[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1696255, member: 94491"] depending on the distance you intend to shoot---some of the "lower end" apps and calculators use temp and altitude only-- get to "higher end" models and they use temp, pressure and humidity vs the altitude-- this is more accurate at longer distances as altitude uses a "chart" listed pressure rather than real time data-- wind will always be the limiting factor in my eyes-- you can use a wind meter to read the wind at your location, but wind differs from shooter to target over long distances, learn to read mirage and I feel it is better over long distances-- there are even apps to measure wind with mirage-- the more apps and meters you use, the longer it takes to input data, so " all in one" meters like sig 2400abs or 3000 bdx can help cut data entry time [/QUOTE]
