Nikon's proven line of rangefinders gets an added boost with the RifleHunter 1000. This fast, accurate rangefinder features Nikon's new Active Brightness Control Viewfinder, an innovative technology allowing fast reads against virtually any background during the toughest lighting conditions.

In brighter conditions, the rangefinder will display the newly-designed LCD, which provides suitable contrast and readability against a variety of backgrounds, together with enhanced light transmission. In darker conditions, the rangefinder automatically turns on the orange LED illumination to the liquid crystal characters for optimum visibility, adjusting brightness as needed for appropriate contrast.

A 28% larger ocular and 23% wider field of view from prior models allows you to quickly find your target, while a clean, uncluttered display shows range out to 1,000 yards. The field-proven ID technology calculates for any shot angle up to �89 degrees. Nikon's Tru-Target mode allows the user to choose between two settings, First Target Priority or Distant Target Priority modes. First Target mode makes ranging lone animals in unobstructed situations a snap--the rangefinder measures the distance to the first target hit by the laser, even small twigs, while Distant Target mode is designed for situations where ranging animals through brush or other impediments is necessary.

The rangefinder additionally boasts Nikon's legendary multicoated optics, water- and fog-proof rugged durability, and pocket-sized portability.
