Default Bushnell Range Finder ?

Was wondering if any of you use one of these and what your take is on them. I am getting one of the two and was hoping to get a clue as to which one is the better range finder. I amasking only aboutbushnell because I have a thing where I can get a deal from bushnell right now. Thanks. WCL

I have the least expensive yardage pro Bushnell makes (doesn't look like either of those) and it works great. It will actually range down to 8 yds which is helpful for bowhunting and airgun shooting. Good luck.

I have the scout as well. It will easily handle any distance that I'll shoot.

Has anyone used the Scout 100 with ARC9Angle range compensation)??? I'm looking at getting one but wanted to hear some opinions on it first.

The scout works great. I see no need at allto get one that compensates forangle unless your hunting in mountains or something.

I have the Elite 1500. I really like it, got it last year. My only beef is it stays on for 45 seconds after I push the button and the battery suffers because of that. Still, I managed to range a white steel building at dusk at 1572 yards with it. Works on elk out to 700 yards (and that's farther than I need it to anyway) so I'm happy. Works on every deer or elk I've used it on out to 400 yards or further, which is one reason I got the more powerful one as brown deer against brown sage and dirt is hard for some lasers to pick up.
