[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 140990, member: 1403"] Right at 800 yards on a deer and coyotes, 875 yards on an elk. 900 yards on building. I am using a Nikon 800 Buckmasters. However on the flip side, I was yote hunting yesterday. Spot a coyote across a bare plowed wheat field. He was no more then 600 yards, my nikon 800 would not pick him up. I've found my nikon to be pretty crappy as far as ranging over wheat fields on coyotes. On deer it seems to do a lot better, but I've read/heard that ranging over flat terrain is hard for lasers cuz theres nothing to bounce back. Needless to say, I missed the stupid coyote that was standing there. ****ed me off. I would like to try the Nikon 1200, or leica 1200. For pure ranging capability though, cant beat the swaro. My buddy bought one of leupolds 1000 yard models with TBR. It would not range deer past 450-500 period. Leupold needs to do something about there ranging, or forget being in the rangefinder business.
