Eighteen years of experience, eighteen years of expertise and eighteen years of uncompromising quality. The result: the newest member of Leica rangefinder family. Introducing the Rangemaster CRF 1600 with 7x magnification. With it, you can precisely measure distances from 10 m to approximately 1500 m (1600 yards), even in the harshest weather conditions. And all in less than 0.3 seconds. What further sets the Rangemaster CRF 1600 apart from the competition: its integrated ballistics computer with a range of different ballistics curves. Furthermore, its temperature and barometric-pressure meters give you additional confidence for a precise shot. This remarkable rangefinder is outstanding in terms of ergonomics, too. It is the only device in the premium segment that is held vertically, making it perfect for left-handers as well as right-handers. It sits comfortably in the palm of your hand and is easy to hold and carry, even when you're wearing gloves.

How the ballistic programme of the CRF 1600 works:
CRF 1600 - presetting
1. The rifle user selects yards or metres.
2. The rifle user selects one of 12 ballistic curves (refer to ammunition manufacturer's tables).
3. The rifle user enters the predetermined zeroed range.
USING THE CRF 1600
4. The rifle user aims and presses the measuring button.
5. The unit measures the shot distance, angle of departure, temperature and barometric pressure.
6. The unit calculates and displays the holdover correction for 100 metres.
FAST RETICLE ADJUSTMENT (FRA)
7. The rifle user transfers the value displayed to the riflescope.
8. The rifle is now zeroed at the measured distance. The ballistic programme performs the conversion for the rifle user: What correction for 100 metres corresponds to a zeroed shot at the measured distance?
FAQs
Question: My unit shows a holdover correction of 12 centimetres at 300 metres. According to my ammunition manufacturer, this should be 36 centimetres.
Answer: The construction of the click adjustment of the riflescope is designed to adjust the point of impact by 1 centimetre per click. 12 centimetres at 100 metres is the same as 36 centimetres at 300 metres. As you can see, the unit has already performed the conversion.
Question: Why do I have to enter the determined zeroing range for my rifle when using the CRF 1600?
Answer: The ballistic programme needs this value to calculate precise results. The ballistic curve shifts at different zeroing distances, for example 100 metres or MRD. If a rifle is zeroed in at 200 metres, the correction is correspondingly smaller for a distance of 300 metres. If the rifle were zeroed at 300 metres, no correction would have to be applied.
