Hosery Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Haven’t had anything to do with the Aldi ones. But bolt action productions on YouTube did a review of them might be worth a look if your interested. He gave it a alright wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cox416 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I got one last year, good up to 500m (says 800m on the box). batterys still going and isnt bad in low light I have borrowed a vortex rangefinder and its 100% $200 better but for the cost and being ALDI I would buy another.

SamHuntVic Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Yes, buy it. I use mine on the weekend for distance measuring for zeroing. I also use it in the field for sit and wait situations where I want to know the range of several points in the distance. I've had mine a couple of years now it's good value. I seem to remember the box claiming 800m. I could never get that, max was 500m. Grant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddyT Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Tried mine out (my local Aldi had a line up before opening- i got the second last one 3 minutes after opening)- seems to be fine, gave it a run on some trees at dusk in the backyard out to 200M away in the half light and it takes a reading no probs- I dont trust my shooting much past that anyway , mainly bought it so im not tempted to take a stupid shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDTV Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 As per distance claims, even my Redfield doesnt do 600 very often... good days get 500. Realistically , 300+ is a long way an needs more than a range finder to poke game with. The rangeys just help to know weather you are in range or out of range.. if out then how far to get in range Having one helps your eye without one when guessing distance after a while. Will be keen to hear how Aldi goes on its claim fellas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave9.3x62 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 I work on a factor of about 50% on most range finders, so if its rated to 1000m count on the reliable max being about 500m in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
