Range · Shooting Tools

Dial with data, not guesswork.

A ballistic calculator, DOPE book, range cards, scope tracking, and load development — in the same app as your hunting maps. Included in the one subscription.

Quick answer

The Range tab in Baseline Maps is a complete shooter's toolkit: a ballistic calculator driven by per-rifle profiles, a digital DOPE book, printable range and target cards, scope-adjustment tracking with one-tap return-to-zero, handload development, and load-vs-load comparison. It ships in the standard $34.99/year subscription — no separate ballistics app to buy.

What's in the Range tab

Twelve tools. One profile. Zero guesswork.

01

Ballistic Calculator

Full trajectory solutions — drop, drift, and holdovers built from your rifle profile, not generic tables.

02

QuickCalc

A firing solution in seconds: pick a profile, set the distance, get the dial. Built for gloved hands and fading light.

03

Range Card

A printable, shareable reference card for your load — distances, dials, and holds you can tape to a stock or share with a partner.

04

Target Card

Dial data for specific ranged targets — set the distance once, keep the correction with the target.

05

DOPE Book

Record real field data — what the rifle actually did at distance, conditions included — and build the book every serious shooter keeps.

06

Scope Tracking

Track every turret adjustment with an AT ZERO / DIALED stamp and one-tap return-to-zero, so you always know where the scope sits.

07

Rifle Profiles

Store each rifle and load — muzzle velocity, ballistic coefficient, zero distance, scope height — and switch between them instantly.

08

Load Lab

Track handloads and chronograph data as you develop a load — charges, velocities, and notes in one place.

09

Ballistic Comparison

A/B two loads side by side with a plain verdict — which one drops less, drifts less, and carries more energy where you hunt.

10

Range Estimation

Estimate distance in the field using known target sizes when you don’t have a rangefinder in hand.

11

Weather Station

Current atmospherics for your position — the conditions half of an accurate solution.

12

Unit Converter

MOA, MRAD, inches, centimeters, yards, meters — every conversion a shooter reaches for, all on one screen.

How it fits together

Profile once. Solve everywhere.

  1. 01Build a rifle profile — velocity, BC, zero, scope height. Add as many rifles and loads as you own.
  2. 02Every tool reads that profile: QuickCalc for the fast dial, the range card for the printed backup, the comparison when you're choosing a load.
  3. 03Confirm at the range, log it in the DOPE book, and track the scope — so what you dial next season is what the rifle proved, not what a table promised.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does Baseline Maps have a ballistics calculator?
Yes. The Range tab includes a full ballistic calculator built on per-rifle profiles (velocity, ballistic coefficient, zero, scope height), a QuickCalc for fast firing solutions, and printable range cards — included in the standard subscription, not a separate purchase.
What is a DOPE book?
DOPE stands for "data on previous engagements" — a shooter’s log of what a rifle actually did at real distances in real conditions. Calculated tables predict; a DOPE book verifies. The Range tab includes a digital DOPE book for recording confirmed field data alongside your calculated solutions.
What is a range card in shooting?
A range card is a quick-reference table of dial-ups or holdovers for one rifle and load at set distances — the thing you tape to your stock or keep in a scope cap. Baseline Maps generates one from your rifle profile and lets you print or share it.
Can I track scope adjustments in the app?
Yes. Scope Tracking logs every turret adjustment, shows an AT ZERO or DIALED state at a glance, and returns to zero with one tap — so a dialed correction never follows you to the next shot by accident.
Is the Range tab an extra purchase?
No. Every Range tool ships in the standard Baseline Maps subscription — $34.99/year or $7.99/month with a 14-day free trial — alongside the hunting maps and fishing data. There are no add-ons or tiers.
