Kestrel or?

[goblbustr]

All right gents, trying to step up my game a bit and looking to buy a kestrel. First there are so many models the choice aint easy so which one would those of you with some experience buy and is there an alternative brand that would give me the same features without the huge price tag. I`ll hang up and listen. Thanks

4500AB or the new model 5700 with AB.

I am not rich.

I bought a 4500NV and a Leica 1600 range finder to use with my phone for the ballistic calculator.

The combination is not the highest technology available but it works fine for what I need.

Caldwell Cross Wind Pro, works very well. Costs under 100 bucks. If you're not getting one with built in ballistics then you don't need to burn lots of $$$

Second this. Mine works well. No regrets on the purchase.

Curious too.

It is not about being rich. It is about buying the best tool for the job, quality, not looking back, and having something that will last your lifetime. I wish every LRH has an opportunity to own an accurate rifle, an NXS, and a Kestrel with AB.

Ambient Weather WM-2 Handheld Weather Meter w/ Windspeed, Temperature, Wind Chill

$27. The lowest price I was able to find on a wind meter. It does not have atmospheric pressure, but I was able to build my own pressure sensor for a few bucks.

Or ambient weather has a model that has pressure for $57.
