Sig Kilo 2400 ABS Ballistic Calibration

[Georgedubya]

Hey all, has anyone had an issue with their KILO2400ABS ballistic calibration? Mine throws out some crazy numbers no matter which gun profile I’m using. Here’s an example. Pretty sure the number in the attached is NOT the MV on my 6.5 Grendel!! Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks.

For everyone's reference, I spoke with Sig about this. They were extremely responsive. The answer essentially was that drop should be input in inches, which is a bit counter intuitive and doesn't seem (at least to me) to mesh with the manual (See pages 52-53 https://www.sigsauer.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/SIG-KILO2400ABS-Manual.pdf). I've followed up.

And there’s no setting to change that? Other than that how do you like it? I’ve been looking at getting one but have heard the temperature sensor can take up to a half hour to acclimate? Have you experienced this at all?

There’s apparently no setting.

all this aside, its a fantastic rangefinder.It isgenerally spot on with the calcs when using the AB customdrag models. I find myself using my kestrel more though, and would probably get one of the new Leica rangefinders that communicates with a kestrel if I could do it again now. Still,very few complains about the kilo

Yeah I’m leaning more and more towards the sig but the .com leicas with a kestrel seem like a good option too. I’m not sure how much I would like the fact of having two pieces of gear to do one job though.

Kestrel is fantastic of course. Can think of the kilo as a backup.

The Sig 2400 BDX talks with the Kestrel/Garmin. Its what I run. Gives you AB lite as a backup to the Kestrel.

It is fast and easy solution.

Yea I was going to say don't the sig link with kestrel? Haven't tried that but i'll be getting a kestrel elite to link with my kilo3000.
