Product description

Sonora HD 1800 Rangefinder

When your hunt could bring anything from close-range deer to distant targets more than 1,000 yards away, your rangefinder needs the reach, accuracy, and durability to handle whatever the day demands. Three target modes. Two ranging modes. Tripod adaptable. Clear glass and 6x magnification balance a wide field of view and precise target ranging, ensuring you can spot and range even the smallest details and distant targets.

Target Mode Selection

Normal Mode

The Sonora HD 1800 comes preset to Normal Mode. This is the standard mode providing the target’s range with the strongest range result. Normal Mode is the recommended target mode for most situations.

First Mode

This mode displays the closest distance when ranging. It is ideal for ranging a smaller target in front of other larger or more reflective objects.

Last Mode

This mode displays the farthest distance when ranging. It isideal for ranging a specific target behind a group of objects, such as rocks, trees, brush, etc.

Ranging & Ranging Mode Selection

Scan

Activate the Scan feature by pressing and holding the “Measure” button. Keeping the button depressed will continuously measure as you pan back and forth across the target objects. “Scan” will flash in the upper right-hand corner of the display while scanning.

HCD Mode

The Horizontal Component Distance (HCD) range display is intended to be your primary mode, used for most rifle and archery shooting applications. The yardage number displayed is the critical horizontal component distance. The displayed HCD yardage is corrected for shot angle and needs no extra user input; shooters simply use the appropriate level ground drop for the range displayed. Archers use the appropriate level ground sight pin for the range displayed.

LOS Mode

The Line of Sight (LOS) Mode is intended for users who are using slope correcting ballistic drop data cards, ballistic cell phone applications, or other devices with ballistic programs and who are shooting at distances beyond 500 yards and with slopes greater than 15 degrees.

To use, simply input the LOS range number into the electronic device or use the LOS range when referencing ballistic drop cards with slope correction.
