With the new Norma Ballistics app, we expand the precision with which hunters and sport shooters can calculate their ammunition products with respect to ballistic performance. Since 2012, Norma Ballistics has offered users an easy and intuitive way to explore and simulate their favourite Norma bullets and cartridges. The latest release includes an updated 3-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) model which is accurate out to greater distances and integrates to your bluetooth-compatible Kestrel device for accurate atmospheric measurements. The Norma Ballistics app comes with a reworked database of ammunition products and our famous Reloading Data collection that is available in offline mode so that it is always available to you. Reloaders will also be able to calculate their custom bullets using custom barrel lengths. New for 2021 is a feature collaboration with Aimpoint to allow hunters, target shooters and operators to easily configure their Aimpoint® COMPM5b red dot sight with the Norma ballistics app. ## Key features - Ballistic performance calculation - Ammunition simulation - Kestrel device integration - Offline reloading data - Custom bullet calculation - Aimpoint sight configuration ## Recent user reviews (10 of 20) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/norma-ballistics/id889932567/reviews.md ### 2/5 — Limited calibers and cartridges *2025-07-06* Very limited range of calibers and cartridges. The Hornady app is superior in all aspects. ### 5/5 — Rough start *2025-03-16* Couldn’t find my bullet at first cause it’s a little confusing but once I got the hang of the app it’s super easy ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-07-31* This app would not load any factory cartridges that Norma has. Tried redownloading still would not work easier to type everything in on the Hornady app at least that one loads Hornady rounds. ### 1/5 — Faults with app *2024-07-24* This app has a simple and usable interface, however none of their cartridges or bullet libraries open, making the app totally useless. Extremely poor and disappointing from a company that manufactures excellent ammunition. It would be unconscionable to recommend to others. ### 1/5 — Trying to connect *2024-06-08* I downloaded the app and entered the info up until it was time to select caliber and bullet. Tried for several days to download Norma bullet BC. App never updated bullets. So far not happy. Hoping the writers figure out how to resolve ### 1/5 — Still waiting on the circle that never stops *2024-05-20* It pretends that it is downloading the cartridge info for as long as you are willing to wait. Never have been able to use it because it has never actually downloaded the info. Maybe it will be fixed someday. Not sure. ### 1/5 — Cartridge information would never load *2024-04-25* I downloaded the app. Put in the rifle information. Got to the cartridge information and I got the circle of death. I had an open and running for the entire 45 minute commute at home, and it never brought up one type of Partridge. Kind of an important part of ballistics. ### 1/5 — Can’t get it to load cartridge or bullet data *2024-04-23, version 6.0.16* Unable to use the app unfortunately as it seems to freeze up at the caliber selection screen. I am therefore unable to use it as I intended as I fire Norma factory ammunition. I hope this is resolved soon. ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-04-04* Thought this would be good, after buying a few boxes of Norma ammunition. But in setting up the app, the supposed pre-loaded ammunition profiles failed to load. Sure, I could input the data manually, but I have other ballistic calculators on which I can do that. They whole idea was for ease of use. Quickly deleted and won’t be back. ### 2/5 — The bc does not have all the Norma ammo *2023-03-25* The long range Norma Golden target in 143gr 6.5 creedmoor is not even in the tables. They only list 6.5 creedmoor as a hunting ammunition with their whitetail line. You would think they would have at least all of their offerings in the library. ## Frequently asked questions about Norma Ballistics ### What is Norma Ballistics used for?
