The KILO 5K can range reflective targets up to 5,000 yards, trees up to 2,500 yards, and deer up to 2,000 yards. In an industry first, the rangefinder allows users to range a tree, rock, or deer and then instantly drop waypoints into the BaseMap app to help navigation to that target. Integrated BDX technology provides ballistic solutions out to 800 yards with Applied Ballistics Ultralite. It will also sync with external devices featuring Applied Ballistics Elite.
The rangefinder’s monocular features the LightWave DSP Gen II engine with multiple target modes: Extended Range (XR) for distant targets, Fog (to cut through fog, rain, and snow), and First, Best, and Last target modes. The range-finder incorporates a vivid, red segmented OLED display that provides range to target, elevation holdover, and wind holds.
The rangefinder also works with BaseMap to provide remote waypoints on ranged targets and can be fully configured with the Sig Sauer BDX App. (BaseMap is an industry-leading mobile and desktop mapping application that provides and outdoorsmen the tools needed to plan, navigate, and share outdoor adventures with easy to use, cutting-edge technology like 3D maps, Smart Markers, unlimited offline mapping, and live location sharing.
