Rangefinder?

RE: Rangefinder?
That's the very model I own as well, and it's a dandy. Who needs more yardage than 440 anyway? For bowhunting it's nice and small and fits right into your pocket. besides it waterproof as well.

I have one for sale, in great condition. Only use it 4-5 times outdoor.
E-mail me if you are interested and want some pics, I'll let it go for a fair price.

I have used the Bushnell yardage pro sport, the nikon 440 and 600. I feel they all were good to use when bowhunting. The nikons are smaller, and offer better lasers and the scan function. The Bushnell would not shoot through my shoot through mesh on my ground blind when the nikons would. The nikons 440 and Bushnell will not shoot through glass, but funny thing the 600 nikon will. I just sold my bushnell after my cousin who let me use his 440 this year bought me a 600 for xmas after I guided him to his buck of a lifetime. Hope this info helps...

I would recommend the Nikon 440. I had one and loved it. Small enough you didn't notice it, but clear and accruate.
Which brings me to a different point, if your hunting in SW Wisconsin woods, and you find a Nikon 440, please let me know....I lost mine chasing Wisconsin gobblers last year.

RE: Rangefinder?
I originally had a Nikon 440. It worked ok for bowhunting. Don't plan on using it the first or last half hour of the day as it's too dark to effectively range anything. Also, I used it rifle hunting this fall and couldn't range a deer at 250 yds. I just bought a Leica 700 from Cabela's ($349 right now) and am very pleased so far. Visibility in low light is much better than the Nikon.
