G.L. Perry EXBAL ballistics program - Is it GOOD?
What's your experience with the EXBAL (GL Perry Systems) external ballistics program? Is it a good program for various ballistic reticles? Is it worth the MONEY? Where in the USA is GL Perry located? Do you know his phone number?

I've not used the program, but there's some talk of it here

There are many ballistic programs available. I use BulletFlight on the iPhone. A buddy uses Shooter on his android phone. A more sophisitcated program is called Field Firing Solutions and some of my buddys swear by it. It's more expensive and runs on a PDA

I have been using the Perry Systems Exbal program for years and it has never let me down

I started using EXBAL about 2006-7. Love it. I'd still use if my two PDA's hadn't died. I switched out my HP laptop for an Apple MacBook; never going back to a non-Apple ever. Last I heard Gerald's stuff does not work with Apple. Too bad. I'm, now, totally in love with "Shooter" for my Droid phone.

I've also been using it for years now. Gerald is a great guy and listens to shooters who have suggestions about his program. His program has some features that most others i've seen don't (some are also starting to figure it out now though). He has options for reticle subtension changes in SFP scopes, trajectory validation if trajectory doesn't match initial calcs., and a few others that are handy to use and save calcing time.
