So if you had to pick one, and have potentially "lesser" versions of other items, what direction would you go for something with Applied Ballistics? The Kestrel 5700, Garmin Foretrex 701, one of the LRF's? I'm trying to minimize needing too many tools, and DEFINITELY avoid needing a phone. I generally use a Dumbphone flip-phone, so if I can avoid that, I'd prefer it. But as I'm an active soldier with 3 kids and other responsibilities, budget is a principle factor. So I can only try to justify one "Pricey" tool. Thoughts?

I would pick the kestrel. And a lesser expensive rangefinder then save up for the terrapin.
If I went this direction, what is the best budget LRF out there? ELR isn't too big of a consideration, where I am able to shoot 1k meters is max range.
LOL Could I use the computer? I honestly hate smartphones, tbh. But that seems to be another vote for the KestrelWith any of them you will want a smart phone for setting profiles. Or have you kids do it on there phone
It would be the Kestrel or on of of the RF's for me
It can be done on a PC using the optional Kestrel USB to optical cable and the AB Loader software.
There are a bunch in the 350 range. Sig kilo 1k. A used bushnell CONX
I'm gonna start looking into it. Appreciate it.
It looks like good specs, but seems a tad beyond my budget, if I'm grabbing a Kestrel, too
I’ve personally only had Nikon and Leupold. I wouldn’t recommend Leupold on my experience. Lots of friends have sigs and vortex. Don’t know anything about bushnell, but they are making some good products compared to 15-20 years ago
