I'd go with that, you can also use tables to calculate trajectory too but they are probably just used as a backup now.

You and Tefal are correct, PDA based Rangefinding GPS and ballistic software is common place. They can give you Range to Target, Elevation Adjustment, Windage Adjustment. Temperature reading, Barometric pressure, look angle and rotation and movement translation sensors. They are compatible with DOPE tables and MilDot scopes.

The Intervention for example comes with a tactical ballistic computer.

Knight Armaments do an external ballistics calculator for the ipod touch with mounts for various rifles.

Laser Range Finders are common place also.

Just curious do seals or grey fox use the intervention i know sniper scout are mad on their barret and remingtons.

I didn't realise the L96 was such a good rifle, id have fired that if i had known at the time, imo the SA80 was a pos. ;)

I wouldn't know about the Seals or any counter intelligence forces tbh.

The L96 is the standard LRR, It was standard issue for the BRF. slowly being rplaced by the L115A3 under the SSIP program.

I thought Heckler and Koch made a sight a few years back that pretty much worked it all out for you, (obviously skill and training still involved), as far as I remember from the explaination (which shows how wrong I could be) it had three buttons on it and you pressed them in sequence and it did skewed everything so you could put the target in your cross hairs and pretty much just pull the trigger.

Here is the M110, sporting an iPod Touch running the BulletFlight external ballistics calculator software...:D

Watched the Hurt Locker the other day and had my head in my hands at the sniper scene, what gets me is that people I spoke to were saying daft things like :

"Oh man that sniper scene! So realistic, was awesome etc. etc."
