## What is Bushnell Ballistics?

Welcome to the new Bushnell® Ballistics Application powered by Applied Ballistics®.  It is a full-featured ballistics solver to use with your Bushnell rangefinders and riflescopes to calculate firing solutions. It allows you to use current atmospherics to calculate the holds and display the ranges at each subtension on your reticle. With this application, you can build and modify gun profiles, create a custom target, show a range card and calculate firing solutions based on your exact scope and ammunition.  Additionally, range cards may be emailed to yourself or a friend.

### 1/5 — Needs an update on settings for R5 rangefinder

*2026-01-03, version 258*

The app tells me i have a “Bone collector” rangefinder and therefore cannot use the applied ballistics on my R5 rangefinder accurately due to the fact i cannot set my scope hight to get an accurate setting input.

### 2/5 — Buggy profiles

*2025-11-13, version 258*

The profile system is so buggy as to make the app almost unusable. Selecting and creating profiles gives clearly incorrect results.

### 2/5 — Synchronisation décevante

*2025-10-27, version 258*

L’application en elle même fonctionne plutôt correctement. Une fois configuré les paramètres balistiques sont fiable et bien présentés. Cependant l’intérêt de l’application est de pouvoir synchroniser les données avec les produits de la marque. Et là, la synchronisation fonctionne au mieux une fois sur 10 rendant son intérêt très limité et non fiable.

### 1/5 — Terrible User Experience

*2025-10-23, version 258*

Almost impossible to load more than one ballistic profile at a time. 

Sometimes doesnt save data when you edit, sometimes it does. 

Pretty terrible app, making the ballistic reading on your rangefinder unusable.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-09-01, version 258*

Don’t waste too much of your time with this app. There isn’t a way to add new profiles and it’s very glitchy. Bushnell you have a lot of work to do.

### 1/5 — No customisation options on Bone Collector Range finder

*2025-05-30, version 258*

Bought a Bone Collector range finder, however no one tells you that your customisation options will be limited. Cannot change barrel Twist Rate, Scope height, Bullet length and more metrics that is important to ballistic calculation. Really disappointed.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-02-21, version 258*

I haven’t used this in the field yet, but I think it’s going to be outstanding. I’ve got my default 5.56 M193 load plugged in, and with a 50 yard zero, my first hold point down says 245 yards, which sounds exactly correct according to my old ballistic calculations. But now I don’t need to spend time beforehand making range cards for different variables and guessing what the humidity, exact elevation or barometric pressure is because the app has all current conditions taken into account. If you know your approximate muzzle velocity, and bullet information like ballistic coefficient you can edit the profile to match everything specific to your ammunition and rifle.

### 1/5 — Utter garbage

*2024-12-28, version 258*

Downloaded for 22 rimfire dope.  Very clunky to use.  Plenty of free ballistic calculators out there that are easier to use and offer more details.  Save your time and pass on this one.

### 1/5 — Freaking waste of time.

*2024-09-19, version 255*

Don’t buy bushnell range finders! The app is total ridiculous hard to work. It is a waste of time. Stay away from this third rate company.

### 1/5 — Need more calibers

*2024-09-12, version 255*

Very limited on  caliber  selection the 3 main rifle calibers I shoot aren't listed . Very surprised and disappointed
