Ballistic Calculators for Long Range Shooting - Range Cards Tutorial Part 2

[@msairrifletech]

I'm seeing this after 7 years and I realised how much Matt has grown since then. It's the prize of hard-work and consistency

[@MAAAH1581]

what a huge difference between that time and now you are such a good public figure 💐

[@Natsync]

Heads up for Android users (April 2019).....Weatherflow wind meter will not work directly with Strelok Pro. You have go to the wind meter app, copy the data then go back to Strelok Pro to input it. Don't get caught out. Saying that there is a bluetooth version called a Weatherflow Weather meter. Apparently this works with Strelok Pro. I have not tested this though.

[@brandonb4177]

every time i look something up i find u or ted. so well explained n so much experience!

[@derivas007]

this kind of video is rare and very happy to see it

[@johnweima7501]

Thanks for for reviewing Strelok Pro and the WeatherFlow! Went right out and bought both, awsome app, much better than Chairgun on the iPhone.

[@Matt-ty6hp]

I appreciate your skills and you just being a good dude. You are very easy to like and follow. Thanks and God bless.

[@Johnyrocket70]

I use geoballistics on a spare phone and tablet. You can pay once and download the app using the same email on multiple devices. The app also uses Google Earth and GPS to range targets.

[@regsparkes6507]

I like this windflow meter and the app. I will be checking into this early next week. Thanks.

[@GregAllen2]

Awesome information! Thanks for the taking the time to make the videos. I enjoy watching & learning from them! Cheers, Greg

[@gustibudidarmawan7699]

Saya suka setiap tutorial x. Terimakasih sudah menjadi inspirasi saya.

[@debobba]

Thanks for the imfo very helpful , it makes it a whole lot easier to understand , and the wright AP to get . Great stuf !

[@binness]

As you are in SA you gets lots of sunshine so you could rig up some form of solar power to top up your phone. I see you are using a windometer ( if that's the right name ) but surely you need the wind at the target, and that could be 180 deg out from where you are, as I am sure you know, so how do you get round this ?. Also I would like to say your video's are very good, as is your aim. ATB8 keep giving us more, thanks for your effort.

[@sr_og3652]

This tutorial is easy to understand. Thanks

[@mechredd]

I've been using Chair Gun Pro and Hawke BRC on my smartphone for a while, and they seem to be fine. Strelok Pro looks nice. I'll have to pick that one up, but after I get a new phone. Mine is overdue for a trade in.

[@moulindubarma7901]

I am real fan of your vdos, i like the effort, time n thought put in to make a single vdo. Would love to see you in a slightly different genre of springer for a change.

[@shep6123]

Thank you you're very good at Explaining good things

[@SquirrelHunter]

Very useful info there, Matt ;-)

[@rodgetaylorjnr]

both great videos as usual .... very informative .. top man

[@shank918]

Christian Surfer eh? Im part of the Christian Surfers in St. Augustine, Florida. Very nice sir.

[@gunsnbrother7899]

Hello I am KO SE from INDONESIA, I have a sidewender SR PRO 4-16 × 50 And I've downloaded the X-ACT app, I have not understood how to read the special left and right turrets to adjust the left and right pellet trajectory due to wind, I want to ask to adjust in the table, how to read left and right turret click ?, please explain the function of each POA (cm), POA (MOA) & POA (CLK) Thank you greetings from Indonesia

[@alanperry9744]

Hi there Matt I wonder if you could take a look at this KZbin clip Tracking Tradectory -. 22vs,177 airgun pellets really interesting. Think think you could do more with what is being shown look forward to seeing what you make of it

[@ConorJW]

Can you do a video going into more detail on the settings you use in a hunting scenario

[@mattwhite9874]

yes a touch more info on strelok would be great as its designed for biggerbore rifles really. for instance what do u put when it asks for twist rate? mine is 1 twist in 15.5 inches, so do i put 15.5" also what do u put for vertican clicks mine is a 1/8 moa @ 100 so i just put that as a decimal which is 0.125 is this correct. and the last 1 what do u put where it says bullet length, as i measured the pellet with a caliper to get 0.251" (177 jsb 8.44 grain) as you can tell we are not finding at as easy as you you must be very intelligent. i ask these queations as i have input all my data and it still doesnt seem to coincide with my poi (point of impact) any light on these questions either just responding or another vid would be great matt thanks for your awsome help.

[@garypostell5268]

Outstanding thanks for sharing 💯🇺🇸👍

[@hike61]

Thanks for the info CA, and I will get the s510 in 22 with a much better scope.

[@tacticalalltheway]

There is no free version for iOS and for airguning the cheaper version works just like the pro version.

[@johanswart8116]

Strelok can help you makeing dope cards.

[@espressojoe]

WOW! That's incredible! If I get a decent PCP and scope, and find myself long range hunting allot, I'll definitely throw the extra $50 at this... My Dad has an old Samsung Gallaxy I could probably use... :P Thanks! :D

[@rhysfaulkner9769]

How did you get the reticle on your camera for doing the slop angles ? When I select that option it just comes up as a black screen with the angle of degrees in the middle of the screen ???

