    There isn't a setting for aerodynamic jump.

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    I guess, I should of been more clear, I didn't realize you were pairing your Kestrel to the app. I thought you had a standalone unit like a 5700 that was generating the same pressure problem as the app. Since you mentioned, Dark Mode it very well could be an iOS issue. I haven't updated my...

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    I took the time to build two new profiles after changing all my data to metric, I set my max distance to 1300 meters and I couldn't generate any error messages. This leads me to believe that there isn't any bug that I can find if the profiles are built and used under one standard. Weird things...

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    You keep introducing new information to your ongoing problems. No where in your first post did you mention pairing your Kestrel to the app to gather atmospheric data. Did you shut the Kestrel off and enter the atmospheric data manually to the app? Eliminate one piece of equipment to alienate...

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    Is this the error message you're getting? There does appear to be something weird going on with hPa and distances past 1000. Every time I open a profile from favorites and enter current weather conditions and click on solution, I will get that error message and my hPa number will have a...

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    I am running the same version as you (6136) You say you are having the same pressure problem with your Kestrel, that would lead me to believe you have an input set incorrectly or we would see other users having the same problem. I didn't experience any weird numbers when I went to hPa, but...

    Ballistic Advanced Edition

    I just input the data that you mentioned, and my output is correct. It didn't matter if I divided it into two zones. What will effect the output is if you don't toggle the "constant" button on. If you have it on or off when you do one zone make sure you have it on or off both of the zones when...

    Ranging question

    Target size and distance are known, size of target in mils is unknown. So if you are not out in the field looking through your scope but sitting in your living room crunching numbers here's how to do it. 12(target size, inches) x 27.78(constant) = 333.36 / known distance = mils Ex 12 x 27.78 =...

    Sig Sauer BDX

    It looks like the BC is .398, based on very similar ammo (Magtech 308 Win 150gr fmj) If you look at bullets for reloading, the one that matches yours is also .398 that's the best I can do.

    Advanced Marksmanship Bullet path vs Bullet drop

    Do you have software that calculates for Gravity Distance, or are you using a specific Gravity Distance Angle calculator?

    Advanced Marksmanship Bullet path vs Bullet drop

    Diver160651, I am familiar with the cosine method, but at steep angles and greater distance it can be off, but lets face it, this problem is really nothing more than academic. An 800 yard shoot at a 60 degree angle in the wild is as rare as hens teeth, but it's fun to problem solve this stuff...

    Advanced Marksmanship Bullet path vs Bullet drop

    It might seem as I have it backwards, but I used the same terms that are used in the article, so that there would be no confusion, but I think we are saying the same thing?? Per the article, Bullet path is what he is dialing into his scope, example, at 900 yards his drop is 294.49 inches and...

    Advanced Marksmanship Bullet path vs Bullet drop

    I was looking for the most accurate method to determine come-ups on high angle shooting, when I came upon an article titled "Inclined Fire" by William T. McDonald. In it he mentions the "Sierra's Method" but to use this method you need Bullet path and Bullet drop. Bullet path is easy enough, it...

    Las Vegas area, looking for 1300yards +

    I know the area well, the area were the Score race guys stage is only good for about ~1150yards. Is there a longer range area I'm missing down there?

    Las Vegas area, looking for 1300yards +

    I have been trying to locate an area around the Vegas area that allows me to reach out beyond 1000-1200yards. I have spent a bunch of time on google earth trying to find an area that meets my criteria, with no luck. I know when people have their "secret" spot they hate to give up that info...

    Rifle Scopes New Athlon Cronus BTR - very weak/mushy turret detent

    Per everyone's suggestion I removed the o-ring, that improved the feel slightly, but it is still too easy to spin right past your intended dial point. Trying to compare what it feels like, my gen 1 PST feels more positive and a gen 1 PST is nothing to write home about. Maybe I have an earlier...

    Rifle Scopes New Athlon Cronus BTR - very weak/mushy turret detent

    I bought an Athlon Crouns btr from nycameraland (awesome guys) back in November. I checked it out when it came in and knew I would have to remove the thick grease from the turrets when I decided to mount it. Well, the time has come to mount it, I removed the grease, there was very little under...

    Rifle Scopes RPR w/sp3r handguard, scope clearance

    For those of you running 34mm tubes with 56mm bells and the Seekins handguard do you have clearance issues? I have about 5mm clearance with a 30mm/50mm scope with Defender caps on and a 1.5 inch mount. New Cronus will be here next week and I hate to think that it will just barley fit. Mil-rad...
