Mine is a Nikon 440 and I couldn't ask for a better unit. About $200.00

I have the Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450 rangefinder, and it is all I need. I got mine for $120. At BPS they go on sale for $120 bran new.

depends on how much you want to spend. yo can find decent rangefinders at bass pro and other sporting good stores for anywhere from 89 to 150. I've seen bushnells sport go for 120 at bass pro and Academy. Some of the better rangefinder sell for 200-2000, Leupold, Zeiss and Swarovski if you have the cash to dish out fortop of the line.

I have had good service from my Nikon Monarch 800. It outperforms many of the cheaper units in a side by side comparison particularly in low light.

Nikon is good enough. The more range, the more bucks you spend. 440 has served me well for about 8 years.

Several of my hunting buddies have the Nikon 440 and have used them for several years. If you can't get the range with that RF, it's too far away to shoot at it! My wife bought that Nikon 800 for me at Christmas several years ago on sale at a terrific price. The salesman told her that it was the best one for the money. I probably would have saved the $100 bucks and bought a 440, which was what was on my wish list. She "saved" so much on the 800, she could not pass it up! LOL

Better is the enemy of good enough...

Amen to good enough! Some of my buddies have to go the biggest, best-est, most-est, etc. Usually I get as much or more in the way of shots and meat on the table as they do. Gotta laugh, sometimes.
