Default rangfinders

I don' t know which to buy. I was looking at the nikon 800 and the bushnell yardage pro legend . I think I want one that scans and can be used in the rain. Both seem good, any one with experience with these or comments.

I personally use the Legend and have been very happy with it. I would recommend it to anyone.

Leica 800. One button, no messing with different functions, works great in rain,snow or shine. Cost' s more but the difference in clarity and brightness between it and the nikon were unbelievable. I also posted in bowhunting gear review.

Thanks for all the input. I had gift certificates for cabelas so I bought a leica LRF 900 scan. Just got it and it seems to work great.
thanks to all..
