What do you consider the Gen 3 Razor of Rangefinding Binos? Specifically with PRS/NRL in mind.

In range finding binos, the Sig Kilo 10 K gen 2 is my choice. The optics are a lot better, better clarity and less blue tint, than the gen 1. The laser is excellent as is the onboard AB Elite and linking with other AB devices. The buttons and menus are pretty easy to use, and it’s the only rangefinding bino where you can adjust the LED reticle to closely match the actual alignment of the laser

is AB needed if you already have other products with AB elite?

I know some sig offerings have the AB ultralight, so you can at least connect. I assume Fury non-ab just will give you a range and you'd have to manually put in the number.

I am looking too, just don't know what to get. I wouldn't mind a used Fury 5000 but I can't swing the AB one. the non ab is expensive enough...
 
If you don't need full AB and want to stay under $1K Sig Kilo6HDX gen 2 10x42 is better than Fury 5K HD Gen 2. I compared them side by side. Sig ranges faster and has better glass. Also comes with AB lite.
I just contacted Vortex and apparently the 5000 HD AB is also discontinued.... Probably will go with Sig. I could use the AB lite just to connect to my garmin Tactix 8
 
I have Sig 3ks that Bluetooth to my kestrel and that’s solely what I use. Very reliable system. The 6ks should work the same. The vortex’s are good, but slower at ranging and providing data than the sigs. The 10k Gen 2 or the vectronix you can go wrong with. The revics work quite well, but don’t integrate AB. They use their own software that is pretty good.

Another vote for the Sig 10K Gen 2. The vortex is WAY slower at calculations (specifically the AB models). Wouldn't even consider the geo ballistics model in today's environment.
Every now and then, you'll see sig certs pop up in the PX here. Those certs will work for the 10Ks.

How are you adjusting the laser? I didn't realize you could do this and combed through the manual and didn't see it mentioned unless I skipped over it.
