Product description
Discover the Vortex Triumph HD 850 Laser Rangefinder: Precision Ranging for Every Hunt
Are you on the hunt for a reliable laser rangefinder that combines speed, accuracy, and rugged build for bow hunting or rifle hunting? The Vortex Triumph HD 850 Laser Rangefinder is your go-to solution, engineered by Vortex Optics for hunters who demand angle-compensated ranging in diverse terrains—from dense thickets to wide-open fields. This compact hunting rangefinder excels at delivering instant yardage for ethical shots, whether you're stalking deer at dawn or judging distance through brush. With its HD optical system and versatile modes, the Triumph HD 850 ensures you get the critical data needed for short blood trails and unforgettable success stories. As a top pick in waterproof laser rangefinders and budget-friendly hunting optics, it's optimised for low-light performance and all-weather reliability, making it essential gear for deer season or any pursuit.
Why the Vortex Triumph HD 850 Stands Out in the Field
The Triumph HD 850 rangefinder redefines simplicity in laser range finders for hunting, offering modes tailored to real-world challenges. Switch between Horizontal Component Distance (HCD) for slope-adjusted shots—perfect for bowhunters on hilly terrain—and Line of Sight (LOS) for straightforward measurements. The scan feature lets you pan across landscapes for continuous readings, ideal for spotting game movement. Target modes like Normal, First (for close-range targets amid clutter), and Last (for distant objects behind obstacles) eliminate guesswork, whether you're ranging a whitetail through timber or a coyote across a ridge.
Built tough for the outdoors, this shockproof rangefinder weighs just 4.6 oz. and measures a pocket-friendly 3.8" x 3.1" x 1.4", so it slips easily into your pack or vest. The soft-touch exterior provides a secure grip even with gloves or in rain, while the black LCD display shines in bright sunlight for quick reads. Thanks to fully multi-coated lenses and the HD optical system, you'll enjoy edge-to-edge sharpness, reduced chromatic aberration, and superior light transmission—crucial for dawn-to-dusk hunts. Plus, it's fully waterproof and shockproof, ready to endure downpours, drops, and the rigours of the backcountry. Ranging formats in yards or meters add flexibility for global adventurers.
Hunters praise the Triumph HD 850 for its ethical edge: fast acquisition up to 850 yards on reflective targets, 500 yards on trees, and 350 yards on deer, with ±0.5-yard accuracy at 100 yards. Whether you're a rifle shooter dialling in long-range holds or an archer compensating for angles, this angle-compensated laser rangefinder delivers the shoot-to range you need without the bulk or complexity of premium models.

HCD Corrected Shoot-To Range: Angle Compensation Done Right
Central to the Vortex Triumph HD 850 laser rangefinder is its HCD (Horizontal Component Distance) technology, which calculates the true horizontal distance by factoring in slope angles up to ±89°. This angle-compensated ranging is a game-changer for bow hunting rangefinders, preventing over- or under-estimation on hillsides that could mean the difference between a clean hit and a miss. The display shows the corrected shoot-to range alongside LOS for quick reference, ensuring rifle hunters can dial turrets accurately and archers adjust pins on the fly. Paired with target modes, it cuts through interference from brush or branches, providing the farthest or closest read as needed—essential for predator hunting or big game stalks.
What's Included: Ready-to-Hunt Essentials
The Triumph HD 850 package equips you for immediate action with hunter-focused accessories:
- Soft Carry Case: Protects against bumps during transport.
- Wrist Lanyard: Keeps your laser rangefinder secure on the move.
- Lens Cloth: Maintains crystal-clear optics.
- CR2 Battery: Powers up out of the box for instant ranging.
This thoughtful kit highlights why the Vortex Triumph series is beloved in the optics community for seamless integration into your hunting gear list.
Hunters' Take: Reliability That Delivers
Feedback from the field echoes the Triumph HD 850's reputation as a best value laser rangefinder for 2025.
