[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1682657, member: 96226"] You're going to have problems with super small targets, especially non-reflective targets in bright sun. As the target gets smaller and less reflective and the sun gets brighter you'll have more and more trouble even getting a reading at all. High scanning rate seems should help in theory, more samples is more opportunities to get a reading. I really like the Sig Kilo 2000 & 2200. Both seem to be able to read brush and dirt in the most eye frying sunlight to well over 700yrds in my testing (that's the worst I was able to get them to perform). In sub-optimal but less than the worst possible conditions I got to 1400 yrds on cut barley. Best option if you can is to lase a terrain feature or bush that's really close to the target. The distance to the most reflective thing in the beam is what's likely to be returned. [/QUOTE]
