Which would you buy first... Rangefinder or Binoculars?

[QUOTE="nateisw, post: 835561, member: 44189"] I bought my optics in the following order: 1. Rifle scope (duh) 2. Rangefinder 3. Binoculars 4. Spotting scope (literally just came in the mail yesterday) I don't shoot past 300 yards, so I don't even REALLY need a rangefinder or binos for hunting. I can spot game with my bare eyes and confirm with my rifle scope. The reason I needed a rangefinder was because I don't have access to a real range and wanted to know how far away to set up my target for zeroing. The binos come in handy and I use them every time I hunt, but I don't really need it. The spotting scope isn't for hunting; it's just so I can see bullet holes in paper from further away. None of my optics would be considered "high-end", but all serve adequately for my purposes. Anyways, your situation may be different from mine and you might decide that a pair of binos should come first, but I went with a rangefinder first. [/QUOTE]
