[QUOTE="Broz, post: 927645, member: 7503"] We ( BnG and I) just conducted an extensive test of Ballistic Apps for another forum. I can tell you with confidence that many apps will fill the bill for most shooters. As for shooter and AB, they ran hand in hand out to 1200yards. After that Applied Ballistics using its Custom Drag Modeling started inching away. This was off the bench with a very accurate rifle, good conditions, and solid inputted rifle and load data. The test was shot twice over two different days to repeat and confirm results. We shot every 400 yards all the way to 1773 yards where we had repeated hits all inside 1/2 moa.with all shots. The final test was done firing two shots to simulate a cold bore and a follow up. Rifle was allowed to cool completely for each distance. I was impressed with all the apps we tested. Personally I use Shooter and Applied Ballistics. But if you are going to shoot ELR, at distances past 1500, I recommend you go with Applied Ballistics and buy a custom drag model for that bullet. AB is spot on to well past a mile and we documented this. After that environmental conditions take over and it is hard to detect the small differences between apps. For example at 2000 yards there was only .3 moa difference between Applied Ballistics and Cold Bore 1.0. It is pretty hard to say which is more accurate at 2000 yards. So at that point review which app you prefer for, ease of use, option package, and price and go with it. Jeff [/QUOTE]
