My Leica 800 is at least 4 years old. It works the same as it always has.
However, in bright sunlight it is hard to get a reading past 500 yards. It is not very ergonomic.
I would be interested in a rangefinder that considers incline, but, not believe that they work out to 1000-1200 yards.
I do not shoot at 1000-1200 yards, but, many times it would be beneficial when stalking to know how far a hill, rock or stalking destination is to the animal when I am 1000 yards away.
I am currently looking at the
Zeiss 8x26 PRF
Leica CRF 1200
Important features to me are quality. Ability to actually work as advertised.
Work to 1000 yards in most conditions
easy to hold in one hand
Would like to use for bow hunting also. Do not want to own 2 rangefinders.
Would like the incline compensating feature.
I am leaning against Leica due to their very very poor customer service and warranty that I have personally experienced.
Is Zeiss better when it comes to warranty.
I am not opposed to Nikon, Bushnell or any of the other brands if it is good quality and works.
