I am looking to buy a new ranger finder. There are so many to choose from and so many different reviews. I thought I would see what yall like. I only bow hunt so I dont need anything that will go long distances.

Nikon Archer's Choice Laser Rangefinder

I have put this Rangefinder to the true test in every type of weather condition possible from 100+F to -15F degree's below zero, dropped/banged the unit up, rain, sleet, and snow the unit works perfectly every time..

I like the range adjustment for Incline/Decline also

2 years with my Nikon and no complaints. Haven't used any other brands, so I can't fairly compare, but I like the Nikon.

The one with the best multi coated optics... I have cheap busnell and it drives me crazy in lower light

I would go for the Leupold RX-1000 TBR if I was in the market.

If you want.......I'll sell you my Bushnell and then I can get the Leupold.

Anyone tried the new Redfield? I'm really impressed w/their new scope, for the money, that is.

ive got the bushnell yardage pro.. think i paid 200$..it would be fine for bowhunting but when you get out to rifle distance it really struggles.. my brother has the legend model and it works alot better at a distance and if the target isnt as big as a house..
