Nikon Monarch 3000 Rangefinder

[Sinasta]

Just tested this on a steel target at 800yards and could not get a hit. Target was 12x20" and painted red. My friend parked his Jeep next to it so I could range it and it took several tries to get a hit.

I've always read that rangefinders are good to half the advertised distance, this thing probably 1/3 distance.

My SIG ranged cows in the field at 1680m today.

Ive ranged cows past 1k before. Just not sure what was up with trying to range the steel.

I picked up the nikon 4k model and promptly returned it after trying it out. I think it should say feet and not yards.A complete piece of junk as far as I am concerned. I bet they had hundreds and hundreds of those returned. You can read about them on snipershide....Hopefully they address the issues which is mainly they won't even range half of their advertised distance and infact many guys could only get them to range about 1/3 or less of their advertised distance.
