Ridiculous that the advertising for this only indicates 4000 yds for reflective targets
NO range on deer? No range on trees?
No one cares about reflective targets!
In all fairness, know your audience. Gunwerks builds stuff for hunters and PRS shooters. PRS shooters shoot reflective targets. I would suggest Gunwerks majority of customers would be PRS shooters.

You're trashing a product you've never had in your hands? LOL....As of right now, it's the best handheld rangefinder on the market. It's better than the Leica 3500.com, better than the Terrapin X and better than the Sig Kilo 2400ABS. I have all 4 here with me, comparing side by side - you're welcome to come and look for yourself. It is way faster than using a Leica hooked up to a Kestrel Elite, and the ballistics engine is just as spot-on as the AB solver in the Kestrel. They don't advertise range on deer sized animals, as every tom and his dog wants to return his rangefinder when he's out in the field, and tries to range that deer at the stated 1000 yards capability for example, and he cannot get a reading - either because the conditions don't allow for it or he's trying to hand hold it, and can't steady it enough in his hands etc etc etc....They don't want you comparing them to the competition that's what

Frank Galli of SH last month posted his review - he ranged a single cow in a field at 1800 yards, and he's adamant he could get a longer range. So maybe do some reading for yourself on what these RF's are getting in real world use - too many manufacturers make statements in their specs, just for users to not be able to replicate it. I'd much rather they don't make any claims, and you use it yourself and see what YOU get out of it.... Maybe go read this before you trash a unit you've never seen or used: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/gunwerks-new-rangefinder.7091438/#post-9715327

As the advertisement clearly shows a hunter, NOT prs
Ludicrous that you wouldn't include those measurements unless you have something to hide. They don't want you comparing them to the competition that's what
