Round Ball & Shot Calculator

Have you ever wondered if you could poke a hole in that duck over there? Have you ever wanted to take down a tyrannosaur with depleted uranium musket balls? Have your friends ever accused you of being a real shot head sometimes? If so, this app is for you! It is not very expensive, and I think it could really help with your problems. It's true. This app can calculate the relationship between shot density, mass, and caliber. You can select from a gourmet menu of all American shot sizes (or any custom caliber), and see the shot in actual size right on your screen. This truly incredible technology is like a barrel of boiling candy for your eyeballs. Don't forget that your planet has all manner of great materials just waiting to be sent downrange - The faster the better. As long as your balls are round, this app can calculate the kinetic energy over distance, and then estimate where it will end up and how much work it can do. Do you have the right shot for the job? Here's what you can calculate with this thing: • Size • Mass • Velocity over time • Energy • Drop • Ballistic gel penetration • Moving target interception • Pellet count • That's basically it ---Frequently Asked Questions--- Q: Can I switch the units over to metric? A: No Q: What are those shapes in the Estimated Penetration box? A: Those are 6x6" blocks of ballistic gel, of variable length, with a red line through the shot pellet. Sorry if it looks stupid - I didn't invent that stuff. Q: Does the Interception calculation only work on ducks? A: The interception calculation works on any target, but I just thought the duck was cuter than a turkey. Q: What should I put in for Muzzle Velocity? A: Don't ask me, I'm not your mom. Q: Why does the trajectory not exactly match a ballistic figure I found in a magazine from 1997? A: Small shot performance is extremely sensitive to atmospheric conditions. Establish a reference point by adjusting the Elevation to match your field results. Also, question any random data like this. Trust but verify. Q: Why can't I correct the trajectory for wind or Coriolis effect? A: Because this isn't Ballistic ConquerorX Extreme Pro Elite Season Pass With 10,000 Special Edition Reticles™. Q: Can I use this for Airsoft or Paintball? A: This calculator works on any smooth-ish round balls that move through the air. However, it does not model backspin trajectory (or "hop up") that some such devices impart. Watch out - Round Ball & Shot Calculator is not a substitute for safe range practices. Always calculate responsibly.
