Great training app!
I’ve used this app several times now, and it’s a great training aid. Beginner to advanced will benefit.

If you are interested in becoming a more proficient shooter this app is a must. The more I use BR the more I find not only what it can do but it gives me the tools to become better. Yes BR can analyze your shot groups but it can also provide the insights to become better. 1) I discovered in BR a tab marked INSIGHTS. Using insights I can analyze various shooting factors such as my shot groups performance based on ammo. (Using ammo is just one of many factors that can be used to provide meaningful results.) From what I read on the internet I thought ammo from company A was better than ammo from company F in my rifle. To my surprise using BR I can clearly see that ammo-F is superior (in my rifle.) I will definitely look at the other factors to help me become better. 2) Another tip - there are a myriad (over 100 Insights) of available factors that can provide valuable information. BUT you can use sliders to shorten the list. At the top of the INSIGHTS tab you will see FILTERS. Select filters than select SELECTED INSIGHTS. Here you can temporally remove factors from display so you can narrow the list to the factors you are interested in. 3) You vs Everyone. If you go to the SESSIONS tab in the middle you will see Benchmark Shot metrics. Initially they say "Personal Percentile.” These are YOUR shot metrics and compares metrics with YOUR other range sessions that have the same target distance and weapon type. Now if you tap on the screen it changes to Global Percentile. Now it displays how your shot metrics compare to the World (or at least to everyone who has entered their shot metrics into the Ballistics Report world.) one more tap on the screen and it hides the percentiles. Note: I’m not the developer of Ballistics Report but I am fairly confident this is how it works. 4) You will notice that the percentiles are either RED or GREEN. What I’ve determined is that if the percentile is between 1 - 49 it is red but green if the percentile is between 50 - 99. This gives you a quick visual representation how this metric compares to history. 5) More On Insights. Clicking on the INSIGHTS tab you will first see a few BEST metrics. (EX: Best MOA Shot Accuracy.) After the bests you will see metrics displayed either with a bar chart (ex: Avg MOA by Ammo) or with an area chart (ex; Avg MOA). On a bar chart if you tap on one of the bars you display the value for that bar. This allows you to select and view the specific value. On an area chart you can move (use your finger) the vertical “date” line to view that value from a prior session. This allows you to see how session values are changing (good or bad.) 6) In an area chart as you move the vertical date line the values are RED or GREEN and + or - . After my analysis this is what I’m seeing. The value at each date are RED if that value is Worse than the previous value. How much worse is +number. If the value at the current date line is better than the previous value the color is GREEN and - number. I hope my notes will help you get the most out of Ballistics Report.

App use
So far, I’ve only had a chance to shoot this new AR 10 build one time I was adjusting zero on my scope. I haven’t gone into detail with using the app but so far seems user-friendly.
Cool App
This is pretty cool. This will definitely help me with my range visits.
Not worth it within 5 minutes
Went to set up my first gun and they don’t have my caliber. It’s a 7mm Rem Mag, so it’s not like I have an uncommon round. I haven’t made it any further into the app before being asked to review, so this is really all I have right now. Can’t say I reccomended it so far
Response from developer
Thanks for letting us know about the missing caliber. Just added it and should be available immediately. 👍 Let us know if there’s anything else we’re missing or anything you’d like to see in the app. Thanks again for letting us know!

Seems like a great app.
It’s nice to have this to track sessions. Helpful when I trying to remember how my last day with the particular was for comparisons sake.
Not free
Forces you to buy the app through in app purchase after you download it. Scam.
