Rifle Target: Rifle Shooting Database v2.5 is a consolidation release, building upon the base of v2.0 while providing significant usabiity and speed improvements. Particular changes include: 

• Free upgrade for existing users
• New trial period: if you trialled Rifle Target 2.0, trial version 2.5 for another 30 days
• Full Windows Vista Support
  • Run Rifle Target as a normal user under Windows Vista. File permissions are correctly set and auto folder redirection will not occur.
  • Uses Windows Vista visual styles
  • New, high resolution product icons
• Vastly improved database performance
  • New in-memory database system - remove file read/write performance penalties that occurred for every record
• Re-written target drawing module
  • No flickering on resize
  • Smooth, anti-aliased, full resolution targets
  • 'Nicer' set of shot plot colours
• Better handling of differing scoring methodologies:
  • Supports disciplines that use half-point scoring, or any values outside of 1-10, 'V' and 'X'
  • A score can now consists of a major and minor component (each a floating point number) and a display (any character or string)
• Improved and corrected statistical display:
  • New (correct) covering circle algorithm. Cover Circle displayed directly on the target.
  • Correct calculation of best/worst shooter/range/form (calculates mean of all records of each type). Version 2.0 merely picked the absolute best/worst
  • Statistic calculation now only uses complete records to generate statistics - prevents statistical anomalies that may appear when dealing with partially completed records.
  • Statistic generation improvement improved dramatically as a result of new database system
  • Graphical statistics: window resizable to allow better display of statistics
  • Graphical statistics: calculated on the correct range for each record (Version 2.0 normalises onto a single range, producing anomalous results)
  • Shooter plot: improved performance (in line with new database system) and correct display of the Cover Circle (in line with new covering circle algorithm)
