Im getting ready to buy a angle compensating rangefinder. Was wanting to hear everybody's opinions on the ones that are out there, archers choice, bushnell scout 1000, chuck adams bushnell, leupold.

I think I saw that Wildgame Innovations has one out now too, not sure on the quality but their prices seem to be low on other things. FYI, the distance changes the most on close steep angle shots. The farther the shot the less the change in actual distance. If I remember right, from a 20' stand at 30 yards it is less than a yard change.

Take a look through this http://iowawhitetail.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34335. There is some discussion on brands towards the end. I have the Bushnell Scout but have not hunted with it yet.

Here is another with some good discussion. http://iowawhitetail.com/forum/showt...t=range+finder

Go to "search" in the main tool bar. Type "rangefinder" in and you will likely find more discussions on this. Might give you more options.

Good luck!
