[QUOTE="kellyzier, post: 378308, member: 22137"] August will work for my hunting season, but it will not work for me at present. I shoot out to 2,000 yards and it's a pain to keep using my GPS. But at this point, there is no way I would recommend the new Swaro with the new Leica 1600 coming out...Swaro has some real serious quality problems they have to address. At this point, I have not even heard anyone from swaro even admit they have a problem. Yes, many people on this web site have had good luck, but when you pick up 12 or 13 new swaros and test them and all of them have ranging issues, baby you got a problem. Im guessing, once Leica gets this new 1600 out in the populas, it will totally dominate swaro sales, then they may have to look at their product. Im considering stepping up to the Vectronix unit. They have won many many military contracts with this unit. It's very expensive, but if you want to range to 2,000 and beyond, this is an obvious option. I think it's something like $3,500, and it ranges to 3000 yards. Like I said, until then for target shooting, the GPS will get you close enough to walk in your bullets. After using my GPS at 1600 yards, I got my son on target by the second shot. This will work for practice. KZ [/QUOTE]
