Most commercial LRF's are 905nm, so if you want to check beam size, shape and position, they can be seen in a night vision device like a PVS-14. Most mil-spec systems are 1550nm and not visible in NVG's. 1550nm also allows for much more power while still remaining eyesafe. My Vector 21 for example will range to 13,000 yards and it is still eyesafe. With a small beam of .7x.3 mil I can range an 18x24 inch camo painted steel plate at 2500 yards. Beam shape is also an issue, most commercial units are setup for hunters, where the target animal is generally wider than it is tall, so the beam is wide in normal handheld position. If you are shooting targets taller than the are wide, you can turn the unit sideways to get more beam on the target and get a more reliable return.
It’s wild that I’ve never seen another Guntuber make a video dedicated to rangefinders. I didn’t even know they could get this fancy until I started watching you.
I got a tip from a recon sniper here in sweden. They use the Leica crf 2400r. Works great without breaking the bank. Mine gets out to 1700m (1800-ish yrd) on spruce. Good enough for me.
I appreciate your videos, I train as I fight and I always heard, “train as we fight” and “if it ain’t rainin’ we ain’t trainin”. I’ve had some struggles after service, since I don’t pt everyday with cardio I have put on extra pounds, its muscle but good strong cardio is needed to carry them heavy ass muscles too. Stay frosty my friend and head on a swivel. Good stuff though keep on keepin on with it hooah!
The new Bushnell R5 series should get an honorable mention on your entry level range finder list. It has Applied Ballistics integrated and its $250 I am sure it has all the same shortfalls as similar cheap range finders, but its worth a look.
Similar experience with the Vortex low end as I've gotten with mine out at longer ranges. Anything beyond about 600 and they fall on their face, regardless of reflectivity.
Nope not about the laser power. It's about the sophistication and sensitivity of the sensor that receives the reflection. That's what you're paying for and what increases performance.
The first mode is great on a target like that 834.1 target, it will range the closest target(first one it hits). I.e. a target in front of the the hill
Primal rights just did a similar video. I'm just getting started in long range and have a ton of stuff to get, so I'm gonna pick up the vortex fury 5k with applied ballistics.
The Leupold laser seems like it's a horizontal line, not a circle. Ex: 2 moa tall and 8 moa wide(completely arbitrary numbers and units, but you get the point)
The only binos that were in my price range were the vortex fury or athlon chronos. My issue was that i watched videos of people struggling to range things at around 2k yards which for the money seemed ridiculous to me. So i went with the leupold rx2800 as a more affordable option until i can save up for more capable and reliable rf binos like the kilo10k. Maybe by then the tech will be better and more affordable.
I have the Leupold RX-2800 as well, and have had zero issues since I got it in 2018 or 2019, but it also still looks pretty much like new. LOL I will be upgrading to the BX-4 Range HD very soon. Would you be interested in checking it out? I live in Helena and shoot quite a bit in the North Hills. I would be interested in your input....

@@Racingboom cause they suck. Gotta actually shoot, to know what’s important

I’ve ranged to over 2000yds plenty of times with my Vortex Viper HD 3000, I confirmed it with GPS and it’s accurate. Awesome videos by the way!

I really like your ethereal sounding background music. Not too distracting or repetitive. Great choice
My Vortex Razor works great.
And I have zero issues in the cold, like some have reported

Leica geovid non-AB are on sale all over the place right now, averaging 1150 or so.
That target you’re ranging at 835-841 yards is only 636ish yards. On range cheat sheet it’s the “Bronco” target. Denver Broncos colors.

Maaannnnnn I didn't even think range finder zero was even a thing!!!! Im gonna go check my rangefinder now hahah Thanks for that one buddy!!!
Oh Fuck I've been waiting for this. Sitting down intently with a tea. And thanks for the pinned list, take a look at that afterwards.

Love the comparison
Thanks for the review without the BS.

Diver flag steel is 2096 yards.
You have any videos coming out about spotting scopes? After seeing the video on the Arken scope, I’d like to get your input on it
What do you think of the Vortex Viper HD 3000 range finder?
Thanks for the review.

Thanks for this one
What color was the “850 yard” target?
Can you make a video/series on your ladder testing and reloading
Have you had any experience with the Vortex Impact 4000?
I got one, it’s very kickass. Used it to shoot past 1000 and it works well
I love ur vids
Heart chakra guy is a good choice, ha.
What glamping chair is that?
can't remember... But it's literally heated...
No vortex fury hd?
