[QUOTE="captacademy, post: 718259, member: 7159"] I was using the Swaro 8x30's RF and 10x42 RFB and had a lot of trouble ranging antelope this year on my hunt. The area was very flat, it was cloudy with a light mist. The RFB would not range beyond 300 yards and the 8x30 RF went a few hundred yards further on antelope. My buddy had the Busnell ARC 1600 which seemed close to my 8x30 RF, but not better. It was a tough hunt because of the inconsistent readings, however, I was able to take a nice goat later in the day. I took the swaro set with me on a Wym antelope hunt, which had more hills and landmarks to range. Here both sets worked well to about 1700 yards. Go figure, the flat plains in NM could not be lasered well, at least by me. After, my hunts, another buddy introduced me to the Vectronix PLRF 05 and I bought one and have not looked back. Although I have not used it for a hunt yet, it has lasered stuff out to 2400 yrds so far. I can't wait to test it on a hunt next year. Just my 2 cents worth. [/QUOTE]
