[QUOTE="Broz, post: 260637, member: 7503"] Eaglet, You suprised me with this post. I usually agree with your knowledge. But this time I will respectfully disagree. Especially comparing the older Leica 1200 LRF ot the newer 1200 CRF. They are not even close to the same. I am a hunter and I hunt as hard as I can. So when I rate a rangefinder it is rated with Game only in mind. I used the Swaro this year to harvest an elk, a muley, 4 antelope, 2 whitetail, and so far 3 yotes. Ranges were from 375 to 1137 yards. I can't say ther is anything better for me yet. But I can tell you two of my complaints about the Swaro. One, reticle too big and beam devergence at 1000 is 6' Two, to slow, I don't need all that blinking and crap, I need an accurate range now. I do know from fitst hand experience that the new Leica will give you two or 3 ranges in the time it takes the swaro to give you one or in some cases just gives you the good ole _ _ _ I'm going to test them, I bought the most expensive of the three and from what I read thought I was buying the best. But I am far from pleased. Maybe I can not be pleased,,,:rolleyes: But after testing all 3 I will at least be satisfied I am using the one that is best for me on my $900 budget. Jeff [/QUOTE]
