Bushnell LA1500AD Broadhead Laser 6x25mm 1500 yds Max Distance, Green Aluminum

The Bushnell LA1500AD Broadhead laser rangefinder is built for serious archers who need reliable distance readings in unpredictable field conditions. Developed in partnership with world-record-holding archer Tim Gillingham, this 6x25mm rangefinder solves a real problem: most rangefinders struggle when target reflectivity and lighting shift. Whether you're ranging a black boar target at dawn, a white reflective face at dusk, or switching between paper and foam between shots, the Broadhead delivers consistent accuracy. That consistency matters when you're dialing yardage or making the shot count, whether you're hunting, competing on the circuit, or practicing at distance.

The Broadhead's Full Spectrum Ranging System uses precision optics and intelligent software to achieve ±0.3 yard accuracy out to 150 yards and ranges to a maximum distance of 1500 yards. The optical system features an all-glass design with Ultrawide Band Coating—technology that maintains color fidelity across the UV-to-visible spectrum so you can identify your target quickly and accurately. The glass is also treated with EXO Barrier coating to shed rain and dust, keeping your sight picture clear in poor weather when visibility matters most. All-glass optics also deliver what Bushnell calls 2x brighter imaging, giving you a clearer sight picture than conventional designs when light is low.

One smart feature is the ActivSync reticle, which automatically transitions from a black reticle in low light to an illuminated red reticle as conditions brighten—no manual switching required. You get the right reticle for the moment without fumbling with settings. The rangefinder is housed in a rugged green aluminum body built to handle field use, and the 6x magnification and 25mm objective strike a practical balance between light gathering and portability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Broadhead rangefinder work on different target types and colors?

Yes. The Full Spectrum Ranging System is specifically designed to range targets consistently regardless of reflectivity—black boar targets, white reflective faces, paper, foam, and other materials all return reliable distances. The Ultrawide Band Coating helps the optics maintain true color identification across the light spectrum, so you get the same reading whether you switch targets or shoot in changing light.

How accurate is this rangefinder at typical hunting and competition distances?

The Broadhead delivers ±0.3 yard accuracy out to 150 yards, which covers the vast majority of archery hunting and competitive scenarios. It ranges targets out to 1500 yards maximum distance for extended-range applications.

What does the ActivSync reticle do?

ActivSync automatically switches your reticle between a black reticle in low light and an illuminated red reticle when brightness increases. You don't have to manually choose between the two—the rangefinder adapts to your lighting conditions so you always have the optimal reticle visible.

How does this rangefinder perform in poor weather?

The EXO Barrier coating on the glass repels water and dust, and the 2x brighter imaging helps you maintain a clear sight picture in rain and dusty conditions. The rangefinder is built to deliver consistent performance when visibility is compromised.
