Thank you. No bud but Sean (vizlauk) has one or may be two lrf ones he could tell you better as for the spotter its spot on mind you do have to adjust the brightness on it lol There is no eye releaf on the back and the focus is touch sensitive but once you have it set just leave it you may need some lenzes for your eyes these just push in to the eye peace rubber not sure if you get them with the unit as i got mine second hand and i got a full set with it . as for the unit its self its cristal clear once set up and easy to use ill not be with out it now lol atvbjimmy 2 Quote Link to post

philpot 4,927 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 My buddy now has an older Standard 008 and the brand new 008lrf. testing it last night, he found no difference in the distance the ir laser covers but he did say the lrf unit is fantastic with the rangefinder fitted in fact I wouldn't be surprised if he sells the older one for another lrf model as I doubt it is possible to buy and fit the lrf rangefinder to the standard model. I was interested to see that the new model is slightly smaller and the rangefinder certainly smaller than expected, very nice indeed. Phil Quote Link to post

Thank you. I’d go for the rangefinder model that’s what I use, had it since they came out! perfect for air rifles as it combats guess work and is spot on with the distances.. checked against my pocket rf Quote Link to post
