Overview
A hunting laser rangefinder with 6x magnification, ranging from 3 to 700 yards, plus angle, speed, and continuous scan modes. Runs on a rechargeable battery rated for about 20,000 measurements per charge, aimed at bow and rifle hunters rather than golf use.
Accuracy and durability are what reviewers keep returning to, including two separate accounts of the unit surviving being lost outdoors for months, buried in snow or leaves, and still working when recovered. Reviewer-reported testing mostly covers shorter hunting and archery distances up to a few hundred yards rather than the full stated range.
- 6x magnification, 3-700 yard range
- Distance, angle, speed and scan modes
- 750mAh rechargeable battery, about 20,000 uses
- Weather-resistant with included case
Who it's for
Fits bow and rifle hunters who want a compact, weather-resistant rangefinder without paying premium prices for extra features. Less tested for long-range use beyond a few hundred yards based on the reviews available.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers consistently call the readings accurate and the price fair compared to premium rangefinders, with two separate accounts of the unit still working after being lost outdoors for months under snow or leaves. The one recurring weakness noted is scanning through dense brush in low light, where small branches can interrupt a reading.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Struggles in low light through dense brush, per one reviewer
- Scan mode can be interrupted by small branches in the line of sight
Performance notes
The unit ranges targets in under half a second with claimed accuracy within 1 yard, and a scan mode continuously updates distance as you move the sight across moving or hard-to-lock targets. A 750mAh rechargeable battery is rated for about 20,000 measurements per charge, removing the need to carry spare batteries.
