[QUOTE="stiff neck, post: 2521046, member: 13175"] It appears the [URL='https://www.sigsauer.com/kilo5k.html']Sig KILO5K[/URL] ($580 at CameraLand, $650 msrp) by itself offers about everything a hunter needs out to 800 yards. Without needing a Kestrel or phone app. Am I missing something? There seems to be very few reviews about the KILO5K. Ranging capability 2000-2500 yards 7x magnification Onboard temp/pressure Applied Ballistics "ultralight" calculator to 800 yards Angle compensation Bluetooth compatability with Kestrel/smart devices Free App to configure 25 bullets and 8 rifle profiles BaseMap App compatability for dropping pins via laser The Kilo5k as a standalone unit seems perfect for "most" western hunting without the need for a second Kestrel type device. Like sub-600 yards, the onboard AB software and atmospherics will easily handle that. Or, sync a Kestrel or ballistic app to calculate 800+ yards if you need/want to for actual 800+ "long range".
