Overview
Raising this Bushnell to your eye gives a six-times magnified view and a laser reading to the target. It offers archery and rifle modes, compensates for slope angle, and is rated waterproof for use in wet field conditions.
Separate modes for bow and rifle hunters and range figures quoted per target type make this practical for a hunter who uses both. The limitation is that the battery is missing and the listing offers no description or accuracy rating.
Who it's for
Hunters who switch between a bow and a rifle in the same season, and who want deer-range and tree-range figures stated up front, will find the specifications useful. Buyers who do not want to source a battery, or who need exact accuracy numbers, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Archery and rifle modes
- Slope angle compensation
- Range figures per target type
- Light body for carrying
- Battery not included
- Accuracy not listed
- Listing type reads as binoculars
Performance notes
Real ranging distance depends on the target, so the quoted figures differ for trees and deer, with deer reading shorter than trees. Slope compensation adjusts the shown number to the true shot distance on a hill. The six-times magnification steadies the aim point on small or distant targets.
