[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1410969, member: 10291"] Since introduction about 7 years ago, I have used the Gen1 G7 and upgraded to the Gen 2. Both G7 versions have proven to be rock solid in terms of function and reliability, with game and varmints successfully taken to 1200+ yards. I acquired Sig 2400 about a year ago, Comparing both through a season of PRS competition and LRH they have both produced identical ballistic outputs when programmed with the same rifle/load. While the Sig has some appealing features and advanced programming capability, I have also experienced issues when exposed to the extremes of hot and cold temperatures.....PRS matches last summer, and hunting in freezing temperatures in Canada this past season. I have had complete reliability of both versions of the G7 under these conditions. The most distinguishing difference between the G7 and the Sig2400 is the range filtering software. Once the “Tru-Targeting” feature of the G7 is understood, IMO, it is far more effective then the approach used with the Sig 2400 for quickly acquiring accurate ranges when the target has foreground or background interferences. I frequently encounter these interferences when hunting. I am surprised at the number of G7 users I’ve run into that neither understand, or utilize this valuable capability. As a result of spending the last year comparing the two RF’s, I plan on resuming the use of the G7 for LR hunting. I’ll use the Sig 2400 for competition/general LR shooting....but keep it protected from prolonged exposure the direct sun/heat. [/QUOTE]
