[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 123730, member: 1403"] I'm very curious as to how the nikon 1200 would perform. I have the nikon 800 and it does well out to 700-800 yards, and I've got readings on elk and deer still out to 850-900 on very good days. This was all using my knee as a rest. The nikon 1200 should do at least 1200, with the advent of still being a little cheaper then the leica 1200. I know I wouldn't buy Leica anything, there customer service was very poor with my uncle and there 800 unit. He dropped it 1 time and it wouldn't range past 200 yards, so he sent it into them and they said it was non-fixable, but they would give him the newer 900 unit for $100 less then what they were going for. Needless to say, he told them to stick it. As far as my Nikon goes, that thing has survived more careless falls from my carelessness then I can remember. The more recent one is falling off my truck going 45 mph down a gravel road. once I figured it was lost, I turned around and found it in the middle of the road. I figured it would be toast, but to my surprise still working and lazing great to 800 yards. I think I'll stick with a Nikon untill I'm rich enough to afford a Swarovski. [/QUOTE]
