Re: Range finder
Would it need to be top of the line or the old Aldi one do the job

The Aldi one works, if you can see the target animal - you can range it.crackers17 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 14, 2020 8:10 pm Would it need to be top of the line or the old Aldi one do the job
The difficulty is trying to read an unlit LCD screen / trying to see your target with a backlit screen.

I have had some cheapy ones (leupold) a Zeiss and a Leica and this had by far the best optics for night work ......crackers17 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 14, 2020 8:10 pm Would it need to be top of the line or the old Aldi one do the job

Re: Range finder
Just need to dial the brightness level down to its lowest setting. Then remember to turn it back up for daytime use.

I picked up a second hand Leica 1600 that works well, happy for you to borrow it and try under the spotlight if you want.
