My personal recommendation would be Nikon. I have the Rifle Hunter 550. Although the one you are considering does not look like a bad deal. It just dont have angle compensation.

I have the Leica 1200 scan. It cost more than most range finders, but Leicas are built well. Leica offers a more compact LRF than my 1200. What is the max distance you are planning on ranging? That will help determine which LRF is right for you.

400-500 yards at most

One of the less expensive models will work for you...I hear the Nikons are decent LRF. Not sure of hte price since I already have my LRF.
