Profiles
A profile is one rifle-and-scope setup. Create one profile per rifle, or per rifle-and-load combination, so the solver has accurate inputs. The active profile drives every calculation the app makes.

Creating and editing
- Profiles (drawer → Configuration) lists your profiles; tap one to edit, or add a new one via the guided New Profile flow.
- Changes save as you type — there is no Save button.
- Tap the ? beside any field for an explanation of what to enter.
Key fields
- Muzzle velocity — the single most important input. Chronograph it if you can; see Importing Data for chronograph file import.
- Zero range — the distance the rifle is zeroed at.
- Sight height — centre of the scope above the centre of the bore.
- Barrel twist — rate and direction; used for spin drift.
- Projectile — attached from the library or your own entries; see Projectiles.
- Discipline — airgun, rimfire, rimfire PRS, centrefire hunting, long range, F-Class or PRS. Sets the default widget layout on Results.
Scope & reticle
The profile’s Scope panel holds the optic’s details:
- Tap the scope tile to open the Select Scope picker — a searchable library grouped by manufacturer (plus generic entries). Picking a scope pre-fills its specs and linked reticle.
- Tap the reticle tile to open the Select Reticle picker (grouped by manufacturer, with thumbnail previews). The reticle drives the Scope View widget.
- Picking a reticle whose design implies a focal plane (e.g. an “FFP” model) auto-selects that focal plane. For FFP the Calibrated Magnification field is advisory only — an FFP reticle reads true at every magnification.
- Scope Click Value enables the “clicks” adjustment display and the Scope View turret controls.
Per-profile units
Each profile can carry its own unit preferences (an airgun profile in metres and joules, a fullbore profile in yards and ft·lbf). See Settings & Units.
Layouts
Each discipline has a default Results layout; your customisations are saved per profile. See Results & Layouts.
