kilo...i can do around 450yrds here at the house...i use 200 of that most of the time, hardly ever get under that...well unless my boy is shooting with me...we go down to 150...him and my grandson were out last fall and i had my grandson back at 200...he was doing really well...ahhhh, those young eyes,,lol
there are some places around here....farms...that im sure i could stretch out past 1000 but i havent asked....maybe this summer...but without a spotter it would be real hard...unless i have a really bid target so i could do my own spots or calls
dawg...i know exactly what you are saying about the flags...i have seen that exact thing you talked about-----the kestrel is like you said only good right where it is...at distance you have to make that call by what you see....wind ..mirage, in close 200 or so i dont really think about it to much unless it is really blowing...these 6.5 bullets seem pretty slippery and able to buck the wind pretty good
nick... i will be interested in what the guy has to say about your question...as for the kestrel ... i am pretty sure that it,,,if given good data will give you a relatively good elevation solution----- the wind however....even though the kestrel is giving you what it thinks or the algorithm or what ever it is doing may not be precise at distance....(it is probably pretty good where it is at) it is still a shooters call or his spotter for a wind input....and experience at making those wind calls only comes from doing it
also MY scope is a MOA scope....both turrets and reticle so i dont know if that really matters here just thought i would toss that out, but, i will say, i had NO idea there are two different mil numbers that need to be dealt with......how confusing that could be....kinda like having mil turrets and moa reticle or moa turrets and mill reticle......why in the world is that not standardized ...lol
this dang weather....jeees had another 5" of snow yesterday with a high of 12*...i am ready for spring i tell ya,,,heck 35 would be wonderful after the last 3 weeks
anyway ---- waiting to see what the response is from Masterpiece Arms
