Suggestions on a new range finder or binoculars

Wow!!!!

Superb video. I love the fact that you can manually input temperature. When I shoot in AZ and my RFs heat up like crazy in the sun - the BR7 is horrible, since it is black. Also love the fact that you can spin wind up or down - 2400 doesn't let you do that.

I am buying one! Good PR for your shooting school as well.

Only thing I would add is you didn't mention the laser wavelength or beam divergence. Also no mention of the number of ballistic profiles. Otherwise, excellent video.
Thanks
30 profiles I know web says 25 but I have 30 in mine
1.5 milrad beam
Temp can also be put in from Phone app or Cell service Airport near you
Scope Correction factor as well

Well, that is a bummer but for the price I would be stunned if it was 1550. Have used 1550's; amazing. Problem with a 1.5 mRad divergence is it might range far, but picking up small targets might be a problem. Did you have any issues ranging antelope over flat ground? That is a pretty demanding situation.

Actually its great. The amount of packets sent out with the Class 1 m laser is great
 
Has anyone compared warranties on the RF Binoculars? When you plop down the $$$ for the latest and greatest, I would hate to be sitting on decent pair of binoculars with non-functioning RF solutions a couple of years after purchasing.
 
I an thinking of getting new glass. My range finder bit the dust long ago.

The question is this: do I get separate binoculars AND a range finder? Or do I get a combined binocular/range finder? Oh yeah, my old glass was a 10x42.

I haven't shopped for these new items for a LONG time.

Any ideas or suggestions?
I've been using my Swarovski 10x42EL Ranging. Built in range compensation, fast to use, data cards also employed but separate.

My original Geovid, bought on Jul 30, 1993, still works. Heavy and featureless, but still works. You can wait on the "lastest and greatest" in terms of RFs, but I look at it kind of like the cost of business. You want the best? You have to upgrade every few years.
 
I have the LRF 2800.com and can't recall what the internal solver is but I tested the solution provided by the LRF to my Ballistics AE app on my phone out to over 800yds in various conditions (temp, angles, elevations) and was always within 0.1mrad of each other. Curious what others experience has been with the Leica .com LRF models.
I have similar results with my 2800's.
 
I am looking right now at buying some range finding binoculars. I have been using a Sig Kilo2 400ABS and Swarovski 10x42 El binoculars. I don't want to give any glass on the optics. I know the Sig 10k will have a great range finder but what about the glass? I have been looking at the Leica Pro with AB. Any opinions?

I just got the 10K and I am impressed. I have not spent much time looking through them, but I its clarity is better than I expected. I have no idea if the resolution, etc. is in line with Leica's, Swaros, etc.

The rangefinder sure is impressive, as is the "heads up" display after you range.
