Even the most accurate rifle and scope combination is rendered useless without the precise target range data the Ranger rangefinder provides. Easy-to-use, the Ranger bucks the trend of overly complicated electronics that are more of a hindrance in the field than they are an asset. The built-in angle compensation is popular with treestand hunters looking to get exact horizontal distance to a deer and long-range shooters who need to calculate complex ballistic solutions with precise data. A utility clip keeps these compact units close at hand for rapid deployment and each model is easily adapted to any 1/4-20 tripod plate when a more rock steady base is required.
Compact, ergonomic and lightweight, the Ranger 1800 is easy to pack or hang around your neck using the included lanyard. The adjustable utility clip mounted to the body offers an innovative way to clip the unit to a belt, pocket, or other flat edged surface for easy access. Clip can be mounted to right or left side of the unit or completely removed. Runs on common CR2 battery.
The Ranger 1800 uses HCD (Horizontal Component Distance) angle-compensated ranging technology to give bow and rifle shooters the critical distance data needed to make accurate shots.

All Purpose Range FinderI have owned the Ranger 1800 for 4 months and have used it for hunting here in Western WI. Very easy to use and compact. I have ranged non-reflective targets out to 875 yards and reflective to 925 yards. The illuminated display works great in all light conditions except very bright sunlight with light colored background (snow/corn stubble). In these specific situations, the display is hard to read, but definitely not a deal breaker. The 3 brightness settings for the illuminated display work great, but wish they were listed first in the menu, because they are changed the most often. Overall, great product and only rangefinder with a lifetime warranty.

Works like a charmI use this mainly for bow hunting, but also used it to gauge some landmarks while deer hunting gun season last year. Granted, the ranges I was looking at were 150 yards or less, but the compact package, and ease of use allowed me to range deer without being busted. I've enjoyed using it to tune my bow as well setting targets at various distances in the yard to check my pins. I've gotten my unit wet, and dropped it in snow and have had no issues at all. just dried it off and went about my hunt. And the thing never fogs. Another great Vortex product

Currently in use OverseasI bought this ranger 1800 before my current deployment to Afghanistan. I’m a U.S. Army sniper with the 10th Mountain Division and an avid shooter. I own many Vortex optics and this was a no brainer. The display is bright, the buttons are very tangible and easy to find with gloves on, the clarity of the glass is also more than you would expect for middle of the line range finder. I was able to easily and quickly find ranges to multiple targets during all hours of the day. Shooting at angles is something that a sniper has to account for, and this rangefinder makes it extremely easy to do that. This rangefinder was clipped to my kit 24/7 through snow, rain and extreme temperature changes. It never once failed me. Literally trusting this rangefinder with my life as well as my buddies. Great product and will always buy from Vortex Optics.
