I’m in the market for a rangefinder and wanted y’alls opinion on some choices. Really wanting to stay around or under $250. I had a cheaper one and it has crapped out.

Vortex. Their VIP warranty also covers their rangefinders. It’ll be the last one you’ll ever have to buy… even if you break it.

It will be used for bow hunting mostly.

I’ve been using Nikon only complaint is that I can’t see the range in low light conditions.

I use my golf rangefinder. It’s a Blue Tees and was around $200 and has slope.

I like my Leupold. It has angle compensation and the readout is RED. No more pointing at the sky at low light to see the display lol

Thanks guys, I believe I’m going to go with one that has the red read out. Now just to figure out which one is gonna be the fun part. I have vortex and leupold optics and like both so it will be one of those two.

Would you be interested in a Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450? It's used but works.

The Bushnell I just got swaps from red to a black readout depending on the lighting.
I have the Bushnell prime 1300 and I'm very happy with it.
