Overview
A 7x25mm laser rangefinder monocular from Sig Sauer rated to a 5,000 yard maximum reflective range, built for long-range hunters and shooters who want onboard ballistics and Bluetooth links to external devices.
The KILO5K carries Applied Ballistics Ultralite onboard along with environmental sensors, and it supports BDX External connections to devices like Kestrel and Garmin units for combined wind and ballistic data. Its OLED display brightness adjusts automatically between bright sunlight and low-light dawn or dusk conditions, which several buyers specifically credited for keeping targets visible without blowing out the display.
- 5,000 yard maximum reflective range, 7x25mm optics
- Gen II LightWave DSP with Extended Range and Fog modes
- First, Best and Last target selection
- SpectraCoat anti-reflection lens coatings
Who it's for
Suits hunters and long-range shooters who already run a Kestrel or Garmin BDX-compatible device and want a rangefinder that talks to it directly. Less suited to shooters who plan to mount the unit on a tripod for extended glassing.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who paired the KILO5K with AB Kestrel units described it as accurate and reliable for hunting and PRS use, and one reviewer highlighted fast target acquisition and accurate bullet drop data. The main drawback raised was the unit's light weight making it harder to hold steady at long range without a tripod, which it does not include. One reviewer who returned it felt it did not live up to the Sig Sauer name, though most others described it as a strong upgrade from the earlier Kilo3.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Applied Ballistics Ultralite and environmental sensors built in
- Pairs with Kestrel and Garmin devices via BDX External
- OLED display brightness adapts between sunlight and low light
- BaseMap app support for marking ranged targets
- No 1/4-20 tripod mount included
- Light body can be harder to hold steady at maximum range
Performance notes
Reviewers using it alongside AB Kestrel units reported accurate readings and reliable pairing, and the BaseMap app integration let one hunter mark ranged targets directly on a map for later use. The unit's light weight makes it easy to carry, but the same weight was cited as a downside for holding the monocular steady at extended distances without a mount.
