“A quality laser rangefinder is one of the most important conservation tools hunters can carry into the field,” says Plano Synergy Vice President of Marketing, Pete Angle, who is a dedicated and experienced hunter, himself. “We have a responsibility to the animals we pursue to make a clean shot, and that responsibility begins with knowing the true range of any animal we set our sights on.”

Halo’s NEW XL450 Laser Rangefinder is packed with high-end performance features at a price that puts it within reach of nearly any hunter.

Delivering accuracy to +/- one yard, the Halo XL450 provides fast ranging out to 450 yards – plenty of distance for all but the most extreme hunting situations. Versatile 6x magnification provides bright, clear viewing, while an easy-to-read internal LCD displays the reticle, battery status, mode setting, numerical display and unit of measure, which is selectable by yards or meters.

The Halo XL450 Laser Rangefinder operates in dual modes. Standard mode provides a single precise distance reading with one push of the button, while Scan modeenables users to quickly range multiple targets without having to reactivate the laser for each target. AITM (Angle Intelligence) Technology automatically detects and compensates for slope in both mode settings, providing users with an accurate, “shoots like” reading regardless of topography.

The XL450’s durable and water resistant housing is built to hold up to tough hunting conditions while providing a comfortable and ergonomically correct grip for easy handling.

But once that position has been earned, other variables come into play. The bond between hunter and weapon will be tested. At this point, those who have practiced shooting from different positions and have complete knowledge of the particular ballistics of their specific weapon/projectile combination have the best chance at taking down their trophy. But one key variable remains: What’s the distance to my target?

At go time, even the most practiced marksman possessing infallible ballistic knowledge will fail to hit his or her mark if they misjudge the distance to the animal.

Don’t take chances. A high performance laser rangefinder like Halo’s NEW XRAY 800 (Model No. ZIR8X) will make those final few seconds of the hunt worry-free, allowing hunters to close the deal with a confident and clean shot.

The NEW Halo XRAY 800 Laser Rangefinder is a precise and finely engineered tool that will aid in conservation and contribute to the success of many hunts over many seasons – for an equally fine price that easily fits within most hunters’ budgets.

Delivering accuracy to +/- one yard, the Halo XRAY 800 provides impressive ranging out to a maximum of 800 yards – plenty of distance for any hunting situation. Versatile 6x magnification provides bright, clear images in a range of lighting conditions, while an updated and easy-to-read display with Dusk / Dawn mode shows battery status, mode setting, numerical display and unit of measure, which is selectable by yards or meters.

Dual operating modes allow users of the new Halo XRAY 800 to range targets in two ways. Standard mode provides a precise distance reading with a single push of the button, while Scan mode enables users to quickly range multiple targets without having to reactivate the laser for each target. AITM (Angle Intelligence) Technology automatically detects and compensates for slope in both mode settings, providing an accurate, “shoots like” distance reading, regardless of changes in elevation between user and target.

The compact XRAY 800’s ruggedized and water resistant housing is both durable and functional. Its comfortable and ergonomically correct grip extends over the lens to minimize glare while increasing surface area for more reliable handling. A nylon strap and protective case are included.

No matter how many years you hunt, your heart rate still picks up at the sight of antlers.

While that thrill is what all hunters live for, and it can also be our biggest source of frustration. It’s amazing how our brains and motor skills go a little haywire at the sight of a big rack. The last thing you need in that situation is a rangefinder with a cluttered display full of multiple sets of numbers that add to the confusion.

Halo XRAY rangefinders provide a clear, simple-to-read display that removes all doubt about shot distance. The yardage you see is what you need to aim for – holding steady is up to you.

Both the XRAY Z9X and Z6X have all the features hunters look for in a quality rangefinder without any of the confusion. AI Technology accounts for slope to target, removing guesswork about how gravity will affect steep-angle shots.

Scan mode allows constant ranging, a helpful feature when your trophy is on the move, and 6x magnification aids in picking out details about the target. XRAY rangefinders are accurate to +/- 1 yard, and the water-resistant body is built to withstand the toughest hunting conditions. The Z6X ranges to 600 and is perfect for almost every hunting situation in the Eastern U.S, while the Z9X ranges to 900 yards is great for Western hunts or those who enjoy long-distance shooting.

Both are covered by a one-year warranty and come with a carrying case.
