Is there a ballistics calculator that you can find info on a factory bullets performance past 500 yards? Remingtons calculator only goes to 500. I shot my last 300 ultra mag very well out to 500 yards but I never even once practiced beyond that. With this one I want to try a little farther. I know these calculations will only be close but they will help me get started when I finally get my new gun from the smith. The bullet I will be using is below. Thanks.

If you have an Ipod touch/iphone you can get the, Ballistic FTE app. It is pretty spot on most the time. It lets you put your inputs in: Bullet/BC, muzzle velocity, and than you can add all the atmospheric conditions, altitude etc.
Rgr, I have the KAC BC for the iphone... it's fun, you can enter everything from the weight of your clothes to the angle of the sun (joking) and it'll pop out the info for whatever range you set it to. I like it a lot. Just don't have the money to feed the beast to play with it.
It also comes with a database of bullets and yours is in there.

WINNER! Download this. Have it on my ipad. Its gonna work to get you in the right area. Haven't found any of them that spit out exacts. There are just too many variables affecting ballistics to plug-and-dial in dope.
Can also get one on the android

"Shooter" is great on the Android platforms. Well worth the 10 bucks.

I get dope from it that I've confirmed is good to 1,000 yards.
