I bought one of the Tactical ones from Annaconda a few years ago when they were on special. That was spot on using my wheel measure meter/tape to verify.

Go to an inner city Aldi if you want to buy outdoor gear, last year my local Aldi was discounting trail cams and range finders to get rid of them

Like some dogs they are in my experience un-trainable. Stay single is my recommendation.

They also had scissors advertised but had sold out.

Tried cutting a rag & it certainly cuts with great ease... :thumbsup:

Iv'e been wanting an Aldi one for ages, and had heard they are pretty good.
Trouble is like most of you guys,,, can't catch up with one,,,,,,, so I just gave up trying, watching, and asking.
But,,,,,,
I wandered into our local Aldi a fortnight ago, for a few grocery items and BINGO there was one in the glass case. :shock: :shock:

This was at about 3-30 pm,,,,, and was the one and only that they had. So I bought it.

I'm pretty happy with it cos its pretty accurate so far. :thumbsup:
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing!
I've come to realize that,,,,, the two most loving, loyal, and trustworthy females in my entire life were both canines.

Picked up a rangefinder at Aldi over the weekend, only $149. If as good as my last from Aldi should be a cracker.
