But shooters can\u2019t simply buy any Leupold optic, they must purchase (at retail locations or online shops) one of Leupold\u2019s Mark 5HD rifle scopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the uninitiated, the Kestrel is one of the most advanced, hand-held combination weather\/ballistic calculators on the market. It acts as a portable weather station, offers ballistic solutions based on a given round\u2019s ballistic coefficient, wind solutions and even cross-wind solutions. And the Kestrel 5700\u2019s price reflects this &#8211; around $500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thankfully, shooters can get their hands on one for free when they buy one of the new high quality Leupold scopes.
