Get a Vortex and forget about it. Vortex has a lifetime warranty. Athlon makes a decent rangefinder for not much money. I have both as well as a Sig Kilo 2200. Leica charges a lot of money and doesn't warranty crap. BTDT with Leica. For your needs, I would say the Athlon will fill the bill but would give the nod to Vortex.
