I would not pay as much attention to the reflective range as I would what range it has when it is raining / snowing outside.

Pro's is the price

Con's is that it would be ok for archery hunting where your shots are close.
But that for long range rifle it would only be fair to good.

My personal opinion is that you should not shoot offhand anything more than 350 yards.
 For that range (350) it would be just fine.

A hunter in the deep woods does not need a range finder. 
Because the possibility of seeing more than 350 yards where I hunt is questionable.

Game master. you said it all. I rarely shoot beyond 250 yds in open country. I'm a little uncertain with my ML but seldom shoot over 150, my personal limit. John, you answered my bow question. Thanks guys. Now I can order one with peace of mind. I found a deal for 139.00 is there a better price out there ?
