I finally sold my Leupold Vendetta, I have narrowed down my choices to a new Nikon Archers Choice (+- 250.00) or a Bushnell Chuck Adams on sale at Nanchez (130.00 plus shipping), Any body have opinions on either one? I like the specs on the Nikon but like the price of the Chuck Adams.

Thanks

I would go wit the Nikon. If you ever want to use the cheaper one at longer distances in low light conditions, it is gonna struggle to work

I had the Bushnell Yardage pro and it was useless till the sun got up. Now I have the Leupold RXII and its the cats meow

The Leupold RXII is supposed to be bad azzzz... I've been wanting one of those for sometime, but I'm not big money. Maybe one of these days....

I am not either. Only reason I have one is I helped out a good friend a few years back who was down on hard times in a bad way. When he got back on his feet, he bought it for me as a thank you gift. He was working in a S.G. store so he got a nice discount on it

I can tell you its is clear enough and picks up enough light, I rarely carry bino's in archery season when I am hunting hammocks. I just use it as a monocular. It has the "archery mode" which tells you the actual range and the "shoot as" range..I just leave it on rifle setting so I don't get confused. Besides my thermacell, it is my second favorite tool
