Great First Impression,
My first impression is that this is a very good rangefinder for the money. Without using the owner’s manual, I was quickly able to check ranges of several objects at our ranch – trees, metal surfaces and animals were ranged for variety – and all of them appeared to be quite accurate. Conditions were windy and mostly sunny and my time was limited, but so far I’m impressed. I look forward to using it under other conditions, such as lower light/overcast/etc. While hog hunting with a friend recently, he was using his Leupold rangefinder and was unable to get it to change to the proper mode through repeated attempts without his manual. From what I have read and from my limited experience to this point, the Nikon is a simpler device. I found it to be user-friendly and intuitive. I also own a Nikon Monarch UCC scope which has been quite impressive, with great low-light performance. I hope the quality level of this rangefinder continues to be on par with what I have come to expect from my scope. Initial results are very good!

|Nikon Riflehunter,
This unit seems to work pretty well. Had a little trouble on distant objects when closer brush was nearby. Unit wanted to pick up the closer object although it wans’t in the crosshairs so to speak. Got a reading out to 390 yards on trees without leaves this hunting season, which I thought was pretty good(leaves reflect better and are easier to “shoot” when full of moisture). Overall a good product. As always with Amazon it was a pretty easy purchase.

|great easy to use rangefinder,
i really like this product, has worked in all kinds of weather for me, i have even “shot” it through a double pane glass window and it was accurate. it does have the ability to give you both line of sight distance and horizontal distance which is good for making a shot up or down a steep incline. i only wish it would tell you the exact angle of the slope as well, probably not a big deal for most folks but i just like to know that kind of thing. all in all i really do like it, passes time while your sitting in the treestand
