Bullseye AmmoCam Long Range Edition Review
Observations
It should be noted that the software versions for the three different platforms that I utilized (Android, iPad and PC) are not all created equal. The Windows PC version contains by far the greatest amount of tools and user inputs. With the PC version, you can mark shots with numbers and colors and track shooting sessions by load, rifle, shooter, distance to target and by location. This can all be saved for reference or viewing later.

The iPad and Android versions are a good step down from the PC version. With my iPad I could save the thumbnails of my shots to my photo album for later viewing, but I could not add any information or edit the thumbnails as I could on the PC. As a side note, I personally preferred using my iPad the best. It was more compact and less cumbersome than a laptop in the field while still offering a larger screen than my phone. The anticipated software upgrade for the iPad platform would make it the all-around champ in my opinion.
My Android phone interface was simpler still. I could review my shots while in the Target Manager app, but could not save them to my phone. Taking a screen shot would be one solution but I still couldn't input additional information as with the PC version.
I asked Nick Skrepetos of Bullseye about the differences in features between the three software versions, and he confirmed that he plans to upgrade the Apple version and then possibly the Android version to the current level of the PC version of the software. In fact, the upgrade for Apple devices will probably be available free of charge from Bullseye before this article is printed.

Clint Bryant was born and raised in Southwest Wyoming where he now resides with his wife and two young boys. Aside from God and family, hunting and shooting have always played an important role in his life. His passion is long range shooting and anything related, from helping in his dad's custom rifle shop, to hunting and reloading or just trigger time at the range.
