If you like knowing more about the ballistics of your ammunition, Federal Premium Ammunition has a new app that should fit your gun-loving expectations. The new app covers everything from ballistics to making recommendations regarding loads and even directs you to where you can buy them. It works on Apple and Android smart phones and tablets, so odds are you have a device it’ll work on. Users can purchase the new app on Google Play or through the iTunes store.

Federal has been manufacturing ammunition since 1922 and has come up with numerous types of ammunition for various uses. Whether you’re a hunter, a target shooter, or carry a gun primarily for self-defense, they have something to suit your needs. With their new app you can locate that particular load more easily, collecting data in advance instead of simply reading what’s printed on the boxes in the gun store.

Visit the company’s website at www.federalpremium.com and head to the Google Play store or iTunes to purchase the app itself.

From Federal:

“Federal Premium® Ammunition—founder and leader of the Premium® ammunition category—has launched a new mobile Ballistics App compatible with both Apple and Android smartphones and tablets. The Ballistics App contains four key user functions, which include the Ballistics Calculator, Load Recommendation, Where to Buy, and Where to Shoot.

Key Functions
• Ballistics Calculator: Quickly determines the trajectory for any Federal Premium rifle or handgun load.
• Load Recommendation: Guides hunters and shooters through a series of filters to identify the best ammunition for their firearm and use.
• Where to Buy: Locates the nearest Federal Premium retailers, using the device’s GPS capability.
• Where to Shoot: Locates nearby shooting ranges using the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s WhereToShoot.org.

Consumers can get the app through iTunes Store or Google Play.

“Our app is a great on-the-go tool for everyone from beginners to avid shooters,” said Federal Premium Ammunition Category Director Rick Stoeckel. “From recommending the ideal load for any species or shooting need, to calculating ballistics and finding ranges and retailers, our new app will help enhance anyone’s shooting or hunting experience.”
