[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 492096, member: 3745"] The thing that makes the Swaro rangefinder the "best" is that it will actually range as far as it advertises. It is a 1500 yard rangefinder, and I have many times ranged rocks and cedar trees at 2000+ yards, and have ranged elk at over 1400 yards. The only problem is at the long ranges the beam width gets a little large and it is hard to range small targets (game animals) on flatter ground at long ranges. As far as I know the only solution to this is the Vectronix. I have not had a G7 in my hand, lots of great sounding hype out there about it. Will it beat the swaro?? We shall see..... A 300 win mag will get to 1000 but not with authority IMHO. Already said I was a big fan of 338's. I would go with a Lapua or RUM. By the way, the invite still stands to drive down to central AR and do some shooting with me on my 1200 yard range. Rick [/QUOTE]
