Yep, they do have an app for just about everything.

There are a WIDE variety of freely-available ballistic calculators everywhere. That just happens to be for the Iphone. It's the same thing as a paper calculator (AKA doing the math yourself) except it's much faster. There are even watches with rudimentary ballistic calculators in them (VERY rudimentary)  

[Fresnel]

You know, Sierra Bullets sells (possibly gives away) a ballistics chart you can use to do these kinds of calculations yourself, assuming you use their bullets. Most of the math is easy enough to do in your head if you're smart or good with numbers, and windage can be applied fairly accurately by instinct, with a little practice.

Really, the application isn't NECESSARY, just a convenience. I've heard they have free versions online. I'm sure if I asked at the range I could find one. I know the rangemaster uses one all the time on his own bullets.

I'm just thinking the picture looks kind of funny, with a cell phone holder bolted on a gun. Could you just imagine someone talking on the phone while it is still attached? Or having your gun playing music while you shoot?

Edit: I would love to have Flight of the Valkyries playing while shooting a high caliber rifle.

"Yeah Bob, have *BLAM* the numbers faxed over to my office *BLAM* and I'll get to work on them as soon as I *BLAM* get back."
"Steve?"
"*BLAM* Yeah Bob?"
"What the hell are you-"
"*BLAM*"
"-doing?"

Two things.

1. Sierra Bullets manufacture their stuff in Sedalia, Mo, where I go to almost every weekend, and I used to live. I just found that out like last month,

2. One time we were at the range shooting, and my dad decided to order a pizza for dinner for us to pick up, and we were shooting in the background, and he told us the guy on the phone asked if he was ok. XD

I have an iPod Touch (second generation) and I plan to download the iSnipe app just for the jollies.

The fact that you can pull those stats off your pocket computer and can settle many a bar discussion is priceless. Don't know that I would want to mount my iPod to a rifle or shotgun though.

Now to buy another iTunes Store gift card...  

[Sidal]

I could see someone knocking their iPhone off accidentally... And considering I've seen the iPhone used as a ninja star (long story short: When at Universal's MiB, DON'T show off your phone during the ride.) and do decent damage.  

[Requiem ex Inferni]

That's epically stupid yet awesome at the same time. Now if it ever comes out for the Blackberry Storm, I'm in.

An as for what Demoneye said about music, if I ever go shooting with anything larger than .223, I want either "Boom" by P.O.D. or "Click Click Boom" by Saliva playing.  

[Desert_Fox_Rommel]

Well what about Trigger Happy?

Yeah, you could put your Blackberry Storm on your 'Sturmgewehr'.

Yeah, the Trigun/Trigger Happy compilation is awesome.

I downloaded the .flv file and can't stop playing it!!! Weird Al rules!

Well what about Trigger Happy?

That's been one of my favorite songs since I found that exact video. Doesn't exactly portray us gun nuts very well, but it's so darn catchy.
