    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    There’s really not that much input. I don’t get why people act like it’s as complicated as doing your taxes. The Kestrel Link Ballistic app lays it all out in a convenient easy to see and read format.

    Rifle Scopes New S and B reticle

    Yes and you’d restart that 20 year warranty. Selling is a much better economical option. Oddly switching to a Horus ret is $900.00 according to the email I got a few days ago. I’m not entirely sure why the GR2ID carries a high premium. Much like NF apraoch of not offering their new ret for...

    300 PRC update

    I just hope the 300PRC can handle the 245gr Berger’s when they ever get released.

    15fps MV error on top of poor reloading or factory ammo, shows at extended range. Now add in a scope that has 1% error or worse. Now let’s add someone inexperienced who thinks truing solves everything but they turned off SD & CE. Good luck shooting at a different location with that one...

    Bino / Range Finder

    I can’t recommend any Rangefinding binos. I’m curuous how well the new ranging binos will be but I’m far from an expert. I personally think asking a rangefinder to range 3k yds is asking a lot. Can some low priced handhelds do it? Yes. Is their accuracy within what’s acceptable for making...

    Bino / Range Finder

    That’s asking for a lot. The laser on the Geovid is underpowered and the beam divergence is horrible in my opinion.

    CF Barrels for ELR

    My favorite part of discussion is when people don’t actually have experience with said product. Like all the people getting hyped for the new products at SHOT. Giving people advice to buy said new products that’s never been tested.

    CF Barrels for ELR

    Your barrels are essentially a heavy barrel wrapped with carbon. I like that idea. I think it’s interesting. I don’t think the market would care for it. How much does a barrel blank run?

    Rifle Scopes New S and B reticle

    I feel like my dumb ass would accidentally hold under 2mils. My eyes naturally want to do that by just looking at it.

    300 PRC update

    Here are a couple reasons: increase BC/reduced drag and better trajectory predictability in the transonic zone with increased SG. All that comes at a cost though...

    CF Barrels for ELR

    Not sure if you can read but I did put that AB was interested in what would happen with a larger carbon contour. They like testing things and I’m willing to bet they’d test those said barrels. I’m not sure they care what amount of water will hold with you. Who are you again.

    Kestrel 5700 elite V1.23 applying waaay too much spin drift?

    I like when posters come to their own conclusion and avoid bad advice. I found this same issue when I used the auto bullet length on AB Analitics so I always double check bullet length.

    CF Barrels for ELR

    Applied Ballistics did some research on various profiled steel barrels, SJB, and carbon barrels. (I’m not going to get into the details and caveats and turn this post into a novel.). What they found and what I interpreted was that carbon lended no advantage other than weight saving. Carbon...

    Suppressors Help pick a suppressor. Omega vs Resonator vs Other?

    Has the people suggesting the Nomad actually used it AND owned it for a reasonable amount of time to give a valid opinion?

    New Vortex Fury HD LRF Binos

    Wonder what wavelength and wattage the laser is pushing. Read the manual and it’s a class1 but no other details.
