Every smart rifleman needs Ballistics... Nimoh® Ballistics is unique across the entire smartphone marketplace in terms of practical features not found in any other ballistics application in the world and a professional smartphone user interface unrivalled in versatility. Aside from all of the standard features expected of a ballistics application, all the following unparalleled features included: 1. All three main modern ballistics methods – Point Mass, Siacci, and Pejsa, implemented correctly and accurately 2. Single System Console where all important data variables, turret adjustments, and sight picture are displayed 3. Custom virtual meters for input variables, beautifully crafted, including Anemometer, Wind Direction Indicator, Inclinometer, Compass and Hygrometer/thermometer 4. Up-to-date, 3500+ strong Bullet Database, all from manufacturer’s catalogues only – stored with manufacturer’s catalogue numbers and manufacturer only data – no spurious information from unofficial sources 5. Number selection dials for quick and easy input of numerical data – no cumbersome text boxes 6. Airgun mode which amongst other things, allows for muzzle energy input, accounting for the subsequent change in muzzle velocity, and allow when pellet is changed to another of a differing weight 7. Full user enable/disable help documentation available from all primary application pages to ensure correct operation 8. Instant elevation/windage adjustment value updates in real-time when any input variable is changed – no clumsy, extra-step ‘Done’, ‘OK’ or ‘Calculate’ etc. buttons 9. Instant saving of all variables to the application database – no inconvenient ‘Save’, ‘Close’, or ‘Store’ etc. buttons to be remembered. When the application is started, it starts where last left 11. Store an unlimited number of rifle/ammo configurations 12. Inline reformatting of range table plot intervals to facilitate easy reading – long range shooters can set intervals up to 500 yards or metres – air gunners as low as 1 yard or metre 13. Supports both portrait and landscape mode with neat navigable layout! 14. Aiming pointers on (low-cost, in-app purchased) stadiametric reticles for real-time target acquisition. Don’t simply take our word for it – try it! After all it’s free!

The Revic Ops App is a Free Ballistics Calculator for Long Range applications from Gunwerks. The new Revic Optics Ballistics Engine features a Ballistic Solver that uses a Modified Point Mass Solution (4 Degrees Of Freedom, or 4 DOF) backed by doppler verified ammunition ballistics. The cutting-edge ballistic calculator provides accurate shooting solutions by either ballistic coefficient (G1, G7) or drag coefficient based on doppler radar analysis of select bullets. A library with common, high performance bullets is included in the app and new projectiles are added automatically. The Revic Ops App works as both a powerful stand alone ballistic calculator and also for managing Revic devices such as rangefinders and smart rifle scopes by creating, storing and loading profiles directly from the Revic Ops app via Bluetooth. Profiles include caliber, barrel twist, sight height, muzzle velocity and more. Two-way bluetooth communication allows Revic devices to provide real-time information like station pressure, temperature and more back to the Revic Ops app ballistic calculator. Module Based Features include: Profile Management Create and store unique rifle and ammunition profiles, shareable with other users through QR Codes. Select bullet profiles from more than 950+ datasets. Ballistic Calculator Real Time calculations account for: Environmental Conditions, Target Azimuth and Angle, Wind Speed and Direction, Eotvos, Corriolis, Spin Drift, Aero Jump, and more. Weather Station Query National Weather Service Data based on GPS positioning. Sync or manually enter weather data into the Ballistic Calculator. Truing Profiles Calculate Muzzle Velocity and Ballistic Coefficients based on truing data at 2 known distances. Update Ballistic Profiles with calculated Truing Data. Sync Device Connect Revic Optics smart devices to upload Ballistic Profiles. Sync data among shooting/hunting teams across devices. Live View of PMR HUD Real Time updates of PMR Smart Scope Heads Up Display (HUD). Live ballistic calculation updates of Elevation and Windage based on Azimuth, Wind Speed, Distance and current turret positions.
