I have been looking into range finders and actually went out and looked through a few. The guy at Gander said this was a really good one, for 300 bucks. I have the money, since I'm not getting a new bow, and I was wondering if anyone else is using this? Is it a good one? I'll use it for both rifle and bow hunting. I'll only be seeing about a max of 250 yards rifle hunting, so I don't want an over kill finder. Would this one work for me?

We have the 800 and it just gives you more range. I got it for $291 on sale with a jacket at midway . The extra range is nice but not necessary .

I would say if a person has the money to spend go for it.I personaly use my scope as a range finder.The point to point distance of a 30/30 reticle is equal to 30 inches at 100yds. @4x.The average size buck would fill this distance.If it fills only half the distance,it is 200yds away.If it fills one-third the distance, it is 300yds. away.
