Maybe too new for opinions yet, though it got high marks in the Cabela's cust. reviews. On sale at $100. off to boot. Just noticed it's made by Bushnell for Cabela's.

I have had bad experiences with Bushnell range finders as well. I bought a Nikon 550 this year and cannot think of one complaint.
I also disagree on the statement that "3/4 of what Cabelas sells is crap" ![]() __________________ Proud to be everything liberals cant stand!!

I am looking at the cabelas rangefinder with ARC What is ARC is that the compensation for being in a tree? If so that is bogus as are those pengulum sights. The difference in distance from a elevation od 20 feet at 10,20,30 yards is negligable. The reason bow hunters sometimes shoot high from a tree stand is because they are not bending at the waist consequently increasing their draw length There is another thread where I did the trigonometry to show this. I will look for it and link it. Quote:
