New Contest Starting Now! This Target Haunts Me
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
I don't think you are sacrificing anything.
DOF and wind direction will be easier to capture directly on the 5700 but if you don't mind transferring that over NBD.
The Kestrel is a bit clunky to use at first but once you get a handle on it, it's easy.
I would say that is mostly anecdotal.
Probably saw less vertical in one or two instances and just rolled with it.
I've got both and I will say the ski can pivot to follow the angle of the ground where the sled feet don't.
This is for NF match if anyone is confused.
For the Kestrel make sure you have good data on your rifle, after that let it collect enviro's. Take a good target heading, tell it the distance and then wind capture into the wind.
If you shoot every round at the match it's 150 rounds, plus what...
I don't shoot a 50 so I don't deal with that price issue. But if I was trying to make 50-100 rounds of the best ammo to win a match I might.
You can always put them in practice ammo or stuff you are gonna shoot at short range, there shouldn't be a ton.
245 Bergers were nearly impossible to get for a long while there, Hornady's stayed available the whole time. I stocked up on A-tips at that time.
I'll prob go back to Bergers after if they are available.
If you really wanna try them I’d just wait and get a slower barrel next time. I shoot a smaller 375 and run around 2850 anyways so I might try them but I’ll prob still favour A-tips or Lazers
Bullet RPM = MV X 720/Twist Rate
You are looking 248k RPM. Should be safe but you could contact Hornady about the safe RPM of that bullets the a tips seem to blow up around 267 when the barrel gets a bit dirty.
