What's the best rangefinder going around at the moment?

Looking to upgrade from my Leupold GX2

I shake a lot so I need something that picks up the pin.

And can you now have one with slope as long as it's switched off in competitions?

Looking for recommendations please and even on wher to buy

Cheers
Tom

Leupold GX4i? Excellent optics and picks up the pin really quick.

I bought a nice bushnell from Amazon a couple of years back and saved quite a bit of money compared to local retail prices. Never had any problems with it and it is accurate and reliable. But there seems to be cheaper options around.

Does anyone happen to have or used the Bushnell Tour X or Bushnell Tour Z6 and what would you recommend. I am looking at using it mainly for golf and from time to time out hunting.

I'd buy a rifle for hunting. It's not that sort of laser.

I have the Tour Z6 and can't say anything but good things about it.

Not too sure about the newer models as I haven't even looked at new ones since I bought this over a year ago.

I've got a couple of rifles already but it's to scope out the targets. Just undecided if the slope function is really needed.

I went for the Pro X7 for the advanced magnification.

You might find it too big though.

Are the targets usually stationary when you are hunting?

Normally somewhat stationary it will be used mainly for the golf side, but if I can avoid buying 2 that would be great.

Go Leupold or Bushnell , both are good brands of hunting scope , and were probably adapted from hunting to golf , the slope function would depend on where you hunt , flat country dont worry about it , If you hunt in the mountains then probably be very handy

I had the Luepold GX4i and didn't like it.
Yes its smaller, and clearer optics but i found it didn't pick up flags that well.
I bought a Bushnell Pro x7, can't fault it.

Anyone know if these are any good, was previously looking for either a v2 or v3.

I've had mine for about 3 years now and still happy with it.
I've never used the gps fiction so I don't know how accurate it is but the laser is a point a shoot, it picks up the flags easily enough and the display is clear.
