Legacy Reviewer's Review of Nikon Forestry 550 Laser Rangefinder 8371

This device is very useful for timber cruising. It will measure plot radius and merchantable tree heights very accurately. If you can hit any point on the tree, it will calculate the horizontal distance. Although this device will not measure horizontal distances less than 33 feet, you can "trick it" by measuring the height on a tree 33 feet+, and the device will calculate distances less than 33 feet. Some bark colors do not reflect the laser beam very well, and twigs and branches sometimes offer interference (as with any laser device). For grins I have measured distances out to 800+ feet. Handy size, rugged, and weatherproof.
Pros: Very useful for timber cruising.
Cons: Won't measure less than about 33 feet horizontal distance.
