with particularly because it was simple to understand get started.
    Recently had a mate the same age as me who has hunted all his life but has never fired a shot over 200m ever, hit at least waterline on targets with every shot with my rifle at several ranges well over 500. He was astounded. He asked how I calculated such precision so well in my head coz he knew I was a dumb fuck at school
