About BulletFlight
Note: This is the highest level of BulletFlight (level M, Military). Also see BulletFlt L1 and BulletFlt L2 for lower-cost alternatives.
Knight's Armament BulletFlight is a military-grade ballistic computer that provides quick solutions in the field. BulletFlight does not output information in table format but rather dynamically gives you the solution you need now to make that shot. Current weather conditions including temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, and wind direction can be input, as well as angles to the target as measured by the built-in accelerometer. The app then provides highly detailed solutions out to 3000 meters. Your weapon profile includes your scope MOA/mRad per click, and hence when you provide a range to the target, the app will simply show how many clicks you need to change the scope by for that range and wind speed.
Includes over 1400 projectiles including carefully-measured G7 BC database for VLD bullets. BulletFlight's G7 data is courtesy of Bryan Litz and I recommend his book: http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/index_files/Book.htm
Up to five ballistic coefficients with corresponding velocity thresholds may be used for each profile to enhance accuracy, or use a single G1, G7, or G8 value.
Several built-in profiles for the Army's M110 and M110C semi-automatic precision rifle, the Army's new XM2010 sniper rifle, the 14.5 inch SR16 rifle, The 50 BMG M107, .308 M40A3, .308 M24, and the 6.5mm KAC PDW allow you to get started quickly. You may alter these profiles, or add new ones.
This app is currently in combat use by military snipers in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Features:
Android-specific interface.
Built-in profiles for common military rifles, but easily add more custom profiles.
Accurate bullet database with most major brands.
3000 meters range (2000 using simple screen).
Fast and accurate ballistic computation using G1, G7, or G8 ballistic coefficients.
Easy to use interface yet powerful and full featured. All relevant data on screen all at once.
User interface designed to minimize chance of input errors.
"Simple Screen" with distance wheel, but also "Full" screen where any exact range may be used.
Output in inches, cm, MOA, Mils, and scope clicks.
Option for Metric units. In most cases imperial and metric are visible at the same time.
Direct input for scopes with either MOA or mRad metric input (such as Schmidt & Bender).
Calculates 360 degree wind drift using either degree of O'Clock format input.
Wind speed may be specified in either miles-per-hour or meters-per-second.
Advanced atmospheric model.
Uses GPS to locate nearest weather station and then automatically gets weather data and altitude (for most locations assuming compatible weather station) for ballistic computation.
Sight-in weather may be logged and stored for automatic normalization to standard conditions. So you may sight in at any temperature or altitude and later be accurate at any other temperature or altitude.
Built-in accelerometer will detect angle for improved accuracy.
Computes actual BCs from collected data. Some users will do this for each log of ammo before a mission.
Built-in mil-dot range calculator.
Calculates bullet twist / stability with a highly-accurate formula.
Computes bullet spin drift.
Built-in help screen.

I am totally disappointed that I spent $30 on this app! Strelok does WAY more than this app does! The GUI leaves a lot to be desired, and the local weather features do not update correctly in the app so it can provide corrections. Uninstalled, and requesting my money back......

Very great app for serious shooters. I had an iPhone before this DROID and the difference between the apps is huge. This app let's you truly build a custom gun with twist rate and bullet length. Among other features. Well worth the money

This app only covers weaponry used by the United States military. For a $30 app I would expect to see some hunting rifles. No Cheytac or AI. There are no Ak/Mosin/Dragunov, no Mauser, HK. This app is not worth the price with so few model options.

I have a galaxy s5. I could not access any of the Edit features in this app with my s5. Or anything else for that matter... Except for a few preset weapon profiles. It wants me to press the hard key to access the Edit menu, but my phone has no hard key. I may have figured it out. You need to press and HOLD the lower left of the screen where you can see everything that is running in the background. Then more options pop up. I'll up my rating if this gets me everything I know this app has.

I would give it 5 stars but it doesn't get the local weather with my Droid Maxx. I sent an email and they answered it within 10 minutes. Turns out some of the weather servers changed their name. The fix will be in the next version. Can't wait to add that 5th star.

I've had this for Android for about 2 years. Just installed on a new HTC one and I like it even better than on the HTC Evo I had before. So far it has exceeded expectations. I do have a suggestion: Have the "get angle" feature bring up a camera window so you can put crosshairs on the target. I find the get angle feature hard to use as I am never sure if the phone is pointed as the target exactly. I suppose if the phone was mounted on the rifle this would be a non-issue but I won't be doing that. Also a way to easily import and export data would be helpful when multiple devices are in play and for backing up that hard earned dope. Thanks for a product that does what it says it does.

Read all the reviews, looked over the website and took the plunge. Initially, it worked fine on the Nexus 7 tablet but like all good things it had to end. Stopped working, would not reset and had to be uninstalled (lost all that data!) and then reinstalled. When I called the developer they were all out. No problem there I understand. Why support a $30 app. For those of you considering dropping the $30 and buying this app - I would pause a bit - the bugs aren't all worked out. It's a bit frustrating to lose several hours of data because of some software bug. Give this program some thought before you decide - personally I should have waited.

This program is almost as good as the Horus Vision ATRAG. It's been spot on as long as I place in the correct data. Also it automatically puts in the BC's for the given projectiles taking out the guess work. I think its been worth every penny! J.K

Just completed several "Tactical rifle" courses with varying levels of experienced personnel. This is the ONLY app that uses the G7 BC data accurately. I danced with Strelok creator for a while, but don't waste your money if it is a matter of life or death to you or someone else. The you're of accurate calculations you get from this program equal that of the USMC ballistics calculators. Great work!

Bulletflight works well with all of my calibers and goes far above and beyond other software I have utilized. I like that I can add multiple bullet profiles to each weapon and the numbers always add up. Just make sure you are doing your part. The kestrel bluetooth mod is also really nice and quick when its cold out and you want to have steady holds and it allow s you to spend less time inputting data.

This application is very useful for getting into long range precision shooting and appears to be priced very reasonably for what you are getting. However, I am very disappointed that there does not appear to be a way to back up data for my weapon systems and corresponding ammunition. I am wary of even wasting the time to do so since it is inevitable that the phone will crash or need to be replaced at some point in the near to intermediate future. 3 stars will become 5 once this feature is added.
