I swear by the Leica models if you are going to use it for rifle as well. In my personal tests beyond 200 yards non reflective targets such as deer and elk would not be seen by most range finders onreally sunny daysbut he Leica did great. Up close they all did pretty well.

I use the Nikon 550 and really like it amd had not failed me. My son also has one and likes his. I'm not trying to down grade any aother products but there is one product mention that I know some have had issues with. They will not read when you need them to. Not sure whats wrong with them if it's glare or being to close or what. With the Nikon I have never had an issue.

Mines probably the first generation Bushnell. It's not fancy or pretty, all it does is get accurate yardages everytime, for the last oh 10-12 years or so. See no reason to upgrade.
