I upgraded to this rangefinder binocular combo on a recommendation from some Special Forces scout sniper friends. I figured if it was good enough for them, its good enough for my Alaska needs. I was using a pair of Leupold RXB-IV (RB800 predecessor) rangefinding binoculars. The Leupolds only ranged large flat surfaces at 700 yards and animals 400-500 yards on a good day. They were rated for 1500 yards. The glass was decent and the battery wore out quickly. These Bushnell Fusion 10x40s blow the Leupolds away in every category. The glass is so much better and easier to focus, and keep focused. The laser rangefinder is very powerful. I ranged a group of trees instantly at 1128 yards in a snow storm. The unit is also super simple to use and pretty much had it mastered before I read the instructions. The CR123 battery is also very easy to change. This was extremely cumbersome with my Leupold RXB-IV. I would recommend these to anyone as it is a quality product.
Pros: Easy to use, very powerful laser, easy to focus, nice glass for the cost, one unit does both
Cons: CR123 battery, these batteries do not last long in cold climates
