Range finder

[TSLPE]

Looking to buy a range finder. Got it narrowed down to three.
Nikon riflehunter 550
Nikon prostaff 550
Leupold RX-600
Thought I would ask you experts for your thoughts. Trying to keep it around $250.00 What do you think?

I just bought the Leupold RX-600 and love it.  Very clear optics.

I've got the Nikon 550 Pro staff. No complaints

+1 on the RX-600  Works great and the price is right.

Straight Shooter-  wow! Great price on that! I thought the one on ebay for $275 was a bargain. But Natchez has it for only $220. I'd be all over that one if I was in the market. I paid $350 for mine about 5 years ago.

i had a cheaper one before the leica, and wish i would have bought the best in the beginning.
the nikon rifle hunter series is very good also. these two are of the few that will read to their rated distance

Range finders have to be one of the most upgraded pieces of equipment shooters use. I, like most guys started out with a cheap unit, in my case a Bushnell, next I had a Nikon that was rated for 900yards but wouldn't get readings past 700 yards. Eventually I bought a leica 900 that worked great but it didn't take long I needed more so I upgraded to the leica 1200, again a great LRF. I hope to great a leica 1600 CRF by summer. I know their expensive but well worth the price, save up for a leica. Buy once, cry once.
