Our take on the Bushnell R5 2000 AB Rangefinder

The Bushnell R5 2000 AB is a 6x laser rangefinder with Applied Ballistics software built in. It measures distance out to about 2,000 yards and uses the AB solver to give angle-compensated, ballistic-corrected ranges for rifle shooting. It is aimed at hunters and precision rifle shooters who want drop and wind solutions without a separate phone or Kestrel. Against simpler rangefinders it adds a real ballistic computer; against premium units it gives up some optical clarity and a few advanced environmental inputs.

Best forRifle hunters taking long shotsPrecision shooters who want ballistic solutions in the unitShooters who don't want to pair a phone or KestrelHunting in wet or snowy weather

Questions and answers

Does it work without a phone?
Yes. The Applied Ballistics solver runs inside the unit, so you get drop and wind holds without pairing a phone.
How far can it range?
Bushnell rates it to about 2,000 yards on reflective targets. Expect shorter readings on game and soft targets.
Is it good for bowhunting?
It works, but the 6x magnification and long-range focus suit rifle hunting better than close bow shots.
Can I load my own rifle data?
Yes. You enter bullet, velocity and sight-height data to build custom profiles for your loads.
Is it waterproof?
Yes, the body is sealed and rated waterproof for rain and wet conditions.
