    Offline Ballistics Trajectory phone app

    I'd check in the app store for a "barometer" app. I'm pretty sure that if you get shooter or applied ballistics you can "Acquire Atmosphere" from your own device. I can on android. I'm not familiar with iPhones.

    Offline Ballistics Trajectory phone app

    Most smartphones these days have a pressure sensor, so if you get a little 50 cent keychain thermometer you can get your environmentals without a kestrel. Both Applied Ballistics and shooter will pull data directly from your phone sensors.

    Buh Bye OnX .... Hello GAIA!

    No, the the most recent download was the MT BMA 2021 layer. And the other layers I have downloaded are the gaia topo, public lands, and the USFS trails. I guess I can understand it when it is a 3rd party layer that is being downloaded, but when your own proprietary topo map takes forever to...

    Buh Bye OnX .... Hello GAIA!

    So I take it back. Long downloads still get shut down in the background when I use the phone and don't just set it down and let it do its thing. Trying to download the 2021 BMA layer for MT it is taking a ridiculously long time and has stopped on me once so far. ETA: it stopped on me multiple...

    Buh Bye OnX .... Hello GAIA!

    So I bitched about the map downloads months ago when I first started using Gaia and it seems they have at least corrected the "wont download in background" issue. However their downloads are still slow as all hell. I just had a couple map updates to their topo map layer and public land layer...

    Best 10mm Hollow Point

    Speer makes a 200gr gold dot, federal has a 200gr HST loading. Both of these are designed around the 10mm velocities and aren't a .40 s&w projectile driven faster than it was designed. I would look into them for defense against 2 legged predators.

    Done With Leica

    @gr8fuldoug is the absolute bomb. I had an issue with a set of geovids I bought from a competitor and they wouldn't help me as I was outside their 30 day return window (had ordered when overseas). Reaching out to leica CS got me an automatic "we are all out of the office due to covid and...

    Airline Travel with Rifle

    I don't know how you booked your flight but give Air New Zealand a call for sure. I had a hunt planned in NZ last march and booked through United, their US partner. I had called Air NZ about being good to go and everything seemed fine at first. They called me back later and explained that...

    BHA Supports an Eco-Terrorist to Head BLM

    This is the internet and its 2021. Anything that doesn't meet the ideological purity of the party is to be purged, preferably with fire.

    Hilleberg 2 tent setup for July-end of Sept in CO

    I think you'll like the Rogen. I got mine for mostly solo camping, but with the ability to fit a second person with each having their own vestibule and entrance. I've only used it solo so far, but it's a palace for one, and would be doable with 2. If you're going to be pitching it in heavy...

    22 Mag Gen 2 water bladder question

    I ended up with a Stryker xl, and it checks all my boxes for day hunts. Thanks though.

    Need help to "true" my chart...or should I bother?

    Re-reading your OP I would definitely double check your zero. You have a 0.3 mil error at 300 and a 0.4 mil error at 600. Assuming everything else is correct my best guess you are low on your 100yd zero by around 0.3 mil and a slight tweak to your initial velocity guess would get everything to...

    Need help to "true" my chart...or should I bother?

    Aerodynamic jump is not going to result in a 0.7 mil difference between theoretical vs actual results. The OP needs to go through his inputs one by one and make sure he understands what they are and that they are correct. Make sure your not using a g7 BC number if your program is referencing a...

    Need help to "true" my chart...or should I bother?

    Read this. It sounds like you have a combination of factors screwing up your results. With a somewhat accurate BC, you should be able to get a close match out to 600yds by just adjusting muzzle velocity......IF the other inputs are correct...

    Does your non-floating barrel shoot well?

    Non-freefloated barrels won't neccesarily shoot badly, they can shoot quite well. What a free floating barrel gives you is the ability to put varying forces on the rifle forearm without affecting your point of impact. Whether or not that is advantageous or noticeable to you is entirely up to...

    Montana HB 677, another gem.

    Whoa dude, put the facts down! Let me explain how things work these days in 2021. If someone doesn't agree with every single viewpoint you hold on every single issue they are either a communist or a fascist. Therefore, anyone who works with them, in order to advance causes you might both agree...

    If you owned NVGs, would you bring them on a hunt?

    I'm going to echo what the above posters said. It's harder to move under NODs than a good red lens headlamp. It's also not nearly as effective as a bright white light for checking out a bump in the night. A set of 14s will weigh more than both combined. That being said, if you want to play...

    Montana HB 677, another gem.

    I'm not super up to speed on agricultural tax law. But If this bill had included stripping away all the state tax benefits that go towards agricultural business, then I might have bought the "even playing field" argument.
