“ballistics”

Kestrel Ballistics has announced the release of the KestrelMet 6000 Food Plot Weather station—a rugged, reliable monitoring solution that helps hunters more effectively grow and maintain a thriving food plot.

Pard's TD32 boasts the company's latest technological innovations. Its Dual Spectra Imaging technology combines long-distance thermal detection, high-definition night vision, a ballistics calculator, and a Laser Rangefinder into a single unit.

This classic cartridge is a perfect fit for most handgun hunters. Observant hunters will immediately recognize that the .41 Magnum offers notably better external and terminal ballistics than the .357, yet is slightly more shooter-friendly than the .44.

While there may be a shine on some of the modern releases in the 6.5mm bore diameter, the 6.5x55 Swedish still makes a sound choice for the practical hunter due to its combination of terminal ballistics, flat trajectory and minimal recoil.

Revic Optics, a division of Gunwerks, has released the Radikl RS25b smart scope with integrated ballistics. The 2nd generation, 4-25x50mm smart scope boasts the Revic ballistic engine that computes elevation and windage solutions, including calculations for aerodynamic jump, spin drift, and earth-based effects.

The Hornady .300 PRC is part of a paradigm shift in centerfire-cartridge design, one brought about by an increasingly improved understanding of internal and external ballistics, and the use of Doppler radar. As a .30-caliber magnum it is not only capable of killing big game, but also other .30-caliber magnums.

Nosler has taken the venerable .270 caliber to a new level with the introduction of the 27 Nosler. Conceived as a 21st century upgrade, the new cartridge delivers previously unobtainable downrange ballistics by pairing the ultimate combination of case capacity with modern long-for-caliber bullets.

Leica refers to its brand-new laser rangefinder, the Rangemaster CRF 2800.com, as “ballistics unleashed.” The lightweight, compact design is easy to handle, and offers versatile connectivity via the Leica Hunting app to deliver individual ballistic settings configured to your rifle/cartridge combination for comprehensive distance measurement across flat ground, uphill and downhill.

Shooters are drawn to rimfire cartridges primarily due to the per-shot costs being significantly less than those of comparable center-rifle rifle cartridges. However, their downfall is lackluster terminal ballistics—that is, until now. Winchester’s new economical .17 Winchester Super Magnum (WSM) cartridge defies convention, and in doing so handily becomes the highest-performance rimfire extant.
