    Kestrel wind meter

    Hi all, where’s the cheapest place to get a Kestrel 5700 Elite?
    The exchange rate from the USA is too much and not worth it. I know Dead Eye Dicks have them but is there anywhere else?

    If I lost mine I would buy another tommorow I rate them that highly

    Cheers @Andyamimal31 I bit the bullet bullet and got one. I look forward to running it on some steel later on in the week.

    Not cheap 1200 they sold 4 that week, the wife thought I bought another rifle and she knew I’ve been after one for a while as my other mates are using the old 4500 model.

    1200 sounds like good value given the price of the lesser Sportsman model @1k in NZ, Anyway I've ordered from the US direct and will take my chances at customs, even with GST, it should be a few hundred less $ than buying here. The exchange rate is pretty good just now.
