Laser range finders
« on: December 29, 2003, 05:31:28 PM »
Am looking at the Nikon & Bushnell 800 yard compacts. Has anybody used these? Are you able to get a return off a prairie dog mound? If so, how far out will they work?

Any info on other laser range finders more than welcome as well.

Have the BYP 1000, and have had 400 and 600 models as well.   They do a great job for almost all range work, but only in isolated cases will they reliably get a god reading off just a mound.   Only one I've seen that does read them fairly well is the Leica.   FWIW

Evolution at work. Over two million years ago the genus Homo had small cranial capacity and thick skin to protect them from their environment. One species has evolved into obese cranial fatheads with thin skin in comparison that whines about anything and everything as their shield against their environment. Meus
