I've had a Leopold RXi something for about 6 years....perfect

I have the old brick Leica- its good

I've used Nikon too- worked great. The only one I had fail was 20 years ago - a Bushnell Scout

I use a vortex hunting because of the warranty, for the accuracy, I have been using the Bushnell.




Leupold won't get anymore of my money. I bought a original angle compensating RF from them, and a few days(3 I think) past a year they wouldn't warranty it. That's on top of issues I have had with their other optics.

Thread 'Bushnell Broadhead' https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/bushnell-broadhead.271737/

Only issue I had with the Bushnell was one shoot fog was so thick it wouldn't read, but it was also thick enough I couldn't see enough out of my peep to shoot.

Interesting going to look closer into the Broadhead. Ty

I have the Full Draw 4 and it's been great for me. Angle compensation has always been spot on and the apex flight path visual has also been pretty damn good. Put it to the test at TAC this summer where it was showing me that my only way to hit the 50 yard target was to arch over a branch in the middle. It showed me going straight through the gap and I'll be damned that's exactly where the arrow flew.

I also got mine from EuroOptic about this time two years ago on sale for about 20% off. Killer deal

I've been happy with my Sig rangefinder. It has my rifle compensating ballistics built into it. A friend of mine had an issues with his, the laser was off a little. Not bad enough to use, Sig ended up replacing it with a better model.

It would be nice to have some dope on my rangefinder for archery season. I passed on a bull at 60 yards this year because I didnt know if my arrow was going to hit a branch 30 yards out or not.
