[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 2913505, member: 68542"] Strelok is no longer available, you are correct. A lot of people like the Shooter app instead. I’ve never used it personally. If you have verified drop at 2 distances you can build your dope card. 3 distances is even better. Velocity doesn’t really even matter at that point although you can figure it out easily enough. The only need for velocity in the equation is to make assumptions on where those further dope points will be. If you provide them to the app, is easy math to build a dope chart. Sight in at 100, get your real drop at 300 and 500 (assuming your load is accurate to put a 500 yd group down and not a shotgun pattern) and then us any ballistic app and your presumed velocity to see if the projected drops match you actual. Adjust velocity accordingly. This method relies on an accurate BC, so make sure you’re not using some of the inflated factory bc numbers certain mfgs give. [/QUOTE]