[@airgunsofwisconsin1232]

I have strelock pro and I strelock out of your recommendation

[@Paglingniyalan]

what should i do if my scope model not existing in strelok pro?

[@espressojoe]

YAY! PART 2! :D

[@derrickmitchell39dm]

I dont understand how to do the clicks on my scope on strilok.

[@genekhuc8824]

I didn't understand the part about the wind direction how will I determine that? Does the App have an internal wind Compas like some other apps? I'm asking because I don't have a wind meter

[@socalairrifles6921]

love the shows! question I had do you need to have the wind meter? or can wind speed estimated and added manually? Thanks again from california

[@byronstrohm3288]

Hi. Are you still using this setup with the weatherflow? Or have you changed, if so to what. I see that there is also a green weatherflow that is made for precision shooting. Was that not available or why did you get the blue?

[@mariskal7834]

whats your opinion.... strelok vs chairgun for Android. thanks

[@martin.cloutier]

Hi man, I have the pro version and I just can't figure out where to tell the apps that my riffle is set to 0 at 100 yards. I mean if I want to have the good hold over at 300 yards the apps have to know where my 0 is set at, right? Thanks for your help

[@najihm9194]

Hi Matt. What do you think about hawke chairgun balistic calculator? I use both chairgun and strelok but it gives different result.

[@enricoaquinde5940]

Is that app work offline? There are hunting areas wherein no wifi signal at all

[@hike61]

I really enjoy your videos. I am shooting a benj. NP xl 1100 for now , looking to upgrade to a s510 , soon I hope. I am not as fast a learner as you. If you could spend more time on the strelock app maybe breaking it down a bit I would appreciate it. Also it doesn't have my scope, center point 3x9x40 AO with 3 mil dots. What do you suggest reticle I should substitute ?

[@edgarlombera7066]

Save up for the s510 in .22 its worth it! It doesn't have to be the scope brand just the reticle. In your case a generic mildot reticle I had it before too that's why but if you end up getting the AA invest in a much better scope to really see its potential

[@AA-rc4zr]

Thank you Matt. Always enjoy your videos. I‘Ve tried using the MTC app that’s recommended with the range finder. It seems to have many of the features you mentioned, but it’s not accurate at all. It’s off by 2” at 100 yards. Am I using the device/app incorrectly or is this the best you can expect? Thx

[@ToreDL87]

I have had issues with that using subpar products (apps) as well, one app I tried years ago, the data didnt even LOOK right and as it turns out the app didnt take into account the drop of velocity over distance, hitting several mils below, resulting in complete misses. I can recommend Strelok Pro because if you get your data right it guides those pellets in just perfectly with no issues.

[@ahmed-mi3fc]

Are their any manual calculations for windage?

[@carsmax]

Hi Matt. You messure windspeed at your position ..... How do you know wind speed and direction at target ???? This wind meter device is not to use

[@BloodyKnives66]

You can judge that by the trees movement, flags, etc

[@terrywright5306]

Matt, what part of SA are you in. It's such a huge place, or is it very similar all over SA ?

[@hoikhongbietmoi]

hi Matt! how to do you measure wind direction degrees, please?

[@rolandcolavizza5368]

Hey mat if u ever come up to Johannersburg I would like u to Review my Zoraki HP o1 and my SPA P12

[@grizwoldstad9956]

Does this work without cell service? I know the Strelok free version so you cn add most of the variables before going in the field but when in the field if you have no service how good is the weather flow device?

[@howdydoody30204b]

You promised the range cards, and I would still like to see the process by which you create them. Using Stelok is, I'm sure, great, but, as you point out, there are problems in using your smart phone for this sort of thing, including a hard to read screen in bright daylight, and I, for one, will not be using it. I hope you will still do the range card tutorial.

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

Already done...If you watched part one first (like I advised) you would know how to make the cards.

[@howdydoody30204b]

AirArmsHuntingSA I did but remember that the meat of the instruction was supposed to be in Part 2. I have it queued to watch again to try to see what I missed the first time around. Anyway, thanks for replying. I have enjoyed your videos immensely and consider you an artist with an airgun. I just wish that the darned things were not so expensive so that more people could afford the "good stuff".

[@howdydoody30204b]

Jere Moore Okay, I see that it was only the air density part that was to be left to Part 2, but I see also why I had the feeling at the end of Part 1 that I did not know any more after viewing the video than before. I already knew where to get the data. What I had hoped to see was how to put it all together into the nice package that you produced, and, of course, that did not happen. Of course, it may have been too much to reasonably expect, so, rather than whine about what you did not do, let me just thank you for all that you have done. Cheers and good luck.

