Kestrel 2700 Ballistics Weather Meter

The Kestrel 2700 Ballistics Weather Meter is a compact device designed to measure key environmental parameters. It is designed as a reliable tool for hitting the target from the first shot at long distances. The device provides information on such parameters as maximum, current and average wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, barometric pressure and altitude. For fine tuning, you must use a tablet or smartphone with the free Kestrel LiNK Ballistics app, available on the App Store and Google Play. The built-in ballistics calculator provides exceptionally accurate calculations, giving you ready-to-use data in distance and wind clicks, customized for your specific sight. Calculations take into account ballistic coefficients for different bullet types (G1/G7). Full customization for the selected ammunition and weapon makes it possible to significantly improve shooting accuracy. It is recommended for use at ranges up to 800 meters.

Compliance with strict military standards MIL-STD-810 ensures reliable operation even in extreme conditions. Full water protection allows the device to be used in heavy precipitation. The Kestrel 2700 Ballistics Weather Meter is positively buoyant and remains operational when submerged in water. Data is displayed on a large backlit LCD display. User reviews of the Kestrel 2700 Ballistics are extremely positive. Control is carried out with three buttons, which allows you to quickly obtain environmental data and accurate ballistic parameters to adjust shots at long and ultra-long ranges.

Functional features

• Kestrel LiNK Ballistics is a proprietary mobile app designed to be installed on iOS and Android mobile gadgets. With its help, you can download to the weather station all the necessary settings of the devices used: the profile of the rifle, sight, various ammunition. It should also be noted that you can take advantage of the ammunition data available in the extensive library.
• The built-in ballistic calculator provides accurate calculations of the bullet trajectory depending on the distance and weather factors. In the end, the weather station provides a ready-made solution for the specific sighting device used. Users have a choice of units: milliradians, real MOA, shooting MOA, number of clicks of the correction input drum.
• Calculation of mathematical model of flight trajectory is performed for two types of bullets G1/G7. In the first case, the standard Krupp bullet model with a flat cylindrical tail is used. For bullets with a tapered tail section, the G7 coefficient is used, which is considered more accurate. It should be noted that factors such as derivation and Coriolis effect are taken into account when calculating long-range shots. For the vast majority of shooting applications, mostly used for recreational shooting and hunting, using the basic G1 parameter is fine.
• Bluetooth module for cooperation with mobile devices provides stable connection and fast data transfer within 20 meters.
• Backlit LCD display provides good data visibility both in bright daylight and darkness.
• Rugged plastic housing with IP-67 dust and water resistance class will ensure stable operation in high humidity conditions, it can be used during intensive precipitation. The device has a positive buoyancy, will withstand a direct drop into the water. Compliance with the strict requirements of military standards MIL-STD-810 allows falling from a low height and impact on equipment, equipment, ammunition. Dimensions 122 x 42 x 18 mm, weight 65 g. The package includes a protective plastic cover.
• Power supply from a single CR2032 cell will ensure continuous operation of the device for 300 hours with the Bluetooth module turned off.
