Riton 5*25*50.

Hi everyone, this is my first post on this forum so please forgive me if I don’t do everything correctly, I wouldn’t be that expert at this type of thing. I’m from Ireland and enjoy clay pigeon shooting but my main passion is air rifle shooting. I shoot a lot of vermin feral pigeons rats rabbits etc. I have an fx impact mk 2 in .22 and a hw 97kt. The hw shoots at 11.7 ft/lbs and I use it mostly inside buildings. The fx can shoot between 24 and 52 ft/lbs depending on the pellets/slugs and what setting I use. My reason for posting is that I have a riton 5*25*50 conqueror on the fx and had been using strelok pro, however since the situation with Russia this ballistic calculator is no longer available here. It was an excellent program. Does anyone know what can be used in its place . Regards Pat
 
I believe Chairgun elite stole the source code from Strelok.
It would be good to know exactly what went on as i have looked at chairgun elite and it sure does look very similar, the only thing is it costs £10.00 per year every year and will probably go up in time. Someone should be able to contact the strelok guy to find out. It should never have been taken down in the first place. We the ordinary sports shooters are the ones who are actually sanctioned. Bloody disgrace.

Pat, 😊

you have many options, and both of us not being US citizens and currently living outside the US makes things even easier.



1️⃣ Strelok


(a) For iPhone, just don't delete it from your old phone, but transfer it to your new iPhone.
Instructions:
o

(b) For Android you have 2 work-arounds with 2 non-Google app stores:
Instructions here:

● (Samsung) Galaxy Store —
only for Samsung cell phones

● Huawei AppGallery
If your Android is not a Huawei, then first install the Huawei AppGallery.
Then, in the Huawei AppGallery, install Strelok Pro.

(c) I'll send you a PM with a 3rd solution.



2️⃣ GPC Ballistics


By GPConway (George P. Conway)
In all platforms: Android, iPhone; Windows, MacOS, Linux

Many, many functions, specifically made for airgunning. Awesome!

3️⃣ ChairGun Pro​


The original app, from Hawke scopes.

Though discontinued, it still works on cellphones, and on windows computers. Sometimes you need to get an emulation program for an older operating system.
The windows version is still very powerful, many functions!


Updated for computers, here: Windows, MacOS, y Linux:


Cheers, 😊

Matthias

Jungle shooter, thank you very much for all your advice, very helpful. I don’t want to pay for basically a stolen product no matter how good it is.

Yes, I understand, I also would hate to use a program that was blatantly stolen from a gifted and very user oriented developer.

So, that eliminates ChairGun Elite (but not ChairGun Pro, an original Hawke product).


I have paid for Strelok Pro and therefore feel no remorse for using an APK file I found on the interwebs. As soon as the embargo against the developer is lifted, I will delete that file and use a regular downloaded version from an app store.

In fact, I hate subscription models with a passion, for apps and software.
But if Strelok would ever decide on a subscription, I would pay without hesitation. It's just so good. 👍🏼
