(just an anecdote) Took this on a family walk, hitting houses etc at various distances along the way. Got to the waterfront, bridge in the distance, thought what the heck...

3 out of 10 tries it ranged the bridge, at 2976 yards.

They have kind of upset the fruit basket for range finders. I really like mine.

Not entirely impressed with mine so far. The furthest I can read on reflective mirror-windowed high-rise buildings is 1140 meters. I've hit trees at 1350 meters, but I have yet to be able to range anything even close to 2000. I'll keep trying and testing a bit more before sending it in, but things aren't looking great so far. My Bushnell Fusion beat it hands down.

You must have a lemon because my Kilo 2000 is far better than the Bushnell Fusions and I have gotten ranges to 3000 yards

When one is planing a stalk knowing distances occasionally is quite important.

Don't like hearing THAT. It's my next purchase. Put my Leica into honorable semi-retirement (is the plan).

You may have already checked this Jordan, but clean the sensor lens. My buddy was having trouble with his Leica and I noticed a huge fingerprint smudge on the sensor. Lens cloth cleaned it off and his LRF was working again.

I met a French guy the other day. I asked him "Do you speak German?" He said "No." I said "You're welcome!"

So you got to 1500, but not 2000?
