Good honest review Rick 👍 . We appreciate it . This Vortex Fury 5000 looks like a very good range finder .
Nice 4RNR Rick! . . . Oh, and the Fury is cool too . . . and the Kestrel . . . Jesus man, you and Ray have serious toys.
That was some good info...
Assuming that you have you ballistic data trued up in the kestrel, can you true ballistic data for your specific shooting platform in the Fury’s? Could that be possible point of the discrepancy between the two?
Did you also input the wind on the fury? I saw that you had input an 11:30 wind @ 4mph. Which could explain the higher elevation on the kestrel.
Great video Rick . That’s a very nice set up on the vortex binos. Is there a way you can adjust the binos like you can a kestrel? As far as the dfs
It gIves you a couple spots to tweak stuff
One thing I have noticed with the 5000 ABs is it will give very likely give you a 0.0 hold if you range past supersonic. It has happened when I took my 6.5CM to 1785 and also while at Steel Safari at 1475. My Steel Safari load was only leaving at 2633.
Good to know I haven’t stretched it out that far yet.
@@IY6C They served me very well at Steel Safari, but the calculation is a little slow. If you link them to the kestrel supposedly the binocs will calculate based on the profile selected in them and the kestrel will use the distance, shot angle and direction to calculate based on the profile in it. The Binocs will use the weather data from the kestrel for its calculations as they are more accurate than the built in sensors. So two rifles one range. I thought that might be useful at Team Safari. I wonder if the kerstal will produce results faster than the binocs.
Just missed your chat Rick I had to cut grass it finally dried enough
Hi Hi David thanks so good to have you a happy day to
Hey, Womfat just received a Vudoo 360! 👍🇺🇸 #22aday
Dammmm, missed it
Great video Mr. R and yes stick to the RTFM method when getting to know a new gadget, after that you could, depending on your knowledge, get more in to the SWAG method (RTFM = Read The Fu..ing Manual VS, Scientific Wild Ass Guess) ;) Keep up your great work Sir.
What kinda Mount do you use on ur tripod with that quick move lever
It’s made by really right stuff
If there both running the AB software and all the parameters have been input the same, my question is why are they different?
One reason is you shouldn't assume the inputs are the same. He said he locked the Kestrel, but the Vortex is updating the weather inputs, so if that is true, it could contribute to the differences. You would have to test them both locked with their respective weather readings to find out.
I do t know for sure yet bu guessing Dino may be correct.
What da hell. I missed it
This is about 2 years old, how has everything been working?
Still works great use them almost every weekend
@@IY6C thanks
I have a Sig Sauer Kilo 3000 BDX bino-range finder, it connects right to my kestrel which also connects to the kestrel HUD on my gun. Literally point at the target and I have a solution shown on my rifle. The Vortex seems way too complicated. The difference in solution between the two is based on environmentals because its the same AB software. I guess If you want to ditch the kestrel all together, it is a good solution since a kestrel and the Kilo 3000 BDX combined cost the same. I can see for hunting how it could be great - only one piece of equipment. I personally like the kestrel because its easy to use as a calculator as well - especially if you have some strange stuff going on with wind and such.
Yes love my Kestrel as well. I don’t see it being more complicated just a new device to learn. I have a HUD also but don’t seem to use it for very much.
@@IY6C Yeah - you are right - I played with the Fury - the glass is awesome but since I like my solution and didn't want to pay so much for a new one, I probably shut my mind off. I started using the range card feature on the Kestrel and then onto the HUD - its not that its so much better than writing it down, it just made me focus a little extra when ranging and thinking about a stage. However if it broke, I dont think I would be terribly upset. If my kestrel did, thats a different story. Great review as always though!
@@sf2189 thanks I appreciate the comments
I realize the ballistics are better in the sig kilo but have you looked through the zeiss rf or geovid? I am not interested in a step down in bino optics. Just like mine too much. I'd bet a used zeiss or geovid would only be a few 100 more
As a mater of fact after getting a pair of Zeiss Conquest HDs - it was hard to look through the Kilos. I got rid of them and got a Terrapin X which is awesome and gives more info to my Kestrel.
So a year later what are your thoughts on the fury 5000? Thanks Travis
I use them every match to confirm distances. I like them
@Isyour6covered® did the ballistic portion prove to not match your kestrel? I ordered a pair yesterday instead of a kestrel/ kilo3000 combo, then I saw your video and cringed. I was hoping for a one divice does it all for prs22.
@Isyour6covered® i am kind of concerned the vortex software may not allow for bullet drop after watching some other vids. Although when i spoke to vortex they assured me it is the same elite software found in kestrel elite... thanks
@@tarasowell8191 it has same applied program but you will need to make sure to give it great info in your fury app on phone for it to give you good data.
I don't understand why everyone is so hung up on a Kestrel. The wind measurements are only good for the current position of the measuring tool and does not tell you the wind speed 1000/2000 yards down range. The only way to do this is the old school way of learning to read the mirage using a spotting scope. Its not perfect but there is no way of knowing whats going on down range with a Kestrel.
I think this replaces the kestrel. But poeple are afraid to change.
1000 yards will make the difference in humidity and heat would make a difference,,,, and that's not even including wind
But they are both using the same software if everything equal they should be the same. So your input in your furry is has to be different.
You said 326 on the Fury and then punched 346 into the Kestrel.
I get it you think the kestrel is absolute accurate.
I have to believe it’s what I have. Not always perfect but a way better guess then I can come with. Paper is king but it sure is nice just turning it on a boom you got information.
