Peaceful. Precise. Armed.
The v = v + 0.1 of the “BC from Labradar tracks” calculator is here: https://bc.geladen.ch/labrabaco/labrabaco.html The major change is noise filtering. Most people who have plotted Labradar tracks in spreadsheet software, must have seen occasional tracks of this shape: The tail of the graph — beyond 60 ms — is obvious noise; there is […]
In the shooting world, the process of mounting a rifle scope is surrounded by an esoteric halo that to me is absolutely inexplicable. Some gunsmiths do not hesitate to charge obscene sums of money for a procedure that essentially lasts 15 minutes, and they multiply and spread legends with the motto “it’s very, very complicated”. […]
Full disclosure: To be clear, I am selling the Vortex and Vectors mentioned in the article. I chose them specifically for their qualities, and this test was to validate the choice before recommending them to others. It all started when I tested the “made in China” Vector Continental 34mm 3-18×50 FFP, and I was very […]
Labrabaco is a tool to calculate G7 BC values from Labradar tracks. Rejoice, citizens! The first official beta is out.
Nota Bene: this post contains excerpts from the Labradar user manual and quick start guide available at the official site here: https://mylabradar.com/download/. These, contrary to most of the rest of this site, are certainly not under WTFPL; I hope Labradar would not mind me repeating their instructions. 1. Read the Labradar manual, at least the […]
Everything listed here is free and open source software under the GPL3 license (with a few 3rd party libraries under 3-clause BSD). Enjoy. Plan 33 https://bc.geladen.ch/plan33/plan33.html This is an external ballistics engine, which (yet another…) calculates trajectories for different rifles+bullets in different atmospheric conditions. But this functionality is collateral damage. The main purpose of the […]

Motivations, intentions and disclaimers (brace for impact) This review has been written as a follow-up to this heated and particularly entertaining thread at Sniper’s Hide forums (UPD 2020: since that time, Sniper’s Hide moved back from scout.com to the original domain. As a result, all those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. But […]
It all started because targets to print available for download on the Internet are mostly crap. Either they use perverse, archaic and totally unmetric units of measure, or they are in jpeg 30×30 px format, or they have vanity watermaks all around the page, or are dimensioned for some funny paper sizes, or — most […]
