stephentri Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Hi I have the strlock is it worth up grading to the pro version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akeld Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have the standard strelok, easy to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
247sniper Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Hi I have the strlock is it worth up grading to the pro version? IMO it is mate, it unlocks further function that are very helpful, like trueing functions, spin drift etc etc, plus if you wish to use it with your Kestrel device you can use it via blue tooth. Here is a video I done to demonstrate that. Â http://youtu.be/8IgO8zsd6U8 Â I have also been using Applied Ballsitc with the companion app, this is also very good. Â Â Hope this help? Steve.

Â Good video, what's the best way to find tune your drop, strlock shows me 11.2 clicks at 300 yards and 19.6 clicks at 400yds but when field tested 10 clicks and 18 clicks is what's needed ,is it better to increase the BC or the speed of the bullet to try and get it right.

Thank mate, glad you enjoyed it and found it useful and helpful, that was the purpose of it. Â What bullet and combo are you using to,start with, bullet ,caliber etc etc? Â If you chrono your load, bullet BC is the most misunderstood and usually by the manufacture over estimated or very selective with the information the print on their ammo boxes. Â Share what you are shooting and I'll be able to advise further. Â Â Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol  I have tried most if not all and prefer the ones I listed above. TBH it is really personal preference, they all do the sMe thing, just some have better function and are easier to use, again a lot down to personal preference . :-)  Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephentri Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Using 0.420 BC real world data 1.2in high at 300y and 2.5in high at 400yds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have iSnipe, Applied Ballistics and Strelok pro - after about eighteen months of use on the range, my preference is for iSnipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
247sniper Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Using 0.420 BC real world data 1.2in high at 300y and 2.5in high at 400yds Yeh, your using a G1 bullet BC which is not ideal tbh, better to use a G7 standard BC for long range. Â Is you programme predicting higher or real life test shooting higher then programme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

247sniper Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 What have you zeroed at, 100 by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephentri Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Yes 100 yards kahles 624i scope 1 click =1cm at 100m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
247sniper Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 You most likely have a false zero. A zero a smidgen off at 100 yards will be magnified at range greatly, thats why a 200 yard zero is better and more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephentri Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Thanks if I get a chance mid week i will check zero at 200yards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
