I was told that you divide the rangefinders number in half for the best reading.
For example: Say you have a Leica 1200 rangefinder, you can accuratly range a small target at 600 yards. They may adveratise the rangefinder to work at 1200 yards, but thats a large (truck size) reflective flat target.
The target itself also has alot to do with the reading. A small bush with no disticnt surface is more dificult to get an accurate reading than a billboard.
Different rangefinder manufactures also use different size lazer beams. The smaller the beam the more steady you must hold the rangefinder. A rangefinder with a large target plex is good for golfing, where a stable rest for your rangefinfer isnt practical. Where a tinny beam is good for targeting the groundhog you shot 500y away, or even the golfball itself. If you drove the ball to the green on a Par 4.
