    I use one. Great ranging ability. Small and light. My only issue is that the red display can be hard to read against some backgrounds but I am red/green colour blind which doesn't help I imagine.

    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    I've had one for about three years. Great, compact, lightweight unit. Great battery life, quick readout.
    I find the red display text very readable.
    I only use it for in-line distance and the TBR it calculates.
    Actually the unit has high quality glass and being 7X magnification it serves quite well as a monocular in situations when something needs checking very quickly.
    Only con is I have to remember to return it to my pocket after use. A bit expensive to forget about and lose.

    How do People find Ehr? reliable?
    i have a older unit and never had any problems using the EHR (think it only does 450y) but others have said no you have to do your own ballistics calculations.
    I just after a simple to use range finder, say range 650y dial 650y and shoot

    I'm the same colour blind as you. If it's a bright day I have to range then quickly put my hand over the lense to make it dark while it's still displaying the distance lol
