[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 717964, member: 2011"] I haven't access to the Swaro or PLRF-05. I've conducted one session's worth of comparison between the Leica 1600 and PLRF-10. As far as ranging distance goes, they aren't in the same league. I'm confident that either the 15 or 10 will out range, under similar conditions, any other common name brand range finder. I spent a whole day in the mountains with the Leica 1600. Under what I would call ideal ranging conditions, heavy cloud cover and after sunset, I got readings @ 1994 yards "fairly repeatedly. Ranges @ 1884 yards "every time" and consistent. Up to those distances ranging was no problem excepting some foliage, sage brush dirt side hills beyond 1k that wouldn't range at all. Ranged deer and antelope across the flats by scanning from sky to animal to below the animal out to 900 yards and had great confidence that I was able to range the animal accurately and repeatedly. While I would really like to have either of the PLRFs until I'm going to take animals beyond 1500 yards the LRF I have will suit me fine. Oh, LRFs don't seem to work AT ALL, in heavily snow laden foliage. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
