BALLISTIC & ENVIRONMENTAL
QUICK REFERENCE
Target Screen
Active – tells whether this target is currently active
TR – target range
DoF – direction of fire (relative to true north)
Ideg – inclination angle (negative means the target is
below the shooter)
Icos – inclination cosine (cosine of the inclination angle)
TS – target speed
TD – target direction of movement
WD – current wind direction (direction from which wind
is blowing, relative to DoF)
WS1 – typical current wind speed
WS2 – maximum current wind speed
Gun Screen
MV – muzzle velocity
BC – bullet ballistic coefficient
BW – bullet weight
BD – bullet diameter
ZR – zero range
BH – bore height
RT – rifling twist rate (distance in which bullet achieves
360 degrees of rotation)
RTd – rifling twist direction (right = clockwise from the
shooter's perspective)
Click – assigns an angular value to sight clicks
Environment Screen
Auto – controls whether values for temperature,
barometric pressure, and relative humidity are
obtained automatically (from the Kestrel's weather-
meter functions) or are manually set by the user.
Lat – allows the user to specify the latitude (north or

Dalt – density altitude (calculated from pressure,
Coriol – controls whether Coriolis corrections are
Wind – controls whether wind direction is controlled
