## Description

desertcart.com : Kestrel 5700 Ballistics Weather Meter | With Bluetooth LiNK : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Must have! - Absolutely amazing tool for the range or field. Takes the guess work out and teaches you holdovers at the same time. Extremely easy to setup, take it out of the box, install the app and ready to shoot in no time. Whether you’re hunting or at the range, this will save you tons of guess work and money on ammo. Must have for any range bag. I wish I would have bought one years ago.
Review: Great for distance shooters - Had trouble hitting targets 300 to 1000 yards. First time I used this ballistic calculator, hitting targets up to 1200 yds. Just make sure you input correct info and take environmental readings before you start. Like the way it pairs to my phone. Easy to input info. Love it, well worth the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: So, does this unit have applied ballistics or not? Someone who asked this question received one no and two yes as answers.**
A: Yes, this unit has a "scaled" back version of the Applied Ballistics calculator.  It does not offer range card, multi-target or access to Litz's custom drag curves.  This model also only holds 3 profiles on the Kestrel opposed to the 30 on the elite.

**Q: Does this device require the use of a phone/tablet/other device after the first time inputting load data?**
A: It will require those for software updates but you don't need them for updating load data. However it does make it much easier to do it by using a phone or tablet.

**Q: Good afternoon.  Will I be able to get this weather station in Germany from America without any problems?  Will there be any problems with customs?  T**
A: I don’t think there would be any ITAR restrictions, but who knows these days . I would contact Kestrel or just order one and see what happens .

**Q: Can you update this with applied ballistics**
A: It will communicate w/AB and talk back and forth between handheld, tablet or laptop.  There also is a heads-up dope card that takes data from the Kestrel and puts it on a screen attached to your rifle (or artillery piece if that's your thing).  You can upgrade the 5700 to Elite, which has expanded features.  Extremely powerful tool.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you're doing long range shooting, get one.
*by D***N on October 12, 2025*

This thing is way more capable than myself, and has way more features than I understand. That being said, the little I have figured out how to use has been super useful for not just myself but making hasty profiles to get friends in the ballpark out to 900 yards.
