Tells me exactly how much experience you have with either the 1600's or the 1 Miles, as the rangefinder in both trumps anything Leica, Zeiss, or Swarovski has to offer.


Oh? When demo'ing those, they failed to range as quickly as the Leicas or the Swaros. They did a great job on reflective hard targets (buildings, signs, etc.), but did not register as well against brown furry objects (in that case cattle at roughly 1200). They didn't stack up well.
