[QUOTE="Catbrain, post: 2913485, member: 127536"] I dont currently have a chrono---- but I can estimate my velocity from the loading tables by interpolation. What if I just put a target out to say--- 500 yards---- shoot the target----- note the error in holdover and then go back to my drop-velocity- bullet weight tables and use the observed drop at 500 to see which curve I am matching. Then I can use that set of drops to make my range card. Would that get me in the ballpark ? ( I will get a chrono at some point) I think I read where strelok was no longer available ????? I thought I would buy a cheap used cell phone (not activated) as a dedicated platform for a ballistic program----- which one is a good basic one if strelok is not available any more ? [/QUOTE]
