The Vortex ACE Ballistic Weather Meter is a compact, field-ready tool built for shooters and hunters who need accurate, real-time environmental data and ballistic solutions in one rugged, easy-to-use device. Simply put — this thing is freaking awesome.
Proudly made in the USA, the ACE combines live weather sensing, an integrated ballistic solver, and a large, intuitive display into a single handheld unit designed for real-world use. If you’re looking for just a wind meter, or a full-blown ballistic solution backed by an impeccable warranty, this is the unit.
Live Wind & Weather Data
The ACE captures real-time atmospheric and environmental conditions using an on-board compass, wind meter, and exposed sensors for:
-
Temperature
-
Barometric pressure
-
Humidity
-
Wind speed and direction
This live data feeds directly into ballistic calculations, giving you solutions based on actual conditions — not estimates.
Convenient On-Screen Ballistic Solutions
Wind holds and elevation corrections are displayed clearly on a large, easy-to-read screen, allowing fast reference without menu diving or reliance on a phone.
Intuitive, Familiar Interface
The large display and simple navigation make the ACE easy to learn and quick to use, even under field stress.

App Integration Tip
If your phone or ballistic app is not fully updated, you may experience Bluetooth device pages not refreshing properly—particularly on newer iPhones.
Solution:
Uninstall the GeoBallistics app and reinstall the latest version. This resolved all Bluetooth and syncing issues encountered during testing.
We’ve been extremely impressed with the performance, usability, and flexibility of the ACE, and it has quickly become a staple in our kit. More videos and field content coming soon.
