The Nikon Buckmaster Laser 600 is a compact, literally shirt pocket size, rangefinder. Included with a new Laser 600 is a neck strap, a soft nylon case with a handy belt loop on the back, instruction manual, warrantee (one year on materials and labor), and a long-life CR2 lithium battery.

This unit features a Dach-prism monocular with multi-coated optics and 6x magnification. It uses a large, easy to read, LCD display. The display, when activated, shows a crosshair reticle for targeting, meter or yard mode designations, and a battery indicator. There are Power and Mode buttons on top of the unit where they are easy to press while using the rangefinder one-handed. The unit supplied for review was an overall charcoal black color; a camo finish version is also available.

The Nikon Laser 600 is a relatively simple unit to operate, excellent for use in the field. Here are its key features as listed in the owner's manual:

Distance Measurement Display - half yards or meters at less than 100, 1 yard or meter at distances over 100.
Easy to aim 6x optical system.
Water and dust resistant.
Invisible/Eyesafe FDA class 1 laser
8-second results display.
Compact, ergonomic design.
Automatic shut-off after 8 seconds unattended.
Default to "last use" settings.
10-second continuous measuring function.
Focusing eyepiece--diopter adjustment.
Measuring range - 10 meters/11 yards to 546 meters/600 yards.

Not mentioned among the above key features is one that I feel is of great importance: excellent optics. You can focus this unit to your eye, and the views it provides when focused are sharp and clear, edge to edge. I had no problem focusing to my unaided eye, or when wearing prescription glasses.

The eye relief was not sufficient to allow me to see the entire field of view when wearing glasses. However, I could see the display area and had no difficulty measuring distances. The eyepiece is rubber covered to protect eyeglasses from scratches.

The Laser 600 is easy to use. Press the power button once and the crosshair reticle appears. Press again and the unit measures the distance to the target and displays it digitally. (If the Laser 600 cannot measure the distance, three horizontal dashes "---" will appear.) Hold the power button down for continuous mode, in which you can move from target to target, reading the distance to each. The unit turns itself off after 8 seconds of inactivity. After you remove your finger from the power button the last distance measured remains displayed until the unit turns off.

To select between yards and meters, press and hold the "Mode" button for longer than 1.5 seconds, until the display changes. That is really all there is to operating the Laser 600.

Like any device, the Nikon Laser 600 has limitations that may result in inaccuracy or failure. Among those listed in the owner's manual are:

Slender or small target.
Target has diffusing reflecting surface.
Target does not reflect laser beam (glass, mirror, etc.).
Black target.
Target has pronounced depth.
In rain, fog, or snow.
Target measured through glass.
Reflective surface measured from diagonal direction.
Moving target.
Obstacle moving in front of the target.
When targeting the surface of water.

Most of these limitations are of little concern to hunters. The biggest limitation from the hunter's point of view is that the unit does not have a "rain" mode.

In regards to the water resistance of the Laser 600, drops of water will not harm the unit. But it is not waterproof. Do not submerge it or hold it under running water. And the instruction manual advises not to adjust moveable parts--the eyepiece--in wet conditions.
