I had the opportunity to play around with my buddy's Vortex rangefinding binos this past weekend. Have any of ya'll used rangefinding binoculars before? What are your thoughts?

I use them for unknown-location/unknown-distance rifle matches.
Like all rangefinders, the quoted range is to a highly reflective surface, so over buy on that spec.
I like them for spotting during hunting, but since they tend to be in the 8x-12x range, their use for point counting at distance is a bit limited compared to a high power scope or spotter.

I don’t use them for bowhunting but for rifle hunting it’s a must have.

Depends on what you want them for. For archery and spot and stalk hunting, they are big an would be a pain compared to a range finder, especially when you have your bow in one hand, range finder in the other. For sitting in a blind or stand where you have a bit more freedom to move around, I would use them over a range finder.
