Just checking

Do you guys know of any free or inexpensive software that provides trajectory and energy calculations for rifle cartridges?

I have been using loads from a disk for years, but recently upgraded my computer and cannot find the disk. I only use the external ballistics part of it anyway. Don't want to purchase again if I can find something suitable for less money or free.

Thanks

I've not used the Hornady program off of its web site, but you might take a look at it:

Most of these programs work basically the same and take similar input data. They are worlds ahead of the original ones such as the Sierra External Ballistics program I purchased on a floppy disk in the '80s. Good luck.

I find a 300 fps difference between JBM and Berger free online tools!

Goole point blank software. Free. Used & loved it for years now.

Thanks to all.

Point blank will do just fine.
