    Hornady Kestrel 5700 Ballistic Weather Meter 4 DOF Official Support Thread

    There have been a few questions about differences in the 4DOF app and the Hornady Kestrel 4DOF meter. This should answer most of them. First off, The Hornady app and the Kestrel where not designed concurrently. The app predated the Kestrel by many years and as such was built in a different...

    Starbuck - Sorry about that. I am his supervisor and have talked with him about tone when replying to customers. I don't feel like he was blaming you but trying to explain the delay and why it went to voicemail. We certainly would like to answer every call live but it is not always possible...

    Kestrel connection problem with Terrapin X

    If you have connection problems and have not increased your Kestrel data logging rate to 2 seconds, try this, if this works keep it handy as the logging rate reverts to 5 seconds with a Kestrel fw update. https://kestrelballistics.com/mwdownloads/download/link/id/442/

    I only use a Kestrel and do not have the AB App., so I can't answer that question. AB might be able to, but both the Kestrel and App need to be trued to your rifle for accuracy. Once trued the solutions should be the same.

    There is only 1 bullet library and that is managed by Applied Ballistics. When you open the Kestrel app it connects to the AB library and checks if any new bullets have been added and if yes, asks if you want to download them.

    I was wrong, fw 1.44 had no ballistic changes, 1.45 did fix some profile transfer issues. Upgrade would be beneficial.

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    First, there are no ballistic changes between 1.43 and 1.45, the changes impact non-ballistic meters, so upgrade is not required. Secondly, make sure you PIN is turned off.

    YES, set up separate profiles and us the ZH and ZO to indicate the variance from dead center for the two not zeroed dead center - high and left hits are + number entries and low or right hits are - number entries.

    If in the weather mode you are using magnetic the ballistic calculation uses magnetic. If you change it to True the ballistic formula uses True.

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    Whether using True North with a declination or Magnetic North, the relationship between the DOF and WD will be the same as it is relative. Really the only issue you would have with using Magnetic is with Coriolis effects being slightly off. For example at 1000 yards, if you think you are...

    Go to Main Menu and select Weather mode and press enter. Use up or down until you see Direction on the screen and press center button. Change to True North and VAR will appear and you can enter the value here.
