The Kestrel 5700 with Hornady 4DOF ballistic weather meter is a professional tool designed for long-range shooting, combining the capabilities of a precise environmental meter with an advanced ballistic calculator. It allows the shooter to quickly determine elevation hold and wind corrections, improving first-round hit probability even in demanding field conditions.
This model features the integrated Hornady 4DOF ballistic calculator, which computes trajectory solutions based on the bullet drag coefficient rather than a standard ballistic coefficient. This method provides more accurate calculations by accounting for projectile behavior in flight, including its mass, aerodynamic properties, and real-time environmental data. The system also considers aerodynamic jump caused by crosswinds and accurately calculates angled shots under varying conditions.
The device measures essential atmospheric and environmental factors in real time, helping deliver highly precise ballistic solutions. With its compact size, durable construction, and extensive measurement capabilities, the Kestrel 5700 is a dependable choice for precision shooters, hunters, instructors, and anyone involved in long-range marksmanship.
