Advice on a new Rangefinder

[Cove]

I'd go with a Leupold. I recently bought the RX800 I believe it was and it's awesome. The image is really clear and it gathers light much better than the bushnell and nikon I have owned (comes in handy when ranging objects right at sunup before your bird pitches from the roost). It's also very quick at giving you a reading, there is no 'lag' time you may get from lesser optics. I think leupold calls it DNA something another. The angle compensation deal is not a gimmick but it's normally not a big issue turkey hunting. If you bow hunt it is very useful though.

It's like anything else. You can buy a less expensive product to get by and it may perform well enough for your applications. All just depends on how you plan to use it. . .

i personaly love my nikon archers choice works great for all seasons, it is a bit pricy.   I bought my younger cousin a halo that for turkey hunting works great as well and wasnt near as exspensive its very durable as well!

As mentioned previously, if you're looking for something strictly for turkey hunting, anything out there will work for you...if you're wanting something that can work in a variety of situations, then pay up and get the best that you can afford.  I currently own a Leupold 1000i TBR that I can use turkey and deer hunting here in SC, and take out west for longer range hunting when need be.  It was a great hunting purchase and one I don't regret in the least bit...figure out your needs and go from there...

I have a Nikon 440 that I have had for a long, long time and it still functions great.  When the time comes I will get another Nikon.
