INTRODUCTION
Your CABELA’S VLR is a very compact advanced laser rangefinder. Using Digital Technology and
measuring a mere 1.5x4x2.75 inches and weighing 6.8 ounces, the CABELA’S VLR delivers superb and
accurate range performance to +/- one yard. Range to a deer as far as 300 yards out or to a tree at 570
yards away for a reference point. The unique shape and palm size allows outdoor enthusiasts to easily
grip the rangefinder with a single hand and drop it into a pocket when not in use.
The rugged and weather resistant CABELA’S VLR features popular “Scan” and “>150” modes and includes
a carrying case. Scan mode provides continuous distance measurements as multiple targets in the field of
view are scanned. The “>150” mode only captures distance measurements of objects greater than 150
yards away, enabling distance measurement through foreground clutter like brush and branches.
The CABELA’S VLR emits invisible, eye-safe, infrared energy pulses. Sophisticated digital technology and
a high-speed clock are used to instantaneously calculate distances, by measuring the time it takes for each
pulse to travel from the rangefinder, to the target, and back.
The ranging accuracy of the CABELA’S VLR is plus or minus one yard / meter under most circumstances.
The maximum range of the instrument depends on the reflectivity of the target. The maximum distance
for most objects is 570 yards / 521 meters while for highly reflective objects the maximum is 700
yards / 640 meters. Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances depending on the
