I am looking to purchase a reliable one-mile rangefinder. I have read a ton of online reviews on both of these units but I am looking for opinions from those who own or have tried these side by side. Any thoughts on performance of range, low-light conditions, divergence, etc? Thanks in advance.
Rangefinder Decision Time: Leica Rangemaster CRF 2000B vs Sig Sauer Kilo 2200MR
- Thread starter davemartin
- Start date
I had the Kilo 2000 and was very.impressed with the speed, consistency and various reflective ranges that it was capable of. Bought a Bushnell 1 Mile Conx rangefinder for reasons of Bluetooth.compatibility with my Kestrel weather station/Applied Ballistics calculator. Big mistake. as the Bushnell "elite" offering was a huge step backwards in terms of capability. I've just purchased a SIG Kilo 2200MR to regain what I lost when I sold my Kilo 2000. It has a number of incremental improvements over the Kilo 2000 such that the 2200MR (Mil Reticle) can be considered an enhanced version of the 2000 rather than. a full-blown model change. An easier to read auto-adjust display, sharper aiming point and slightly (?) better range are apparently the key advantages of the MR.
I don't have any experience with Leica so can't help you with that comparison. Your best bet might be to try both side-by-each for yourself at your LGS or nearest Cabelas....
A final consideration ought to be value for your dollar. From everything I have researched and experienced first hand, it will be hard to beat the SIG in that department.

Not one of the mentioned brands, but the Canadian made Newcon is certainly worth looking at.
I use the 3500 series and have great success ranging targets well in excess of the 1 mile mark.
They also offer a 2200 series that is a monocular style and also has no problem with getting 2200 yard readings on relatively reflective targets and 1900 plus on cattle.

Cost a fair bit more than the 2000B. Both are great!
