Absolutely the worst warranty service out there!!!
Purchased a 300i range finder last fall, tried to use it this fall and it doesnt work! Called, and was told to replace the battery! $23 later, still doesnt work! Called again and was told to send it in! Like all of us? I cant find the receipt!
Was hoping they could tell how old it was from serial number, but no! Now im out the range finder, price of battery and shipping cost! Guess from now on ill buy bushnell!!
