Do you guys think the TBR is worth it?

I am waiting for the money to buy the Leica Geovid 10x42 Rangefinding binos. I think that would be the best of both worlds.

A whole lot of money though! The optics on the LRF's are extremely impressive and 1/2 the cost.

I had the Nikon Buckmasters which I used for many years and was completely happy with ....until...

I saw a very nice buck in low light. I could see it with my scope (leupold V-X lll 2.5-8) and my binos Steiner Predators 8x42. BUT... my range finder would not pick it up in low light... Sooooo. I bit the bullet and bought the CRF 1200 Leica, which almost ranges objects in the DARK! They have a new model out, CRF 900 at Cabelas for $500. I cannot say enough good about the Leica. COMPLETELY SATISFIED!!

Jack couldn't agree with you more, had same senario play out this year, had a 150" 13pt. come out, just out of shooting range during archery season. Watched him in total darkness with a pair of LRF 900, I don't know of any other maker with that quality of optic, beside Swarovski....

I have the leupold RX-II, I like it very much.

I like the Nikon 440s. Paid $190 shipped off of ebay. I never did have a situation where I needed to range an animal in the dark, but I could see how that could be a problem. Anyway, I'm happy with the 440. I sold my Bushnell, not because it didn't work for most situations, it just wasn't as compact, and also, I found it didn't range black targets very well (foam bear on 3D course). Of course, ranging a tree right next to the black target was a good work around, but the Nikon seems to work fine.

Buy a Bushnell unless you can fine the funds to buy a High end Range Finder. Lieca or Swaro.
I have seen all over the net about The Leupolds , people are just not happy with them you can find them for sale all over the net. Long range shooter are not happy at all with they say they don;t pick up targets well out a very long ranges 800 to 1000 yrds.
