Profiles highlight in gray when selected, making it easy to see which one you\u2019re editing.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_How_do_I_measure_scope_height_correctly\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">4)<\/span> How do I measure scope height correctly?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>The app includes a built\u2011in ruler tool.

Once your rifle is zeroed and your velocity is entered from a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tract-optics.co.za\/videosview\/custom-engraved-elevation-turrets\/\">chronograph<\/a>, lock the zero angle. If your velocity changes\u2014due to barrel speed\u2011up or new ammo\u2014you must unlock and relock it.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Why_are_my_ballistic_solutions_off_after_truing_my_BC\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">6)<\/span> Why are my ballistic solutions off after truing my BC?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>This almost always comes down to user error. The most common causes are:<\/p><ul><li>Your zero shifted.<\/li><li>Your velocity changed.<\/li><li>You switched ammo lots without re\u2011velocitying. Fixing zero and velocity, then unlocking and relocking Zero Scope Angle, resolves the issue nearly every time.<\/li><\/ul><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_How_does_PRS_mode_work\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">7)<\/span> How does PRS mode work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>PRS mode allows you to build stages with up to six targets. You can add targets, reorder them, and create multiple stages. If the numbers appear jumbled, turn off bold text and adjust your phone\u2019s text size in display settings.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Can_the_app_connect_to_external_devices\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">8)<\/span> Can the app connect to external devices?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>Yes. Eagle Ballistics connects to rangefinders, Kestrels, WeatherFlow meters, and other Bluetooth devices. When paired with a wind meter, the app can average wind speed automatically.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_How_do_I_back_up_my_gun_profiles\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">9)<\/span> How do I back up my gun profiles?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>Inside the gun\u2011profile folder, tap the grid icon. You can email your profiles, text them, or save a QR code containing all your rifles. This protects your data if your phone is lost or damaged.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_What_does_the_HUD_show\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #f25c10\">10)<\/span> What does the HUD show?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>The HUD displays your live ballistic solution, including elevation, wind holds, mover leads, max ordinate, time of flight, retained velocity, and more.
