[QUOTE="Broz, post: 657138, member: 7503"] Richard, I did quite a bit of field testing a few years ago with 5 different Swaro , 4 Leica, a Zeiss a newcon and then my PLRF10. The more I did this the more I saw the importance of a solid rest. A tripod will work well to but some will wiggle when you push the button, for this reason and because I dont always have a tirpod I prefer a bag for a rest. Also, some RF's like the PLRF10 fire the laser upon release of the button. This is a great feature. It is set like an 8 oz Jewell and will fire without movment of the RF. I stress quite a bit to people to practice with their RF if they want to improve their ranging success. Also even though you are sending a laser beam that may be 4' or more at 1000 yards, would you feel you would take that shot off hand? With a fixed 6 or 8 power scope? I know I wouldn't and not off my elbos either. Get her solid and practice with the RF. Then when the tme comes you will know how to handle different field cnditions. Jeff [/QUOTE]
