Use the BlastCam app to record and playback videos of your shots. The app also features the shot simulator functionality, that allows you to visualize where your shot will impact! This functionality is great for teaching those new to shotgunning and also for helping experienced shooters to fine tune their technique. Our lead calculator uses ballistics calculations to determine the exact amount of lead needed to hit the target. This allows you to vary the direction, speed, range, and height of the target as well as the type of shot, the choke, and the muzzle velocity to calculate the perfect amount of lead. This is the perfect app for anyone who enjoys the challenge of shooting shotguns. Highly recommended for upland hunters, waterfowl hunters, sporting clays, trap, and skeet enthusiasts!
