The new RifleHunter 550 Rangefinder combines speed and accuracy with Nikon's ID (Incline/Decline) Technology. Designed with the rifle hunter in mind, but great for any hunter, the RifleHunter features a 550-Yard range, Nikon's legendary multi-coated optics, waterproof/fogproof ruggedness and pocket-sized portability.
Nikon ID Technology
Making an accurate shot on steep terrain is no different than making a shot on flat ground - you just need to know the equivalent horizontal range to the target. ID Technology compensates for shot angles, so you can simply push the button and plan your shot according to the displayed distance - no more second guessing.
Nikon’s ID technology
Nikon’s advanced ID Technology compensates for various incline or decline shooting angles—up to an incredible + 89 degrees (nearly vertical up or down).
Displays in .2 yard/meter increments (In ID mode)
Accurate compensated distance measurements are displayed in increments of .2 yard/meter increments out to 99.8 yards and in 1 yard/meter increments past 100 yards.
Displays in .5 yard/meter Increments (In standard mode)
Accurate compensated distance measurements are displayed in increments of .5 yard/meter increments out to 99.5 yards and in 1 yard/meter increments past 100 yards.
True 550 yard ranging capability
For virtually any hunting situation.
Tru-Target™ ranging system
Flexible ranging mode capabilities for various hunting conditions and terrain.

Comments about Nikon Riflehunter 550 with ID Technology Laser Rangefinder:
Customer service did great job, shipped and arrived on time. Very easy to deal with Binoculars.com staff. Only comment I have, would be the ability to use gift debit card and balance on normal charge card. Other than that, good job.
Tested accuracy by tape measure. At 50 yards 49.6/yd in viewer. 100 yards 98.8/yds. Weather was light mist rain and overcast. Very close and will help in field and take guess work out of yardage. In low light, hard if not possible to see screen, but have used Illuminator light to view screen and would work in a pinch. (Light used- Pelican Nemo 1900 with Illuminator) I don't consider this a major problem, prescout in light or try Illuminator. You're just trying to acquire range for shot placement. Light weight, easy to use, like case that fits on belt and layard long enough to hang from neck. 6X power good enough to acquire target and adjust for shot.

I had never used a range finder before and was instantly converted. This model was easy to setup, the operational info was accurate and succinct. I will be using it in the woods and on the plains in future hunts and hikes. The clarity was amazing and adjustments easy to make.
