Pros and cons of Army Sniper app for iPhone and iPad

Army Sniper app good for

this is quite educational. i trully enjoy it. Hope to see more like this one
After getting off COD4:MW2 I, being a slightly overweight 14 yearold have the same fantasy as all others, being a sniper... Very worth the buy :)
Ive been an Army Sniper for 4 years now, and im wrapping up my second tour in Iraq in 2 months. This is one heck of a handy app. As a sniper theres a lot to know, which means theres alot to forget, if you dont stay on top of you game certain things can slip your mind. This is a big hhelp. Especially when refreshing the new guys.
I absolutely love it. My dream is to become a sniper one day and this has helped me become a better marksman. And I will know alot before I even go to training.
Ive read most of it this would help me to become a marksman. I have a airsoft rifle ive gotten better with sniping only get if you like sniping
Im just picking up High Power Rifle again after 15 years using my NM M1A. This publication is an excellent tool for re-learning windage and ballistics. Also very interesting reading overall.

Some bad moments

I thought it was the game and its an actual book or reading material. Wasted money.
If I would have preferred to have been told to go back Benning, and do nothing but swamp guilly washes for 8 weeks, rather than going from an app I assumed was finally devolved to be kind of spotter or help me place rounds... Also, who sells a book as an app? Why didnt you sell it on iBooks?