[@howdydoody30204b]

Jere Moore Okay, Matt, I've decided to take an expert's advice and have purchased Strelok Pro. You must have demo'd the I-Phone version, however, because the Android version doesn't seem as nice. Nice enough, though. I still cannot see using my Note II out in hunting conditions, though, and I know from experience that I will have trouble seeing the screen in bright sunlight. How much of a problem that will be remains to be seen as I try it out. In my own case, anyway, I will probably look for a used phone of some sort that is waterproof and shock proof. Since it will not be activated, I will have to get the barometric and humidity data elsewhere. Just thinking out loud at this point.

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

I can totally understand why somebody wouldn't want to take their phone out into the field. I suppose its really up to personal preference - for me, Strelok was the way forward (after using cards for 4 years), but it may be different for different people:)

[@birdmanoo0]

I know this is a very old video but hopefully someone could answer my questions. What is a good alternative to Strelok Pro? It is banned where I live and there does not seem to be many apps that are good for airguns. Maybe chairgun but it is no longer supported. It seems many calculators ask for your bullets drag function. What would be the best for a pellet or slug? I'm guessing G1 is fine for slugs but what about pellets?

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

Element Ballistics👍🏻

[@birdmanoo0]

@@AirArmsHuntingSA Wow thanks, I honestly didn't expect a reply from an 8 year old video. I was messing around with the Mero app and it doesn't seem as refined as EB and it doesn't do firearms. It seems Element ballistics looks good for firearms as well as air guns. Which is great for me as I do shoot both. Really nice getting current weather automatically. And looks wise the EB beats out Meto hands down. For apps EB wins hands down but Mero's computer software has some really cool features. Printable range cards and scope tapes. Calculates your best point blank range. And a bunch of other stuff. Sad that it seems to be only for airguns. I would say it is worth looking into if you haven't already done so. Thank you for the app suggestion, I'll likely try out both and see what works for me.

[@peitsenical9972]

Must your scope be at a specific height for this app to be accurate with its calculations ? And what should you zero point be for this app to work?

[@henriqueigormsk818]

Much good your video !! congratulations Do you think that this app (strelok pro) is good for calculate shots of firearms at long range ?

[@wilsonsoaresdourado9493]

+Henrique Igor Yes. Strelok is a firearms ballistic calculator.

[@garethfox6537]

Great tutorial mat, just wondering you talked about the two different strelok apps one free and the other brought, what's the main differences between the two what don't u get on the free version Chears Gareth

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

garethf fox On Apple there is no free version, but on Android there are three versions: Strelok (free), Strelok+ and Strelok Pro. The free version does not allow you to change the scope magnification on reticle view, does not allow you to find the incline, is not compatible with the WeatherFlow. The full version also allows you to connect via Bluetooth to a Kestrel weather station and updates the conditions in real time which is insane. As I said, the free version works fine - But I decided (for myself at least) that it was completely worth it to spend the extra cash

[@fincaalcanara]

I just bought this app (Pro) from the app store for my iphone/ipad. However I cannot find any list for air rifles.... they are all firearms. I cannot find any database with pellets on.... they are all bullets??? Can you help?? Regards Stuart

[@fincaalcanara]

fincaalcanara can you help????

[@exploretheworld1324]

Is it really working?

[@jonathanross4196]

You see a squirrel, set the info into the phone, you look back and..... its GONE!!! No animal, it has moved to a new location. How do you deal with this.?

[@markgentry4730]

I have a Cricket standard in 22, and I down loaded Strelok Pro. Could you tell me how to find the airgun data, like different pellet data, and air rifles.

[@wilsonsoaresdourado9493]

+Mark Gentry You must use Chairgun database to get what you want.

[@Mclarenshaun]

Hi Matt, How do i work out the exact BC for each pellet weight, was wondering if you could help with this?

[@binness]

Shaun Mclaren Hi there go on you tube and look for Si Pittaway, he an airgunner and was a army rifle shooter, he shows you how to calculate your own BC, he also go into more depth on using chairgun pro. ATB

[@rahimjaffer9891]

Hi Matt wanted your opinion I want to by .22 calibre Pcp Airgun for Hunting purpose accurate & powerful what would you suggest pls let me know thanks regards Rahim.

[@TheFAHADQ8]

Buy any FX

[@fredeheerser7914]

Somewhere, someone is raging right now cause he spend all week struggling making those range cards and now figures out theres an app....

[@fredeheerser7914]

tasmedic I was just joking mate :-), good arguments dough

[@extrastuff9463]

tasmedic Also a pretty important experience to have it done at least once, by going through the process you get a bit more familiar with the what a particular change to something will affect rather than letting the app brainbox do the thing and tell you want the point of impact will be. But once past that whichever works best for your situation is the right way, I've seen a person as well once who did the plastic laminated cards but with two tiny rings in the upper right and left corners and a whole stack of them. So he could flip through it like a little booklet to get the one matching best with the current conditions.

[@guillermodeleon5073]

Super nice :)

[@screech1233]

might work well in a video but when out hunting ,by the time I get all that information into the phone the prey will have died of old age
