@6:22 "I can't help but feel I brought this on us... I said the shoes. I was trying to be funny." Had me DYING over here. Love y'all's comedy podcast that also taught me about rangefinders.
The viper with the cr123 battery made the choice easy.
The new display, optics, and readout speeds are a fantastic upgrade over the previous models. Value packed units for sure
Being a retired LE instructor, armorer, & long gun shooter, we were trained and required to do yard estimations back in the day before rangefinders. Obviously, as ranges lengthen, it gets tougher & tougher. Plus, if you don't do it everyday, it gets more difficult. After last years hunt and overestimating the distance on a buck, I finally broke down and bit the bullet and just bought the Crossfire HD they're showcasing here. Btw, I did get the buck, just hit a bit high........I was off about 50 yds guessing at 400 on a rolling field.....he was 345. I love the podcasts and enjoy the banter......Ryan is a vast wealth of knowledge.......impressive.
Super excited for the Viper HD
Love the new products but y’all said at 32:30 the diamond back is 299.. online y’all got it listed at 449.. guess inflation hit real quick 😂 but can’t wait to buy one here soon diamond back or viper not sure yet which on for prs/ MTN hunting
I really like the concept of renaming the new lineup. So it fits with the Scopes / Bino names. Your right, people that run a Crossfire, Diamond Back, Viper or Razor will automatically choose what they already run. I know that's what I would do.
I just upgraded to the Razor HD4000 a few weeks ago. From the Ranger. I'm blown away with quality and performance.
Thank you Vortex for producing great products. And for having multiple devices for everyone to choose from.
After watching the entire Podcast now. I really wish the Viper HD3000 was available a few weeks ago when I bought the HD4000. It seems perfect. The Battery and Case is what I'm Jelly about.
I have the old 1800. Love the red display. I just wish there was a separate button to adjust the display brightness without going through the menu.
I just got the crossfire hd 1400 and it's amazing for the money it's pretty dead on to advertisements and the glass is so good and the eye relief is amazing I can use it with my glasses still on all in all so far worth every penny
.458socom review 🙏
Shoe analogy totally works. Different features. Dance shoes, cycling shoes, soccer cleats, running shoes, cowboy boots, hiking boots, mountain boots, rain boots etc.
Debating between the new Viper and the Razor for the rangefinder. They seem pretty comparable. Is the $200 that different for 200 yards more of deer target? Is the Razor better glass and computing ability?
Cost , some of us can’t buy the vipers.
I had the Ranger 1300 . gone MIA. So, I just got the Crossfilre HD 1400. For my hunting, I will need more. Especially needing the last mode because I am hunting through thick vegetation on public land.
All I need now to do a full switch vortex is a Spotting scope in the viper $$ range with an etched reticle like a Horus 32 for spotting and giving second round impact feed back.
We do have a reticle eyepiece for the Viper 20-60x85 spotting scopes!
@@VortexNation yeah found that on the site today. I'm looking for a spotting scope like Bushnell's Elite 8-40 because it has the big box of marks for giving super accurate feed back. I would buy one but I have a VIPER PST GEN II 5x25 FFP and I like your glass better. Hopefully one day I can have matching spotting scope with the reticle I'm looking for. After this I'm defiantly ordering the new Viper Range finder!
@@JustinJFilson Right on! Well we can certainly pass along your feedback to our product development team, Justin! Thanks for being a part of Vortex Nation and let us know how you like that Viper when you get a chance to put it to the test!
Lmao, I knew you were going to say "can't hear the range finder, can you Clark?"
Major miss not letting the viper communicate with a kestral
Wow I was about to buy the ranger 1000 glad I waited looking into the viper 3000 now. Btw would a white metal gong be considered highly reflectove?
Yes it would!
Main question I have is can these do other units like meters? Someone handed me a Vortex rangefinder to take with me once to try out. I pulled it once when needed and was like wtf is yds. I don’t use yards. Also not in USA. I looked for a quick way to switch units, didn’t figure it out in the few seconds I had.
Is that the core logo hoodie?
I have the fury hd with the ranger finder in it. Best thing I upgraded to
Guys, you have got to update the webpage. I went there to get more info and you still have the old rangefinders listed. I really want to get more info on the Viper.
loved the video, but a question if you please.? Will you be doing a 10-minute talk on the Wilson Combat .300 HAM'R???
Looking at buying my first "quality"rangefinder and am between the diamondback and the viper I don't mind going up with the price as long as the value is there what say you vortex
I just upgraded to the Razor HD4000. It is incredible. I got is 3 weeks ago. Before they dropped the new lineup. I'm sure the Viper HD3000 is just as good. They look to be built on the same platform/Design
Sorry Guys. No Bluetooth Link to send data to a Kestrel. Not an option for me.
Are these rangefinders fully water/fogproof?
Will there be any that can link to a kestrel?
Any plans to offer AB on any of the monocular versions? Offer BT compatibility between a monocular RF & a Kestrel???
TIA

Wish I had known about the new products 2 months ago...would have waited and bought the new Crossfire.
If you want the Crossfire instead of what you have you can always sell and upgrade!
Is there any danger looking into the laser directly? I'm thinking kids looking into it directly. I know it's invisible and all but it's still on the electromagnetic spectrum.
Does the Razor come with that same case too?
They all come with the same case
Who doesn't have park shoes c'mon lol
Nice to hear the specs.
Lot of talk little info over all.
Hey Mark, Question for you? What area of Wa. are you from. And do you visit often? Im pretty sure I seen you in a local Sporting good store recently. I almost asked If it was you. But you were in the vehicle section. And new it couldn't have been you cause that's Jim's Thing! LOL
From the west side. Haven't been back in a while though. Possible you saw me buying an elk tag last October?
Im surprised Ryan seems like a multi shoe man.
I hunt in northface boots. More like hiking shoes. In arkansas they perform well. I also don't need a range finder here. Just an overbore and hungry eyes.
☝🏻 What about doing a 10 Min on ranging with a ffp mil reticle ?
10 minute talk cartridge suggestion
300 savage
Basically a 308 win before its time
8mm mauser train still chugging
Would all three range a target lets say 400yds are would they very a yd are so
First!
