[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 978756, member: 13632"] I would and did buy a used Leica 1600 before buying another brand or a shorter range Leica, I've used a lot of other brands, Nikon, Bushnell, Leupold, Vectronix and a couple others but the ONLY one I've used that was better at ranging was the Vectronix but I can not afford that so I upgraded from a Leica 1200 to a 1600 and it performs excellent. You need shoot and practice far beyond the range you want to hunt at so you need to have ranging capabilities beyond your hunting capability or you'll be always shooting just to the range you can range and this does not let you hone your skills. Get a range finder that will easily range double what you want to hunt at not just barely in good conditions but every time banging a range!! That said I would buy a Leica 1000 a million times before a Bushnell, Nikon or Leupold to save money, definitely look for a used Leica 1600 and save a couple hundred over the 1600B. [/QUOTE]
