Thread: strelok ballistic app

Not having any idea about this stuff i was looking at getting this app. Am about to chrono my rifle in the next couple of days so i can work out drops etc. I also have a boone & crockett scope which i believe strelok covers. Are i on the right track or is there some think out there easy for a dumb arse

Yea strelok is good and yes it lists the B&C reticle

Good App, used it, got it ( the free version ) . I have had good success with it.

I have the IOS version.
Good for the price, probably the only feature missing is being able to enter in actual drop/windage tested in the real world.

There is only one app that I recommend if your serious and that is Applied Ballistics.
Buy once cry once

At the moment all i have use is the hornady ballistic calculator. Need to comfirm

The free version of strelok is good. Make sure you measure and alter the preset scope height variable from 1.5" to an actual measurement. The difference makes a big difference in my experience.

@septic How do you measure the actual measurement ? , iv got the shooter app on my 308 its great on the 7 Rm its 6 or 7 inches high at 500 yards to compensate I put the FPS at 3700 ... haven't tested that theory yet !

yep love strelok ap - on iphone and i pad depending if in the field or at the range.

super easy to run and correct for distance for your drop charts. My fave!

+1 Strelok.
You don't have to buy it ( the free version) so there is no crying involved at all.

pull the bolt out to a distance equal to the end of the scope and then use a rule to measure roughly centre of bolt to centre of scope

2 and 3 round hits at 704m (saw the first 3"in low, and dialled some more) with a 6.5x55 Swede, using strelok free version. Something like 94 clicks.

Then same day, 400m 223 hits off the suggested hold however from it.

Rate it. (Some limitations though)

However, have done the height adjustment, and have to be real careful on adjusting all the settings - same for any program.

Try it and see - will cost you a few rounds to prove it or not.

Stelock is very good. Great range of factory ammo, and scope/reticle combos.

Just paid for the strelok pro it's the goods.

Agree. It doesn’t have the vx5 3-15 reticle but I’m using vx6 3-18. You can change the max magnification in settings. Seems to work although I’m dialling so don’t really use it.
