[QUOTE="Alan Griffith, post: 833665, member: 4686"] I started with one of the original Bushnell RF about 16 yrs ago. About 4-5 yrs back I bit the bullet and bought the Swaro. Loved it except for the too lightly lit green read out that was difficult to read in bright light. Bought the Leica 1600 and tested it SxS with the Swaro. Sold the Swaro. Ran the Leica 1600 for about a year+ then bought the Leica 1600b and tested them SxS. Sold the 1600. Ran it for a year and tested a friend's G7 SxS and sold the 1600B. I'm in near heaven with the G7. In June I competed in a high altitude steel challenge over a two day course, shooting steel out to 1140, in the 7,000 to 8,000' elev range. The G7 was spot on every time as my confidence was not complete yet so I was double checking it against my Shooter drops. I've since ran it out to 1341 using the internal ballistic calculator with it being exactly on. I've also used it out to 1784 yds, pulling the angle, temp and baro pressure off the unit and entering the data into my Shooter program. Again, spot on. I'll be envious of you folks who wait a bit and get a model that will give coriolis and/or spin drift. Personally I could care less about MIL readouts but I know many folks who will wait for that version too. Alan [/QUOTE]
