The Leica 3200.COM phone app (that is not paired with Kestrel 5700) calculates/exports drop solutions out to 1000 yards for stand-alone usage. My big question is whether or not the Leica 3200.COM corrects/adjusts these values based on measured atmospherics (pressure and temperature). It would be a huge plus for the Leica 3200.COM if they did, but I just don't know right now. The Sig KILO 3000BDX uses the AB Lite ballistics solutions out to 700 or 800 yards (I don't remember the exact distance) when used in stand alone mode. I have no experience with the Fury so can't say anything about them.

Thanks, and I get it. The problem for me is, is the Geovid worth the extra $1500 over the Fury, when they both do the same thing, except for the optical edge to Leica? Depends during the middle of the day probably not. In the early morning later afternoon it dam sure could be!

FYI.......Another thing I learned is that unless you pair your Geovid 3200 to a Kestrel, ballistic readouts/holds are limited to only 800 yds via the app. The Sig 3000 does the same thing, the Fury gives AB info as far as you can range. Or Garmin The next Gen Sig's correct that, they will be out shortly. They will also have the AB Elite onboard.

Do you know what else Sig upgraded? I had a Sig 3000 that was pretty avg optically, but had terrible quality control. The diopters would not stay put when set, there were gaps between them and the binocular body, and worst of all the laser aiming point was actually outside of the circle reticle. Laser was actually at 6:30 outside of the circle and Sig told me it was "within spec". I didn't agree so I sent them back. The laser was super fast and accurate though.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

They already fixed the Diopter problem. I believe the 10,000's will have better glass, imagining stabilizer, AB Elite, range and dope to 2500 and you'll be able to range multiple targets at one time then shoot in the order you ranged them.
