Hi,

There are far too many variables involved to give you a number on effective range of any heatseeker/gamefinder. Ambient temperature, wind, animal size, and especially, amount of cover between you and the animal will have a great impact on effective range. Performance will vary widely from day to day and even hour to hour. I recommend a heatseeker / gamefinder as a backup or an aide to finding game, but not as a primary means of finding game.

No gamefinder will ever be able to identify the type of target. If you need
that capability, you will need to move into a thermal imager Raytheon X100xp Thermal-Eye Camera.
Thanks for posting with us
