I like my present Leupold RX 1000i DNA the best of all I've owned to date.

Payed less than $200 for it. I'd say i got my moneys worth. It suits my needs and am happy with it, but I'm sure there are plenty of better ones of there.

Battery quit working. Zeiss PRF. I had a spare and changed it. Works fine now. Gives a quick reading on most anything at 1000 yards. Works fairly well in snow conditions and foggy air.

At least, my pair is, there seems to be QC issues with some pairs but mine work great. Empirical results rule!

Reliably ranges to 999 yards. For bow hunting I use a bushnell scout as it is easy to use one handed. Politicians and Diapers both need to be changed often, and for the same reason!
