Kestrel 5700 Ballistics Weather Meter with Hornady 4DOF LiNK

1. Hornady 4DOF Ballistics Engine: Unlike traditional ballistic solvers, the Hornady 4DOF (Degrees of Freedom) engine accounts for bullet drag more accurately, utilizing bullet drag coefficients rather than ballistic coefficients, which leads to superior accuracy, especially at extreme long ranges. This advanced computational method provides precise firing solutions for hunters and precision shooters.

2. Full Environmental Sensing: The 5700 LiNK captures all critical atmospheric data, including wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. This comprehensive data allows the meter to calculate an accurate density altitude, which is crucial for ballistic calculations and ensures optimal shot placement.

3. LiNK Bluetooth Connectivity: Equipped with Kestrel LiNK Bluetooth Smart technology, this meter allows seamless wireless communication with your smartphone or tablet. Users can easily update firmware, download logged data, and manage custom bullet profiles using the Kestrel LiNK app, streamlining workflow for shooters in the field.

4. Rugged, Waterproof Design: Built to withstand the toughest conditions, the Kestrel 5700 is fully waterproof (IP67 submersible up to 1 meter for 30 minutes) and dustproof. Its durable construction is also MIL-STD-810G drop-tested, making it an indispensable tool for tactical operations, competitive shooting, and demanding hunting expeditions where reliability is paramount.

ABOUT THE KESTREL 5700 BALLISTICS WEATHER METER WITH HORNADY 4DOF LINK

The Kestrel 5700 Ballistics Weather Meter with Hornady 4DOF LiNK distinguishes itself by integrating the highly advanced Hornady 4DOF ballistics solver directly into a compact weather meter. This unique combination offers hunters, tactical operators, and long-range sport shooters an unparalleled tool for achieving extreme accuracy. Unlike many other ballistics calculators, the 4DOF engine predicts bullet trajectory with superior precision, especially at extended ranges, by utilizing detailed bullet drag profiles rather than simplified ballistic coefficients. This robust device captures critical environmental data, including wind speed, temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure, providing real-time, actionable insights for precise shot placement. Its durable construction featuring rugged materials makes it waterproof, dustproof, and drop-tested, ensuring reliable performance in challenging outdoor environments. The Kestrel 5700 is designed for individuals who demand meticulous data and unwavering reliability in their pursuit of accuracy.
