ALL-IN-ONE Kestrel Sniper / Rifle / Ballistics Bundle - The for the Shooting PRO!
Includes everything needed to carry, operate, track and know whats going on as it happens!
"A 45° oblique wind gives a three-quarter value wind speed."
"A clump of grass dropped from three feet drifts 3 feet for every 10 MPH of wind speed."
"The air pressure decreases by one inch for each 1000 feet of elevation gained."
As a long-range or benchrest shooter, you probably know and use rules of thumb like these. You know that crosswind, air pressure, temperature and humidity all affect the ballistic coefficient and wind drift of your shot. But estimates and rules of thumb won't consistently yield a small group. Use a Kestrel 4500 to measure every environmental factor that impacts the accuracy of your shot. With its integrated digital compass and patented impeller, the 4500 measures wind speed and wind direction, and calculates crosswind and headwind with respect to the target. Plus it measures air pressure (actual and barometric), altitude, density altitude, temperature and relative humidity and logs up to 2000 sets of data automatically or manually. Serious shooters don't estimate — they use Kestrel. Just ask the US Olympic Biathlon Team — they use their Kestrels before every shot.
Bundled Package Includes the Following:
- Kestrel 4500 or 4500NV (Night Vision)
- Kestrel 4500 USB PC Computer Interface
- Kestrel 4500 NiteIze Belt Clip Case
- Kestrel 4500 Silva Polaris Compass
- Kestrel Portable Tripod
- Kestrel Vane Mount
For years our customers have been asking for wind direction along with wind speed. New for 2007, the Kestrel 4500 does just that with its built in digital compass. But it doesn't stop there. It also calculates crosswind and headwind/tailwind with reference to a user-set target heading, and stores the information along with all the other environmental readings in its 1400 data point memory. Pair the 4500 with the Kestrel Vane Mount and you have a data-logging weather station that sets up in seconds and rotates in the slightest of breezes. Did we mention that the whole kit is the ultimate in portability? It packs down into a 2 x 6 inch pouch and weighs under 8 ounces. The Kestrel 4500 is also available in the NV configuration.
