Here are some key features of "pyBallistics":
· English Units and Calculations only
· Trajectory Calculations
· Static Bullet DB
· Manual Installation Planned Features for Next Release
· Ballistic Coefficient Calculator
· SQL based Bullet DB (sqlite)
· Print/Save functions Future
Requirements:
· Python
Installation:
1) Make sure that you have python >= 2.5 (pyballistics may run on python < 2.5 but this is untested)
