Best price and in stock! - Kestrel 5700 Elite Weather Meter with Applied Ballistics with LiNK

I'm really excited to put this to use. Hoping for my first 1,000 yard shot soon, wanted the blaze orange so I don't lose it. Setup was decent, the bullet selection is pretty awesome just to select and put in your cartridge profile. Hopefully get some muzzle velocities soon to plug that in and should be ready to rock n' roll. I'm not super tech savvy so I just followed the instructions. Had to look up a couple things on kestrel website just so I didn't mess something up. I wasn't used to a couple of the terminology, but clicking on the abbreviations on the kestrel gives the description of what they're asking for. I about went cross eyed trying to get the measurement for the mid point in the bolt to the middle of the windage adjustment know. Just take you time setting it up, I wouldn't rush the process. The link to the phone app is cool too. It looks like you can save and transfer information from the app to the kestrel, and vice-versa, I assume so you can back up your data. I think this will be an extremely valuable tool in my future. Might also invest in a hard case, need to make sure it lasts a long long time. It is fascinating technology especially since I'm a pencil and paper person. So I imagine I'll be getting things figured out and have paper copies as back-ups. Instructions are pretty adamant about how to hold it, I don't have it in front of me right now, but I think it does say let it sit for 15 minutes to stabilize before use after turning it on. Little stuff like that sounds like if you're not following directions can drastically alter readings. I may be one of the last of the dinosaurs shooting 308 or 7.62x54r and not a 6.5 creed, but I am going to 1,000 yards. I also wanted to add, the amount of cartridge profiles is staggering, 30 profiles I believe. Which is fantastic since I want to use different bullet weights. This is such an interesting tool, kestrel seems to be well made and seems to be very user friendly.
