[QUOTE="7Rum Slayer, post: 2275283, member: 113894"] First off yes smoke will limit your ranging for sure, I live and hunt in Northern Ca I know this all to well. I have a few Leica rangefinders including the 1600B and most have been very reliable. I love my 1000R for bowhunting and have had if for years, also have an older LRF box 1200 that has been extremely durable. That being said I have had nothing but problems with my 1600B. The ballistic curves never matched anything so I use it as a stand alone, it quit ranging past about 600 yards in the first year. I sent back to Leica USA and they sent me a new one. It sat in my safe for a few years before I tried that one and It would not range accurate at bowhunting distances. Back to Leica and another one was sent out. So far the third one is working but honestly I have lost faith in it. I run my G7 BR2 for hunting and am currently waiting on the G7 BR4. Leica will make it right, but I am over that model. best of luck, Jason [/QUOTE]
