Rangefinder Discussion.
 
Ok looking for a good Rangefinder, that is durable, accurate,reasonable priced and easy to use.


I read reviews a lot but also realize that people are paid to right great reviews about certain products so from experience here, what is would be a great rangefinder ?

I've used a Nikon Prostaff for a few years now and it has performed flawlessly. I like it and it's reasonably priced.

Ditto on the Nikon. Now all the rage is about the distance and height readings on the newer models. Question is, how much more accurate are they compared to the ones we have now?

I have had a Bushnell 450 for several years and it hasn't let me down. It is the bottom of the line model, but does the job.

RR

Hunting, and sighting in rifles honestly.



Nothing over 500-600 yards, mostly wooded areas here.



And excuse my ignorance because I'm not savy on most of this what exactly does the Angle Range Compensation do and what is it generally used for ?

When you shoot up or down hill, gravity has less of an effect on your bullet or arrow so you need to shoot for a shorter distance. The angle range compensation takes in account the angle you are shooting and gives you the correct yardage you are to shoot. I believe this is correct. If not, anyone can correct me on this.
