[QUOTE="Jcann, post: 3042085, member: 33119"] The Sig K2000 is a great little range finder. I've ranged antelope over 1,200 yards and oil tank batteries at 1,576 yards. The two things I didn't like about it are the aiming circle is too big and it doesn't have a tripod mount. The scan mode corrects for the large aiming circle and makes ranging at distant objects easier. I think in scan mode it ranges 4 times a second. I bought a tripod mount for it from LongRifles Inc for about $75. If you plan to hunt a lot with it and shoot longer ranges while hunting go with the Sig K2400 with its Applied Balistics software. Case in point, I'm ranging an antelope at 870 yards while resting the Sig on my elevation turret. I check my Shooter App on my cell phone for drop and wind. The antelope begins to walk again and stops at roughly 790 yards. I have to check my phone app again. I get back on the scope and it takes me a while to find the antelope, he's on the move again. He finally stops at 712 yards. I have to get off the scope, range him, check my phone app, dial for drop and wind, get back on the scope, find the antelope, and then make the shot. You don't have to do this with the K2400. You read your dope within the range finder. Personally, I would rather have a hunting partner on a spotting scope with the range finder feeding me range, drop, and wind. This way I can concentrate on my target and shooting. [/QUOTE]
