Short version is that the optics in the Sig Kilo are covered for life, but the actual laser is only covered for 5 years. Don't just trust me, go to their website and look closely.
There are two parts to the warranty as follows:
SIG SAUER ELECTRO-OPTICS INFINITE GUARANTEE™
•SIG SAUER ELECTRONIC COMPONENT LIMITED 5-YEAR WARRANTY
The "infinite" guarantee does not include the electronic component (in other words, the laser).

But how useful are these in hunting situations? I mean with coyotes, they see any kind of movement. So reaching for your ranger and then shooting... hmmm and I guess the same would go for deer.
Thoughts?

Not to side-track this thread....Usually when coyote hunting I range a few different objects to get an idea of the shooting lanes. I have had digs come in a different way and was able to range them without them seeing me.

:yeah: and normally if a coyote is far enough out to need to range it then you may be able to afford a little bit of very slow movement, and the dig is so fast it just takes a tap out to 600+ yards on the few dogs I've gotten to range sofar. Ranged a cow at 1236yards but took a sec to get since I didn't have a restNot to side-track this thread....Usually when coyote hunting I range a few different objects to get an idea of the shooting lanes.

I too range objects during a calling set up and use those objects as distance indicator.
When snow is on the ground, I snowshoe around the canyon rims here with a light rifle. I spot a yote I take a crack at it. It is rare that I don't have the opportunity to quickly put the range finder on a target before taking a shot. If they see me before I see them, they are moving fast and shooting at them is most often a waste of ammo. Besides, there's always tomorrow.
