[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1228728, member: 10291"] From a practical standpoint I have found that a ranging binocular is awkward to range with in practice. Frequently, from a prone position, it is necessary to take multiple ranges on a moving animal before a shot is taken. At this point, when on game I toggle between my rifle scope, and rangefinder while in prone position, I personally find a binocular difficult to position while prone on the rifle, My G7 can be easily braced against the scope or rifle and held rock steady, While I frequently will take a range while glassing, I separate glassing from shot preparation. Just my preference. My G7 has proven to be the most effective approach for me for ranging and ballistics calculations with success on game to 1200 yards. The G7 also has a wind calculation feature that works nicely once the wind condition is determined. Speed is important to me and the G7 works well for the skittish white tails that are my primary quarry. They are always moving, and give little time for a good shot. [/QUOTE]
