Title: Leica rangefinder suggestion
Post by: Damnimissed on October 28, 2018, 04:18:40 PM: I can’t decide between the CRF 1600-R and the CRF 2000-B. EuroOptics has them both for $399 right now. I would appreciate some input from those with knowledge of these models. I wouldn’t really need it for anything super long range, 600yds max right now, but still like to have something more than capable for my needs. Thanks

The 1600B & 2000B do not have Angle Comp at bowrange distances. It's mainly for rifle hunters or guys who do not need Angle Comp!

Thank you. I’ve compared the specs but didn’t notice the angle comp was different between the two!
