Mind blown. I'm gonna have to listen to that about 12 more times

Thanks for the video. Great explaination, helped me understand how to use/interpret the DSF. Also zeroing your rifle, You really should use the "zero offset" to punch in that split-click. i.e how many millimeters away You are from an absolute perfect zero. Personally I use the Foretrex 701, a fantastic tool!

Necessity of Truing, this variation in calculation could also be caused by a change in ambient light at the 100yd zero and then actual target at say 1150yds is different illumination of target, cloud shadow, later in the day etc.

Good info. I wish i had a kestrel to test this stuff. I was shooting this year and found my bullet hitting high at sub sonic ranges so i would have to bring BC up the further into subsonic. And the further i shot in supersonic I would have to decrease BC. Very good info, wish i had a kestrel, so i wouldn't have to memorize or guess my BC at a certain distance.

Before AB option of the DSF, I use to use several g1 or g7 bc’s to be on throughout sson, transs and subs regions. I appreciate all of the time and effort you guys have put into the Applied Ballistics systems!!!!!! I mainly shoot two rifle systems and one of them, even with every new barrel that I install, the poi is always a little low nearing the end of transonic, unlike any other rifle system that I’ve dealt with. I often wonder if it’s possibly an axial alignment issue in this certain rifle. This really isn’t a problem but it just takes a few more rounds down range to true the ballistics to be absolutely true. I appreciate the video and I’m always looking forward to the next one.

Hi WV Here is what our in house experts say - The real value of DSF is the ability to fine-tune the Kestrel for these long distance shots. The DSF allows 6 different distances to be entered and used for the fine-tuning. You always want to enter them from the shortest distances to the longest distance, otherwise, you would overwrite the longer distances. You could do a DSF at the exact distance where you have the problem and the Kestrel would use that information to customize its results to your rifle. If you continue to have a problem, Kestrel has support staff to help you with this issue. Call in and get one of the staff members to walk you through it. Regards - The Kestrel Team

Kestrel Weather Meters Man, I really appreciate you replying to my comment, I’ll try your advice first, then I’ll give them a call if I don’t have any luck. Again, thanks so so very much!!!!

getting into long range 22 shooting out past 400 yards. Would love to get your input on how to make my kestrel work for that. Starting my bullets subsonic just fyi

Basically 6 drop points are available. I would say to match your dope as good as possible with the Kestrel and then start calibrating the DSF where the Kestrel's holds no longer are accurate. This could very well be at 100yd already but I see problems opening at 200yds. From there on add DSF points every 100 yds or when the trajectory starts to wonder again. I have only 5700 but planning an elite upgrade when I get it back from repair.

Is DSF truing necessary if your MV is trued and you are using AB custom drag models?

Hi Kameron Since there are minor differences in everyone's setup it still may be necessary but only if you are consistently missing at longer ranges. You shouldn't have to tweak it too much with a custom curve though. -The Kestrel Team

I try to watch the video and I can’t the audio quality is pretty bad

Hello Unfortunately these are pre-recorded and due to an audio failure this is the best we have. May we suggest you turn up the volume just a tad for these because the content is definitely worth it! Meanwhile we are trying to improve our audio/visual quality with our recently shot footage. Thanks for watching. The Kestrel Team

I'm not going to lie - the chin growth threw me off, and it went downhill from there.
