Using a 300-foot tape, I found my Sig Kilo 2200 is off by almost 3% at 50 and 100 yards. It's off 6% at ten yards. I replicated the 50- and 100-yard tests multiple times in two directions. The short test was indoors. I took care to insure line of laser was parallel to line of measurement and the tape was on flat ground. Battery tests good.
Has anyone else bothered to verify the accuracy of their rangefinder? Not interested in a "which LRF is better" bicker. Just curious. The manual says the Kilo 2200 should be accurate to less than 4 inches out to 100 yards; mine is more like:
Has anyone else bothered to verify the accuracy of their rangefinder? Not interested in a "which LRF is better" bicker. Just curious. The manual says the Kilo 2200 should be accurate to less than 4 inches out to 100 yards; mine is more like:
- Tape says 50 yards, LRF says 48.7 yards
- Tape says 100 yards, LRF says 97.2 yards
- Tape says 10 yards, LRF says 9.4 yards
- Back at range today. At 200 yards or more, its readings match my buddy's LRF which has been verified accurate at those ranges. At 100 yards, his was very close to mine. He's never checked it against a tape at closer ranges.
- Talked with Sig support. I was told that the Kilo 2200 wasn't really designed for under-100-yard precision. We talked about the fact that the manual states accuracy within +/- 4" under 100 yards... but my buddy's was "off" at short range too... how likely is it that I'm going to see any difference with a different unit if the one I have is accurate at 200+ yards? I have the direct number of the service rep I spoke with if I decide to chase this anymore, and I probably won't.
