    Questions about applied ballistics app on android

    Just bought a 4500 NV BT and the android app. I've been playing with it a little and it seems pretty good. The BT link connects the app to the Kestrel and imports the atmospherics while constantly updating. There seems to be less than 1 sec lag time between the wind reading on the Kestrel and it...

    Target stands for steel.

    I don't have any conveyor belts, but one thing I haven't tried yet but have been thinking about is semi tire treads. They come off as thick rubber strips and they're laying all over as I drive down the highway. Just cut em to size and I think they would be good

    Does Sniper's Hide really need the constant flow of LE bashing?

    The ability to question and hold accountable the Government at all levels is a fundamental right and essential to American democracy...just don't do it here. Frank and others have made it clear that this website is about shooting and isn't the place to express your contempt for the American...

    AB android app + Kestrel or Kestrel w/AB

    Yeah, I don't know. It's a $300 difference and I only shoot a couple different bullets. I can buy the 208 a max custom drag curve and the 220 smk curve for $4 and I'm set with a better display. But, the convenience of one device and the lag time of the app..dunno?

    AB android app + Kestrel or Kestrel w/AB

    So, what I'm getting so far is that you can get a regular kestrel 4500 with blue tooth and sync it to your phone and it can continually update your wind/atmospherics to your phones display in the Applied Ballistics app. The only real difference is that with the AB Kestrel you get ALL the custom...

    AB android app + Kestrel or Kestrel w/AB

    Does the 4500NV AB/BT for $689 do anything better,different, etc. than if I was to purchase, for example, a 4500NV with BT for $399, then purchase the Applied Ballistics app for $30 and sync the Kestrel with my Android device? From what I understand, the Kestrel then populates the fields in the...

    I want to be a cop Where do i start? LEO replies greatly appreciated

    I don't know if its the same all over, but a lot of our new guys are hired out of the jail. Starting out as a CO is good experience, and you learn a lot about who the players are and how they operate. So, when you see the same assholes or types of assholes on the street as a new officer you...
