[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 657575, member: 13632"] I almost bit on a Fusion as I've used and us some other Bushnell range finders, but I've found that the beam deliverance is absolute key, the Bushnell range finders have a 2x4 mil beam which is great for getting a range but what are you ranging? If you have a deer in sage brush at a 1000 yards half your 72in deep beam may be on game may be on sage brush or air, I've had and used a couple Bushnell rangefinders and love them for bow hunting or regular hunting but for long range hunting for me it's proven to be a shot in the dark at best as to weather your getting a good range. Last year the Bushnell cost me a cold bore hit on a bull because it was ranging of a lower part of the hill and I shot way low, I didn't have my Leica which would have tapped him with ease so I had to wait for him to get near a tree which was big enough to get a solid range on, with the right range the next shot drilled him right at the water line at 865 yards!!
