LEICA!!!! Hands down !!

I am sure that the CRF 900 is available at $499 OR LESS if you research it. Don't be "penny wise and pound foolish", buy the Leica and you will be glad you did!

I had been using a nikon buckmasters rangefinder that my wife had bought me for several years, with no problems...until...I saw a very nice buck in LOW LIGHT and it would not reflect a yardage reading. I could see it with both my scope and binos, but it would not give me a reading in low light. I researched the "new" rangefinders thoroughly before buying the Leica CRF 1200. The fact is that this unit will almost read in the DARK! The optics are so CLEAR that it would certainly replace a pair of compact binos while bow hunting. The size is great and it fits easily in a jacket pocket. The LED sight is very nice and easy to read. This is one of the best "tools" I have ever purchased. If I could rate it 10 stars on a 5 star scale I would! I would very much recomend this to anyone interested in a new rangefinder. I would purchase the Leica 900 CRF for the price difference. It was not available when I bought the CRF 1200. It will prove to be MONEY WELL SPENT!"
