SWAROVSKI RANGEFINDER 1500

Just want to say I LUV them!Just took them to Alaska and they are really a great tool/optics!..So good,I wont be needing my binocs any more!The clearest optics I have ever gazed through and its immediatley apparent.Guides agreed and they had Swarvo and Leicas...Then for the icing on the cake,I was able to range to around 2100yds!..negatives,few..a lil heavier than the Leica 1200 compacts,not as fast with the ranges,maybe 3-5 seconds vrs Leicas 1-3 seconds,but the 8x optics really made up for all...great definition!They are Keepers!

Is that the monocular? I wondered what they would be like to use instead of bino's and a rangefinder.

I totally agree; they work great. Especially when you only have one eye anyway, as I do! Tired of paying for binocs and only using half of them!!!!!!

Talk is cheap - except when Congress does it.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to
take an ass whoopin'

Chris, I am in exactly the same position - blind in my left eye. The swaro LRF seems to be the perfect solution.

I dont need my Binocs anymore as this baby is clearer and easier to glass with for longer periods...much more comfortable and I still have both eyes...fer now!
