Halo Optics has announced its new XL600 laser rangefinder, which provides quick ranging out to 600 yards with +/- 1-yard accuracy. Versatile 6x magnification provides bright, clear viewing and fast target acquisition, while an easy-to-read internal LCD displays the reticle, battery status, mode setting, numerical display and unit of measure, which is selectable by yards or meters.

The Halo XL600 laser rangefinder operates in dual modes; standard mode provides a single precise distance reading with one push of the button, while scan mode enables users to quickly range multiple targets without having to reactivate the laser for each target. The company’s proprietary Angle Intelligence technology automatically detects and compensates for slope in both mode settings, providing users with an accurate, "shoots like" reading, regardless of topography.

The XL600's durable and water-resistant housing is built to hold up to tough hunting conditions while providing a comfortable and ergonomically designed grip for easy handling.

Technical Specifications
• Maximum of 600 yards to reflective target
• 6x magnification
• Angle Intelligence technology calculates true horizontal distance to target at any elevation
• Scan mode locks in multiple targets at different yardages
• Precise to +/- 1 yard
• Water-resistant
• 1-year warranty
• Powered by one CR2 lithium ion battery (included)

The XL600 has a retail price of $119.99. For more information, visit halooptics.com.
