Replace your scope with an iPhone? That is now possible with the Inteliscope. This new product provides a rigid mount for an iPhone that attaches to your firearm’s Picatinny rail. A special software App allows the Inteliscope to be zeroed, with a variety of user-selectable reticles. Simply tap a button on the iPhone screen to switch reticles. You can even record video of your shooting session. The Inteliscope system costs $99.00, which includes rail mount, iPhone holder, and iOS App.

I don't think my iPhone would handle much recoil.

That's what I was thinking. Probably great for paintball or Airsoft......but I can't imagine recoil would be good on an iphone.  And if you bump it....wouldn't you have to resight it in again?  The theory behind the idea is good....but in actually it seems like a bad idea.

Iphones can handle being dropped on the ground.. I think recoil of a 223 won't be a problem.
