Heading to Cabelas Sunday as I am ready to make another purchase (<$500) to carry with me on my high hunt.  I have good scope & binos.  I am comfortable shooting up to 400 yards.  What would be your next purchase?

Well....just finished my shopping trip at Cabelas and decided to purchase the best deal I could, the best quality sale item.....  I bought the Leica crf1600 rangefinder.  :IBCOOL: Cabelas is closing them out and I bought the last one in stock for $150 off....  woohoo...   I checked out the spotting scopes and have my eye on the Vortex Viper HD....  just need to wait for a good  price.

good work, dude  :tup: even though I'd rather have the spotter between the two, I think you'll be glad you're making quality purchases and not half assing it.

both you need a good spotting scope to make sure its the animal you want and a good rangefinder to know the exact distance to make a good clean shot!
