Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Problems with Newer Leica CRF's?

I'm a bit confused as to how someone is experiencing a slower read time with the 1600 or 1600B vs a 1200. The read time is almost 3x as fast: .35 sec (1600) vs .85 sec (800/900/1200). Now if you're comparing initial LOS read time of the 1200 to the ballistic calculation time of the 1600 or 1600B, then that would make sense. The 1600s are always much faster on initial read time of LOS distance. If yours is not, give me a shout. Also, if you want simplicity, just don't program the ballistics portion of the 1600/1600B. Just set it to read yards or meters, and you're good to go. As far as not putting the limitations of the ballistic system into ad copy, I can only say that the CRF1600 and 1600B were designed for Riflemen, not archers, and were never marketed to archers (though many archers do use them with satisfaction). The new 1000-R, however, is built for both users, is simple, and give angle compensation from 10-600y plus LOS readings to 1000y, all for the same price ($599) as the now discontinued CRF1000. If anyone has any questions or need of assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me!
