I picked up a Leupold RX1000i about a month ago and have been "playing" with it on and off for a bit now. I am impressed with the quality of the optics, the availability of having both rifle and bow settings and the overall bang for the buck.
I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality rangefinder.

Thanks. Have you tried to see how it does in low light?

Works well in low light, the display was a little bright but I believe it can be turned down so it isn't that bright. It works well and easy to see in the bright sunlight. As it also has 6X magnification, it works well as a monocular as well.

I used RX 750, true ballistic range show the true range for aim, one problem for RX750 is hard to see LCD in low light.

No problem with the RX 1000i seeing in low light. Getting the true ballistic range is good as well as there is bow and rifle settings. The bow setting is only good for ballistic range to 125 yards, but I hope nobody is lobbing arrows that far.

RX750 bow mode range to 60 yards. I think it enough of CB hunting.
(If the range further than 60 yards I read range in LOS (Line of sign))
First time I order RX 1000 but it out of stock so I decided to RX750.
