Getting into 22lr precision shooting. Is there a best or favorite ballistic app that shooters can recommend?
None work very well with .22's. The dope that works one day can be quite far off just hours later. I don't have a definitive explanation, but I speculate it's barrel temperature/lube temperature related. I have data cads hanging off my .22's, but they are really just rough starting points.
Weasel words out of the way, I use Ballistic AE. It seems to do as good a job as any considering the kooky ballistics of .22's.
I use JBM ballistics as a baseline.
Verify data the day of and adjust from there.
Inside 100 yards everything is pretty solid. Past that it starts to get weird.
Why does weirdness lead the way?
I use Shooter. It works well and doesn't cost much. As others have said 22 is a different animal.
