Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 Laser Rangefinder Review

Welcome to this Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 Laser Rangefinder review! This could be the one for you if you are into golfing, rifle hunting or bowhunting. Those who have never used a device like this before might find themselves particularly fond of this product as it is incredibly simple to use. It comes with detailed instructions, but many people find that they don’t even need them.
 
It has a great range, is responsive and offers a wide variety of features. For everything this range finder offers, it is relatively low priced, so you won’t break your bank account completely. There are models twice or three times the price available that aren’t capable of doing as much. Please read on to get a better understanding of this unit, so that you can decide if it is an option for you or not. Thanks.

Package

Aside from the Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 itself, you will get a few cool additional items. There is a padded ballistic nylon case, along with a convenient lanyard. The case has a belt loop which makes it easy to take out on long trips. A CR2 battery is included as well, so you don’t have to spend the extra bucks to get started.

Features Of The Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 Laser Rangefinder

The technology of this unit delivers extremely quick and accurate target acquisition. It is accurate all the way down to plus or minus 0.5 yards up to 500 yards. Between 500 to 1,000 yards, it is accurate up to plus or minus one yard. After 1,000 yards, it is accurate up to plus or minus 2 yards. That’s true yardage, baby!
 
The measurement range of the Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 is 5 to 1,200 yards. Keep in mind, the advertised maximum range of 1,200 yards is only for highly reflective targets. A good rule of thumb is to divide the given ranges by 2, so deer might be doable up to 600 yards, if you got the gun and the skills. It measures in yards and meters.
 
One unique feature of this unit is the HyperScan mode. This mode allows you to scan targets at 4X / second, significantly improving the ranging performance, especially at far distances. The ranging distances are updated quickly in HyperScan mode, so once you release the range button, the last acquired distance will be displayed. This feature would be especially ideal to bowhunters and rifle hunters.
 
This model has a magnification of 4x with a 20mm objective lens with SpectraCoat anti-reflection coatings. The LCD display is not illuminated, and the lettering is all in black. This could become a problem in low light conditions, so it could be difficult to use this range finder in the early morning, evenings, in thick forests, and in rain or foggy conditions. If you plan to use it in those conditions, you should consider this before you make a purchase. Many of the other available models out there have this problem too, though.
 
If you’re looking for a compact model that’s easy to carry around all day, this is a good option for you. The armor will keep it safe in all weather conditions, be it rain or fog. Overall, the size dimensions are 2.9 x 3.9 x 1.4 inches. The total weight with the battery is around 5 ounces.
 
This one is able to compensate for angles. Angle modified range is great for hunters who may have targets that aren’t directly ahead of them. Imagine hunting down from a tree stand or a hill.
 
It is also water resistant, which means that you can use it in rainy or foggy weather conditions. Do not submerge it, though!

Uses Of The Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 Laser Rangefinder

Hunting/Bowhunting

The compact design of this unit makes it durable and easy to carry. This is good for hunters and bowhunters alike as nobody wants to carry around a bunch of heavy junk. The case prevents it from breaking if you accidentally drop it.

 
The Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 is super easy to use, with only two buttons, one for range and one for mode. It can be operated with one hand, which makes the whole hunting thing a lot easier.
 
We definitely recommend this model to both rifle hunters and bowhunters. It can measure impressive distances and compensate for angles, which is something we don’t see at this low price too often. If you are a bowhunter and don’t plan to ever need to range farther distances, you might be happier with a lower range model. Otherwise, the Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 will not disappoint.

Golfing

For golf players, this might be an option as well. It has no flag-locking technology integrated, but the Hyper Scan Mode makes it quite easy to target tiny moving flags or flag poles. Since it can range far distances, many people have reported it being a great option for golfing.

Price

For around $200, you get a reliable and durable range finder perfect for many different uses. It has features that models priced twice as much don’t offer, making it a great bargain.

Summary

The Sig Sauer 4×20 KILO850 Laser Rangefinder is a wonderful option for anyone who is looking to use a model like this for rifle hunting, bowhunting or golfing. It can reach impressive distances and has plenty of great features to offer.
 
This one will give you a lot of bang for your buck considering all its features that often can only be found in higher priced models.
 
Thanks for reading and shoot straight!
