Angle Range Compensation

The Legend® 1200 ARCis an advanced premium laser rangefinder featuring a built-in accelerometer-based inclinometer that digitally displays the exact angle from -90 to +90 degrees of elevation and is +/- 1.0 degree accurate.

The Bushnell® Legend 1200 ARC solves a problem hunters have been faced with for years. The problem: Bow and rifle hunters have struggled with extreme uphill and downhill angles because of how these angles alter true horizontal distance to your target. The Solution: ARC’s integrated inclinometer provides elevation angle to allow for distance compensation when targeting objects that are either uphill or downhill. This data is then combined with internal algorithmic ballistic formulas.

ARC (Angle Range Compensation) Modes

Bow Mode ( ): Displays line of sight distance, degree of elevation, and true horizontal distance from 5-99 yards/ meters and a maximum inclination of +/- 90°.

Rifle Mode ( ): Calculates and displays the amount of bullet drop, at the target in inches, centimeters or MOA. The amount of bullet drop is determined by the line of sight distance to the target, degree of elevation, along with the specific ballistic characteristics of the caliber and ammunition load. When you range your target, the line of sight, degree of elevation, and bullet-drop/holdover in inches, centimeters, or MOA will be displayed from 100 to 800 yards/meters with a maximum inclination of +/- 90°. One of eight ballistic groups (identified as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H) for center fire rifles and two ballistic groups (Identified as I and J) for Black Powder/Muzzleloaders can be selected by the user, with each formula representing a given combination of caliber and loads. The ballistic groups are selected by the user in the SET-UP menu.

Regular Mode ( ): This mode does not provide any degree of elevation or compensated distance, but instead, line of sight distance only.

The Bushnell 204100 and 204101 models are high-performance binoculars designed for outdoor enthusiasts who demand quality, durability, and exceptional optical performance. These models boast a range of features and advanced technologies that set them apart from competitors in the market.

One of the standout characteristics of the Bushnell 204100 and 204101 is their advanced optics. Both models are equipped with fully multi-coated lenses that enhance light transmission and provide bright, crisp images even in low-light conditions. The BaK-4 prisms used in these binoculars ensure maximum light reflection and minimal light loss, which contributes to sharper images and better color fidelity.

Durability is another hallmark feature of these models. The Bushnell 204100 and 204101 are built with a rugged, yet lightweight body that is both waterproof and fog-proof, thanks to the use of nitrogen purging. This means that these binoculars can withstand harsh weather conditions, making them ideal for birdwatching, hiking, sporting events, and other outdoor activities. The rubber armor coating provides a secure grip and additional protection against bumps and drops, ensuring that they can endure the rigors of outdoor use.

Another advantageous technology featured in the Bushnell 204100 and 204101 is the inclusion of a twist-up eyecup design. This feature allows users to adjust the eyecups to their preference, accommodating both eyeglass wearers and those who do not wear glasses, ultimately enhancing the overall viewing experience. The generous field of view provided by these binoculars also allows for easy tracking of moving subjects, whether it’s wildlife or athletes in action.

In terms of magnification, both models offer a variety of options that cater to different user needs. Ranging from compact 8x to powerful 10x magnification, these binoculars provide versatility for any situation. The objective lens diameters range from 32mm to 42mm, ensuring a balance between portability and light-gathering capability.

In summary, the Bushnell 204100 and 204101 binoculars combine superior optical quality, rugged construction, and user-friendly features, making them an excellent choice for anyone seeking reliable performance in the field. Whether you’re a seasoned naturalist or a casual observer, these models deliver exceptional value and functionality in a compact and durable package.
