Nikon has expanded its laser rangefinder line with the addition of its new Prostaff 7i. The pocket-sized rangefinder incorporates the company's ID (incline/decline) Technology and is designed to provide precision, speed and consistency out to 1,300 yards.

Nikon says that ProStaff 7i readings are accurate to +/- .5 yard at 600 yards or less, to +/- 1 yard from 600 yards to less than 1000 yards, and to +/- 1.5 yards at 1000 yards and over. The rangefinder will display ranges in .1-yard increments. It features the company's Hyper Read technology, which rapidly displays distance readings, regardless of how far away a target may be.  

The ID technology has become a regular addition to all of Nikon's rangefinders, and rightfully so, given its ability to present a proper horizontal distance based on incline or decline shooting angles. Try-Target Technology, which allows users to toggle between ranging modes with little effort, is also included. 

The new Prostaff 7i will retail for $299.95. It features a waterproof design, for maximum durability.

Know How: Understanding and Obtaining a Cold-Bore Zero

Have you ever spent hours at the range zeroing a rifle only to learn it is nowhere near center when you go to confirm it at camp? Many attribute this malady to scope shift during travel, and that can sometimes be the case. However, far more often this point-of-impact change can be attributed to the way we zeroed back home.
