Only one way to find out for yourself and thats go out and zero at 100 and then fire at 150 to see the drop..

or just zero an inch high at 100 and its pretty flat from 50-150

have the Strelock pro.Knock yourself out for a fiver/tenner ..:)
Great invention tis apps,but tBH I see it being more usable on a range than actually out on a stalk??Just feel it is information overload.

Great app I have used it to get me on target for :
22lr @ 100 & 200 yards
357mag rifle @ 100/200/300 yards
308 @ 100/200/300 yards & 400/500/600 yards

I use strelok + and find it good but prefer shooter as an app but recently purchased applied ballistics and it is an excellent app.

For strelok or any app, the level of detail of the data you put in will decide how successful it will be in use.

You can have 10 rifles with 10 different choices of ammo for each rifle.
So click on the rifle, & give it a name, then input the round details

Sounds about correct.
Scroll down and view the table after calculating

yup, theres very little drop from 100yards to 150 with the hmr, after that it begins to drop more. Are you getting around 8-9" or 16-18 clicks? at 200?

Is your scope 1/4" clicks or 1cm?

You should have 8 inches drop ish at 200.

My own quote is wrong.. for 200 yards on 1/4" clicks it should be 32 for 8"

Have you the scope settings set to 1/4 on the app?

Is everything else right like the BC, and FPS etc?

Only thing to do next is set up a target at 200, with a range finder and dial in and see how accurate the app will be for you.

It is available for Android devices and phones too.

Three versions, strelok free, strelok +, strelok pro.

Also if you are on Android, check out shooter and applied ballistics. Excellent apps.
