Rangefinder shows bluetooth but does not connect to the scope - SIG SAUER Sierra6BDX 2-12x40mm Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Digital Second Focal Plane w/Kilo1600BDX 6x22mm Rangefinder

I have complained before that the rangefinder is hard to use in that its 4” dimension is hard to hold on target and that you often get secondary undesired readings because it is so quick to range a target. I made an extreme effort to eliminate this and identify range & )Blue tooth connection on each shot, but today w 10 shots from 100/300/400 yds, in 10 shots I had 3 times that the rangefinder indicated a Bluetooth connection and did not communicate with the scope. As I said I was on a range w known distances and the failure to change elevations in the scope was obvious. The Rangefinder had the range right. One of the occasions was a double fault (2 times in succession). The scope showed the previous elevation and the light on the scope was steady/on. The third ranging was the charm and all was well. Later the same thing happened again, making it three times.

I Indicated that I would not recommend it to someone, but I am fascinated w the concept and believe/hope the tech issues will be resolved, but I would have to explain the the problems to anyone asking about the Combo. At this point I will only us the scope on the shooting range as I use 2 rifles to get comfortable with using the shooting solution of the rangefinder to adjust elevation/wind age on the conventional scope.

I had a discussion w another person today who has a BDX w the same issues. Like me he has several rifles and is ‘playing” w this Combo.
