I also have the 1000 ARC. It works well for both bow and rifle hunting.I can only speak for Bushnell so far. I first bought the 450 model. It ranges to 200 yards but can be +or- 5 yards of error. I upgraded to the 1000 arc for $199. It's more accurate and I have ranged deer at almost 600 yards. I've heard that sig kilos are great as well as vortex, but they are usually out of your price range
