    This arrived today so i only got to play around with it the last hour or so, first impressions are very positive, can't get over how small it is, gives instant ranges and seems to work very well although i've only ranged 6-348 yds so far, glass is crisp but a tiny bit dull but for the price its better than expected cant wait to test it in the field now

    How did this work out for you?

    Very good so far, haven't used it much as i haven't had time, was out on the farm doing a few jobs after work during the week and played around with it, literally can't say anything bad about it, have ranged out past 600 yards with it, sometimes you have to press the button a few times if you are aiming at trees or ditches but i expected that, i was always told if you are buying a rangefinder that isn't leica zeiss or swarovski half the distance it supposedly ranges but thats certainley not the case with this, easily measures out to 4-500 yards, only downside i've had with it is my usual 100 and 200 yard zero spots turned out to be over 150 and 250 yards, haha, its hard get a proper pic through it but here i am ranging a few sheep

    I'd still love a leica because they are one of the best but value for money these are top class
