    ok all you people not using applied ballistics because you won't fork out the $40 you are missing out on his custom drag curves.
    so far I have down loaded three.
    the 147 eldm 143 eldx and the 285 amax and will be doing another couple soon.
    fuck all rest just buy the best
    I only recommend this app it as I can help people when they have issues with things not working and they also have the litz CDC which work spot on out to 1200 with the 6 5.
    go figure .
    buy once cry once.
    if any body needs help I can probably sort it.
    cheers Andy

    unbiased data from an independent expert is always good to have.

    Other facts:
    Litz thinks highly of the LabRadar and sells them.
    Litz has just had a tussle with Hornady over their Hornady 4 DOF Ballistics Calculator.
    Hornady are putting great stead on their BCs verified by their radar.
    I have never believed a lot of manufacturers' high BCs (including Hornady's) and have relied on Litz to come along with real life proven data - I guess what the OP was after here.
    When will Litz do the goods on ELDs - that's a good question given his paper he wrote attacking their calculator. If he is a nasty guy he would seek to disprove the claimed BC figures. He may have already done the analysis and has not published. Something that could happen if the BCs prove to be correct. I also don't think he is a nasty type.
    I love Litzs data but he is a bit of a problem when he keeps changing his BCs on the Berger bullets, usually down....don't forget he works for Berger & they won't be loving Hornady at the moment.

    Changing the Data makes his $100 books obsolete.....

    A client was talking to him at the Shot Show this year, he clammed right up when he figured out my client knew way too much about shooting the 375 a long long way...

    Client come away a little disappointed to be fair...
