    I got a Nikon prostaff 5 not long ago and wouldn't go without it. It was cheap and it works flawless out to 600m, anything past that it struggles but that just means I need to keep walking. I compared it to a fancy golf one that cost nearly twice as much and found mine picked up ranges a lot better

    Do NOT get a cheap "400yd" one.
    My mate did (against my advice) and it's pathetic. Barely manages 300yds in some conditions.

    For which you don't even need a rangefinder, had a mate do the same thing.

    If you have the cash leica 1600 or 1600b,
    if not those bushel arc"s are ok entry/mid level out to about 600 yds.800 on an good day
    You see a few of the earlier leicas for $500 ish, they are maybe a better option than the bushels, but Ive never used one,
    I started with a bushel 1200 ARC,
    Used a mates leica 1600,
    Now own a 1600b and am very happy with it,
