    Leica CRF Pro Rangefinder

    I like the CRF-PRO enough that I decided to send it to for Leica rather than return it. I'll report back the diagnosis/repair.

    Yes it flickers. I was able to range to 11.1 yards.

    Leica CRF Pro Rangefinder

    I tested the Leica CFR-Pro with a new Energizer lithium CR2 during my lunch break. I couldn't efficiently range my yellow Labrador at 18 yards. I couldn't see the reticle or read out. I had to move it around a bit to see anything. This is level 5 brightness. I think I have a faulty unit. I...

    Leica CRF Pro Rangefinder

    In full morning sunshine I couldn't read the yardage against my white Morrel archery target at level 5. This is with two different batteries. I'm going to purchase a new battery and retest. My Sig Kilo 2000 on Med2 brightness level is much brighter and has three brighter settings (with the same...

    Leica CRF Pro Rangefinder

    Just got a CFR Pro. It's solves my primary issues with others I've tested. I.e. no blue tint and EHR first. So this may be a winner. I'll have to play around with ballistics later. Curious if other CFR Pro users had to put brightness at level 5? Even at level 5 I had a hard time seeing the...

    Swarovski to release 14x NL’s

    Agree. My 10x42s SLCs get me past legal shooting light. But I've been hunting in plenty of situations where I couldn't quite judge a deer out of legal light that I've wanted a >5 EP bino. Also, from reading reviews on the 10x50 ELs, they give a very easy/comfortable view regarding eye placement...

    I was hoping this thread was about a new Nightforce SHV mil reticle.

    Swarovski to release 14x NL’s

    No doubt you'll be happy! For now I'm planning to keep my 15s. I do plan to buy the 10s.

    Swarovski to release 14x NL’s

    I'll be curious if the 14s are indeed "better in every way" than the 15s. Looking at actual exit pupil and considering the latest 15s use AK prisms, I'm curious if they will still be a bit brighter in low light. It may be one of those aspects where they are equal. Considering either glass would...

    Swarovski NL 52s

    The 14s might be a 15x56 killer and I love the thought of them in the pack with 10 RF binos on the chest. But I've already convinced myself that the 10x52 will be the greatest field glass in history and I will have to own them.

    52 mm Swaro NL?

    Also according to Outdoorsman, the 14x52 is closer to 14.7x. Lighter with wider FOV than the 15x56 SLC. Nice specs. I own the 15s and don't plan to replace them. I look forward to reading the Rokslide reviews for these.

    52 mm Swaro NL?

    Outdoorsman has them priced the same as the 42mm. I hope that's true! I will own the 10x52 is they fit me.

    52 mm Swaro NL?

    Excited to see specs. I'm very interested in adding the 10x52 to the top of my wishlist.

    Sold Leupold Full Draw 5

    I've only had this rangefinder out of the box to scroll through the menu, look through it, and make a few ranges. Like new. $360 shipped. I prefer PayPal F&F or Venmo. Add 3% for PayPal G&S.

    52 mm Swaro NL?

    Same forum is reporting a 10x52 and 14x52. I'll be excited to see if the ergos work me. I'm guessing $3999 price tag!?

    Handheld/Compact/Monocular Rangefinder without Blue Tint?

    Anybody know if the Vortex Viper 3000 has the blue tint common to rangefinders?

    NWT Sheep gear decisions help

    I used a Swaro ATX 65 mm and thought it was perfect. It might be good excuse to add the 65 to your collection. Or bring your 85 and try to lose one pound of body weight. Maybe add a few squats and lunges to your routine. :)

    NWT Sheep gear decisions help

    I bring my binos with tripod for every hunt. Since I already have my tripod, no way I'd leave my spotter home for a sheep hunt. Plus add your own phone scope system. Participate in the glassing and evaluation. I'd take the Super Down Pro and the Chugach. You could easily end up on a stationary...
