[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 499087, member: 2011"] Again, the reviews here tell a story. Keep in mind the big consideration is "BEAM DIVERGENCE". Ranging to 1500 yards on the wrong object is a miss no matter what you paid for the LRF. Broz used his Vectronics to make a 1k or so coyote first shot hit on fairly flat ground. I doubt there is another almost affordable LRF that would allow that shot. The Leica 1200 & 1600s have a smaller divergence than any of the others in that price range. My 1200 would range to 1500 accurately, before the sun came up and after the sun went down. At high noon 8-900 was about it at my favorite 'hide' location. Sold it and am budgeting for a 1600 as, thinking small/cheaper but am dreaming of the Vectronix. [/QUOTE]
