I am new to this site and am looking for some advice on which rangefinder to buy. The models I'm debating between are the Bushnell Yardage Pro 450, the Nikon ProStaff Laser 440, the Bushnell Yardage Pro Trophy and the Cabela's CLR 800 (made by Bushnell). My budget requires me keep the rangefinder at or below $225. It will be used primarily for bowhunting for Whitetails in timber from a treestand but will also be used for rifle hunting in timber and possibly a trip out West for elk. Also, I wear glasses. Any advice on these four models or suggstions on other models would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I have a pair of the bushnell yardage pro 450's there all right for a tree stand other than that I'm not really impressed with them,at the time I did'nt have alot to spend on a pair,mine were $150.00 the clairity is not good on them if you put the nikons next to them I'm sure you would take the nikons,you can't scan an animal in the brush or thickets with mine the nikons I'm pretty sure they will,and I wish I would have put another $50.00 with it and got the nikons the bushy's may say 450 on them but around 220yds. is the farthest I could ever range with em........Ted
