Applied Ballistics Profile
The Applied Ballistics feature is intended to provide accurate elevation and windage solutions based on gun and bullet profiles and measurements of current conditions only. Depending on your environment, conditions may change rapidly. Changes in environmental conditions, like wind gusts or downrange winds, may have an effect on the accuracy of your shot. Elevation and windage solutions are suggestions only based upon your input into the feature. Take readings often and carefully, and allow the readings to stabilize after significant changes in environmental conditions. Always allow a margin of safety for changing conditions and reading errors.
Always understand your target and what lies beyond your target before taking a shot. Failure to account for your shooting environment could cause property damage, injury, or death.

|
The name of the selected profile. |
|---|---|
|
|
The distance from your current location to the ranged point. |
|
|
The vertical portion of the aiming solution, displayed in milliradians (mil) or minute of angle (MOA). |
|
|
The horizontal portion of the aiming solution based on the wind speed 1 and wind direction, displayed in milliradians (mil) or minute of angle (MOA). |
|
|
The horizontal portion of the aiming solution based on the wind speed 2 and wind direction, displayed in milliradians (mil) or minute of angle (MOA). |
|
|
The wind direction. |
|
|
The wind speed used for windage 1 and windage 2. |
|
|
The angle of inclination of the shot. A negative value indicates a downhill shot. A positive values indicates an uphill shot. The shooting solution multiplies the vertical portion of the solution by the cosine of the inclination angle to calculate the adjusted solution for an uphill or downhill shot. |
|
|
The direction of fire, with north at 0 degrees and east at 90 degrees. |
