Chairgun App For Mac

  • Previously I used Chairgun to calculate the ballistic coefficient using near & far distances. I just upgraded my Macbook from OSX to OSHS & Chairgun won't open. A pop-up window appears telling me I need to get Legacy Java 6. I proceeded to download the newest version of Chairgun from Hawkes website. Tried to install it & got the same response.

  • Needs Updated Like Chairgun Pro 4 The new Chairgun 4 for Mac OS (NOT this app.but rather the mother program for your computer) was upgraded recently with some very welcome additions that now allow the distance grading of a full reticle (not just the bottom half) as well as enough resolution on the axes of the graphs to know what holdover to use for a fine range of distances.
  • New version is out and Mac users can rejoice: http://www.deben.com/chairgun-pro.html.

At the end of 2018 we are ending support for our Chairgun and X-Act software. These desktop and smartphone apps will no longer be updated or supported by Hawke. They may continue to work for sometime, but as operating systems are updated we cannot guarantee this. Legacy versions of our software for Windows and MacOS are available below. I move the target to 10m – 15 – 20 – 25 etc and use the Chairgun app data to see if I POI’s/holdover/holdunder is correct by shooting the target at these distances. It’s usually right. (close enough for 10-45m pest control. Groups are usually well under a 5p piece. Chairgun is only as good as the data you enter.
