theseakayaker from United States, GA Public Profile

I got this for my Mossberg 500 to stay on target while speed loading from a low ready position. Zero's very easily but he real test will be to see if zero holds under recoil from high brass slugs. Laser is bright and works well in daylight and the 250 lumen white light works well in CQB with out over powering in narrow hallways.
One thing to note: In the Optics Planet Package List for this product it shows it comes with rechargeable batteries and charger. It does not. The FLG-9T is rechargeable. Not this model.

For the price, I will probably purchase another one for my CZ Scorpion. The low profile of the FLG-7 will be a good fit on that gun!!

Shooting from a CZ Scorpion the average MV was 1335.6. These are not subsonic rounds!
As a comparison, I also ran several rounds of "Active Duty" M1152, which is a +P 9mm round, and got an AVG MV
of 1445.3. That was on par for the advertised MV for M1152.

So, the Tulammo 9mm "Subsonic" round is not far behind the +P M1152 in MV.
Maybe I got a mix matched box of normal 9mm rounds placed in the "Subsonic" box?

The G7 BR2500 came in a few weeks ago so I really haven't had time to play with it and work out any possible kinks. Went out last week to re-zero my 30-06 & 6.5 Creedmore, get accurate chronograph readings on MV's for both riffles and loads and enter that data into the G7. So far so good!

Zeroing both riffles at 330 yds and testing those zeros at 450 yds has given accurate bullet drops with the G7. Just wish it would read humidity to give a better picture of air density. Used my Weather Flow for wind and humidity. To give a full ballistic calculation it would also be nice to be able to add ammo temps as well. Some phone apps have this feature and have been very accurate on bullet drop and windage.

The point, for me, in purchasing this range finder was to eliminate the need for multiple devices to range and calculate drop and windage as well as a back up to my D.O.P.E cards. Just range, get hold overs, add in wind then shoot. K.I.S.S.

Now that I have the data entered into the G7 I will get a better feel for what it can do when I get some longer range shooting it. Curious to see how well it does at 800 - 1200yrds. Looking forward to it!

I had my eye on the Sig Sauer Kilo 2000 but a friend suggested the Leupold at lesser price. Laid my hands on one to test out and liked the reticle design (with the option to switch reticles) over the Sig. I also like the fact of the internal ballistics and wind drift, although very crude if hand loading. So, I bought one. Testing it out on a shooting trip to the N. Georgia mountains in which my max range is 450 yards, I found the ballistics to only be off my drop chart by only .1 to .3 MOA. The method of finding your ballistics in the manual is a good starting point but I went through the ballistic options until I found one that best matched my drop chart.
I then took it to the coast where I do sea kayak shooting trips. I wanted to see what my range would be in an environment where there is only marsh grass, trees and shell covered beach. I was surprised to get ranges out to 1300 and 1400 yards on trees, 945 on marsh grass and 1100 on a sand bar. But, here is the rub, it took quite some time to get those hits on the finder and the sun has to be low on the horizon with the trees being very well lit. AND, the finder MUST be held very steady. Many times I used another tree to brace on to hold the finder steady. Even using the hand rail on a dock at one point.
I was also able to get ranges off trees and a shaded cliff bank at 1050 yards very quickly and just holding the range finder in the normal fashion.
For the longer ranges the range finder has to be in scan mode, holding
