## What is Bullet Flight M?

Note: This is the highest level of Bullet Flight (level M, Military). Also see BulletFlt L1 and BulletFlt L2 for lower-cost alternatives.

Knight's Armament BulletFlight is a military-grade ballistic computer that provides quick solutions in the field. BulletFlight does not output information in table format but rather dynamically gives you the solution you need now to make that shot. Current weather conditions including temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, and  wind direction can be input, as well as angles to the target as measured by the built-in accelerometer. The app then provides highly detailed solutions out to 3000 meters. Your weapon profile includes your scope MOA/mRad per click, and hence when you provide a range to the target, the app will simply show how many clicks you need to change the scope by for that range and wind speed.

Includes over 1400 projectiles including carefully-measured G7 BC database for VLD bullets. BulletFlight's G7 data is courtesy of Bryan Litz and I recommend his book: http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/index_files/Book.htm

Up to five ballistic coefficients with corresponding velocity thresholds may be used for each profile to enhance accuracy, or use a single G1, G7, or G8 value.

Several built-in profiles for the Army's M110 and M110C semi-automatic precision rifle, the Army's new XM2010 sniper rifle, the 14.5 inch SR16 rifle, The 50 BMG M107, .308 M40A3, .308 M24, and the 6.5mm KAC PDW allow you to get started quickly. You may alter these profiles, or add new ones.

This app was in combat use by military snipers in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

Features:
Built-in profiles for common military rifles, but easily add more custom profiles.
Accurate bullet database with most major brands.
3000 meters range (2000 using simple screen).
Fast and accurate ballistic computation using G1, G7, or G8 ballistic coefficients.
Easy to use interface yet powerful and full featured. All relevant data on screen all at once.
User interface designed to minimize chance of input errors.
"Simple Screen" with distance wheel, but also "Full" screen where any exact range may be used.
Output in inches, cm, MOA, Mils, and scope clicks.
Option for Metric units. In most cases imperial and metric are visible at the same time.
Direct input for scopes with either MOA or mRad metric input (such as Schmidt & Bender).
Calculates 360 degree wind drift using either degree of O'Clock format input.
Wind speed may be specified in either miles-per-hour or meters-per-second.
Advanced atmospheric model.
Uses GPS to locate nearest weather station and then automatically gets weather data and altitude for ballistic computation.
Sight-in weather may be logged and stored for automatic normalization to standard conditions. So you may sight in at any temperature or altitude and later be accurate at any other temperature or altitude.
Built-in accelerometer will detect angle for improved accuracy.
Computes actual BCs from collected data. Some users will do this for each log of ammo before a mission.
Built-in mil-dot range calculator.
Calculates bullet twist / stability with a highly-accurate formula.
Computes bullet spin drift.
Built-in help screen.

### 5/5 — My go-to software

*2024-12-12, version 4.6*

This software (M version) has provided me first round hit accuracy to 1528 yds with 6.5PRC and 7mmRM. Been usng this for nearly 2 decades. There is more expensive and complicated software but, IMO none better.

### 3/5 — UPDATE THE APP!!

*2024-10-03, version 4.6*

App needs updated

### 1/5 — App isn’t working with latest update

*2024-06-30, version 4.6*

Keeps crashing and or will not open

### 1/5 — Junk

*2023-08-28, version 4.6*

Don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — Awful Support

*2023-04-02, version 4.6*

Bullet Flight M does not work with my iPhone 13. Have tried to contact the developer twice now with no response. Apple support was not any help either! Beware of this app!

### 5/5 — Very accurate and easy to use

*2022-10-28, version 4.6*

I have been using this app for years and it has never let me down. 

It has given me correct dope that was accurate enough to make 450+ yard, first shot kills, year after year. 

I have tried other apps, but they were so complicated that it made them impractical to use. 

Bullet Flight  M is easy to use, especially when time is critical and you need dope now. 

I use it in my long range shooting school and I highly recommend it for all shooters.

### 4/5 — Great app Needs Updates

*2022-08-26, version 4.6*

Love this app and have been using for about 10 years. However they need to update ballistic profiles with bullets that have been released in last 5 years. Specifically ELD-X/ ELD-M and ABS profiles since data is out and public.

### 2/5 — No support

*2022-05-18, version 4.6*

The math used for ballistics is great.  Spot on. 

But there hasn’t been an update for years.  
Bullet data base is outdated, needs to work with Kestrel Link.

### 4/5 — Update the app

*2021-06-27, version 4.6*

Why hasn’t this app been updated ?

### 2/5 — Outdated and nearing obsolescence

*2020-10-08, version 4.6*

So many calibers and bullets have been added since this app has been updated, not to mention the new ballistic engines and research by Brian Litz and updated and more accurate BC’s.  The app is very useful and accurate if are stuck using one of the preloaded rifle and ammo combinations from the late 90s.
