Halo Optics has announced the launch of its new Halo XRT, a 500-yard laser rangefinder that's designed to be both reliable and easy on the hunter's wallet.

The Halo XRT shares the same features as many of the company's optics: a 6x magnification, a clear reticle with a target box in the center and a digital display of the distance. It offers both standard and scans modes. In the standard mode, when the targeting box is on a game animal, a push of the button will give the hunter a precise distance. In scan mode, hunters can hold the button down to track a moving animal or quickly get distance readings on multiple animals.

Technical Specifications:

• Maximum of 500 yards to reflective target
• 6x Magnification
• Scan Mode allows for constant ranging
• Precise to +/- 1 yard
• Water Resistant
• 1-year warranty
• Uses 1 CR2 Lithium Ion battery (not included)
• Durable Nylon case (Included)

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
