Stop guessing at distances while on the hunting range with the Nikon RifleHunter 550 laser rangefinder. Offering absolute precision in the palm of your hand, the RifleHunter 500 employs Nikon's advanced Tru-Target ranging system, which lets users prioritize smaller and harder-to-range lone targets at the push of a button. As a result, it's easier than ever to range objects as small as fence posts, or get an instant read on that lone buck in the meadow. The unit also relies on Nikon's advanced ID technology to compensate for various incline or decline shooting angles--up to an incredible plus-or-minus 89 degrees (nearly vertical up or down). And thanks to Nikon's digital measurement processor, you'll enjoy speedy 1/2-yard accuracy within 99.5 yards, and 1-yard accuracy from 100 to 550 yards. On the other end of the spectrum, the unit can range as close as 11 yards, so you aren't restricted to long-distance targets only.

Add in such features as 6x multicoated optics, an eyeglass-friendly 18mm of eye relief, 100-percent waterproof and fogproof construction; and a maximum measurement of 733 yards and you have a comfortable, powerful range finder that leaves its competitors in the dust. Designed and engineered specifically for the rifle hunter, the device comes in a Max-1 camouflage finish and measures 1.5 by 2.7 by 5.1 inches (W x H x D).

I wanted to get a rangefinder for my husband's birthday. After reading the reviews on the Nikon Riflehunter I chose it. I wasn't disappointed. It did everything I expected and I felt good about the price compared to more expensive rangefinders. The only downfall was that it didn't help us find a spike elk. At least if we had seen one we would know how far it was!!

Just purchased Nikon's riflehunter 550 camo. Its very compact, very accurate in tests on signs, cars, surfaces in town up to 600, and even gives readings on farther distances if flat surface. In brush and mountain area, it tests great on rocks, soil slopes, etc up to same range with great accuracy. Have not tried on mammals yet, looking fwd to getting some real usage upcoming. Has great coating, crosshair, and overall feel is rugged.

I have been using the RifleHunter 550 for about a month now and it seems to be very precise. It comes in very handy for bow hunting or slug hunting. Very Satisfied!
