Since their debut about 25 years ago, hunting-oriented laser rangefinders have become almost an essential tool for any long-range shooter or hunter. In those 25 years, laser rangefinders have adapted to meet more demanding requirements for durability, protection against inclement weather, increased ranging distance, and other useful feature sets. The new Leupold RX-5000\u00a0TBR\/W is a rangefinder \u201cfor the modern hunter\u201d and uses the popular onX Hunt app along with onboard GPS technology to help hunters navigate and track their kills precisely.<\/p>\n
More from Leupold @ TFB:<\/strong><\/p>\n RX-5000 TBR\/W Lifestyle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n For years, the value of a rangefinder has been determined by its capacity to measure distance. The focus was on pushing boundaries and reaching farther. But now, we\u2019re stepping into a new era of rangefinding technology, where it\u2019s not just about how many miles you can range. In this new landscape, the\u00a0RX-5000 TBR\/W<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is leading the way for the modern hunter.<\/p>\n It combines an extremely accurate 5,000-yard ranging performance with the ability to drop location pins right to your phone using the\u00a0Leupold Control app<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and popular maps likeonX Hunt<\/a><\/strong>. So whether you\u2019re outlining the perfect approach for your next stalk, marking your game\u2019s exact location, or setting up a course of fire at the range, wayfinding powered by a rangefinder puts you in complete control.<\/p>\n Imagine being able to range a target and instantly have its location appear on your smartphone. This is now possible with the\u00a0RX-5000 TBR\/W<\/strong><\/a>\u2018s pinning feature and the\u00a0Leupold Control app<\/strong><\/a>. By aiming, ranging, and pinning, you can mark waypoints on digital mapping systems like\u00a0onX Hunt<\/strong><\/a>, Google Maps, and Apple Maps, simplifying tasks like scouting and backcountry navigation.<\/p>\n But before you can drop pins accurately, you\u2019ll need to calibrate the compass inside the RX-5000 TBR\/W. In fact, calibrating at the start of every outing is essential to prevent environmental factors from affecting your pins. Regardless of where you hunt, whether it\u2019s in the wide-open West or the hardwoods back East, you\u2019ll need to adjust to the magnetic field of each location.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The new Leupold RX-5000 is currently being listed for an MSRP of $699.99. This makes it one of the more affordable GPS-equipped laser rangefinders that also pair with the onX Hunt app. The onX Hunt app is useful not just for tracking kills with your laser rangefinder, but can also be an invaluable navigation tool when out hunting, or just finding a quiet place to camp.
