I'm looking to buy a new rangefinder. I have a Nikon Rifle Hunter 550 I bought maybe 8 years ago. It still works but the rubber on the exterior of the unit has turned into a gooey mushy mess. It's like it was dipped into a solvent or something. I have a Cannon SLR that has the same problem with the rubber on it. I'm not sure exactly when the rubber morphed into the mess that it is today. I haven't used this thing in 3 or 4 years.
My question is whether anyone knows if the major rangefinder manufacturers are still using whatever kind of rubber is on my Nikon and Cannon units? I'm looking at Nikon, Vortex, and Leupold units right now. I'd like to get something that will range out to 1200 yards reliably. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks in advance for any advise given.
