I am curious what everyone's opinion is on a middle of the road price rangefinder would be for archery hunting? I do rifle hunt sometimes, but dont shoot over 500 yards or so. Cabelas has a redfield on sale, anyone know about those?
-
I have a leupold rxII and it works good out to about 400yrds...would be fine for flinging feathers at stuff.
-
I use a leupold rx full draw and abosoulty love it. I have got reading on trees out to 700 and something yards. I didn't like the redfied ones.
-
I would go with a nikon archers choice with angle compensation around 150.
-
:yeah: the Nikon range finder he is talking about is a good deal for one that is just for archery. I did a ton of research and went with the vortex 1000. It has red numbers and is the only one I found that had waterproof and lifetime warranty. Those are two big dealers to me when thinking about buying hunting stuff especially electronics.
-
If anyone is interested I have a Nikon Riflehunter 550 with angle compensation & a retrievable tether strap that I'd sell for 130.00 for both. Both are in excellent shape. I've upgraded to the Vortex Ranger 1000 so had this one laying around a while. I can post a photo if interested.

I think that the Leupold RX-Full Draw is a great rangefinder for archery. It's designed specifically for bow hunters. It will adjust with incline/decline giving you the true range that you need for your arrow. You can also use it for when you go rifle hunting. But it is perfect for bow hunting. I will include a link to the product below:
