[QUOTE="BigJam, post: 1095507, member: 12077"] I have the Leica 1600 as well as the Leica Geovid range finding binoculars and they work fine, but if you want to shoot long range the only way to go is Gunwerks G7 BR2 (actually Aaron Davidson from Gunwerks did the programming for Leica on their BDC bino's based on the BR2). The BR2 is not just a range finder it is a full ballistic computer, it measures temperature, air pressure, elevation, inclination and then provides you with a bullet drop compensation (in MOA, shoot to distance and the new one out this month in mils but for a few hundred less just go for the 1st generation if you don't use mils) for any ammo you put in it and you can store up to 5 different loads in it. Over and above all this, it also provides wind hold for a 5, 10, 15, 20,....mph wind speeds at the distance you are shooting. Incredible piece of technology took a bit of doing to allow them to export the technology to us in Canada because it is so advanced but if you set it up right and you don't hit your vertical right on, its not because of the range finder guaranteed!!! Used it out to 1 mile and other than getting your wind speed estimation correct it hits every time. [/QUOTE]
