Thread: Garmin EPIX GPS Watch Review

This seems to be the only ballistic calculator currently available on the GarminIQ store.
You need to contact the developer and get a bank account to pay money (20USD I think) into, then give him your watch ID and he sends you a licence key, so I expect its locked to your device. Its a bit like the Applied Ballistics security.
Without paying money you can get some limited functionality by changing one of the three common default cartridges.
When you do pay the money, it's fully featured, allowing G1, G7, mix of metric and imperial units, setup scope height, slope, wind, coriolis if you want it, readout in Mils, MOA, clicks, inches or cm. Enough said.
Predictions were within 0.3 mRad of the banned standard app out to 600m for the 7mm08 and to 200m for the 22LR. Evidently, the AB works have been reverse engineered, as several apps are all giving interchangeable results now and its just the interface and libraries that makes some better to use.

TruFlite icon among apps / activities on the screen:



7mm08 zeroed at 100m, giving come up at 200m with wind hold for 5 m/s full value:



22LR zeroed for 25yd (22.3m) and shooting at 50m:



Results from kneeling with 2-4m/s wind from 90deg but not held off for:



Here is the elevation for the 22, out to 100m.
This facility to display trajectory at any interval (I used 10m steps here) and make up an on the spot range card should be particularly handy for 22 shooting at a variety of distances without needing to reprogram.


It would be nice if you could turn it by 90 degrees to make it easier to use the watch on your wrist while shooting.

But its still very useable.

I think this is easier to use than an app on your phone and perhaps a bit more adaptable to the conditions on site than a range card stuck onto your stock (which you should have as well for reference).
