Looking at buying a new rangefinder. Any recommendations? I will be using it 99% of the time bow and gun hunting in WI. Maybe in the future I will be able to draw a tag out west, but for the most part it will be for the driftless area of WI. Not looking to spend a whole lotta cash on one if need be. I know you get what you pay for….Thanks in advance.
waterswat, I have the Bushnell Yardage Pro…. works everytime 
I put a new 9V in every fall and it’s good to go. No problems in cold weather Have fun shopping

I looked at the 800 when I got my 550. The only difference appeared to be it ranged to 800 yards instead of 550 and the cost. I thought about it and decided that I probably could not even see 800 yards and would not need to range anything that far even if I could. It worked as well as the 550 but could not justify the additional cost. I don’t think you could go wrong with anything Nikon makes.

I’m a Nikon Fan also, good glass for the Money. I would also suggest the Nikon 550 or Rifle Hunter depending on your need for Angle Compensation..

Agree with the Nikon comments, I own a 550. Works great everytime, and ranges through the screen-mesh of a covert blind. That’s something that I’m pretty sure no other mfrs. lazer can do.

Thanks a lot for the comments. I will be checking out the Nikon’s and the Bushnell line and see what I like.

I love this unit.
Well I purchased the Bushnell rangefinder/bino combo pack. It had the bushnell 1000 w/arc along with 10×42 waterproof bino’s. I hope this will be good enough for elk, antelope some day. Anyone else purchase this combo unit or have experience with it. Seemed to be a really good deal for what I was looking for.
