Just bring it up to your eye, push the button and you instantly have the information you need to make the shot. Simple, quick and durable. What more could you ask for?

During gun season I would care my range finder to the stand with me. However one day I accidentally lost it on a friends property. 2 months later my friends dad recovered it for me it sti worked. Even after being out in the rain, snow, and negative temperatures. Great value !

I use this rangefinder for archery as well as rifle hunting. I love the angle compensator in archery. It takes the guess work out of tree stand shots. I used it on a recent trip to South Africa and was able to range my zebra at 178 yards in a flash and made the shot. It is small and light and fits into a shirt top pocket nicely. I have had it for 2 years now and the battery is still going strong which is a plus. The carry case fits nicely on your belt if you choose to use it. This range finder is easy to use and the view finder is clear and bright. I will not be needing any other rangefinder. The Nikon RifleHunter 550 is all I could ever want in a rangefinder.

I put my faith in the Nikon name and was rewarded with a valuable asset for hunting elk up here in the PacNW. The rangefinder is easy to use and is accurate up to the advertised range. A clear image helps distinguish the animal in the brush for and accurate reading. It has earned its place in my hunting pack. Thanks OP.

I needed an accurate rangefinder for deer hunting and 550 yds is plenty of range for me. Took it to the range and was within 1 yd up to 300 yds. Nice and simple, basically one button. The 6x optic is clear. It works great as a low-power spotting scope in the field. The 550 comes with a belt-loop case and carries easily. Haven't tried it under low-light.

Would recommend:  yes

I was warned to not expect a rangefinder to lock on a prairie dog at 600 yards, so I did not expect too much. This one works just fine, and locks on larger objects easily. Buttons are straightforward and simple.
