This is for the Archery hunters. I have spooked at least three Elk with the activation of a rangefinder. The leupold 600 and 750. The click of the activation button is clearly audible. I have a hearing deficit and did not know. All three bulls were within 40 yards and froze when I clicked the unit. Then fled. Not good. Now I take my wife (ears like an Elk?) with me when shopping for them. She can clearly hear them. So far the Leica seems the quietest but none are totally silent. I want silent. When I called one of the newer manufacturers they expressed disbelief that it would be an issue. Well it is for me. I hate hunting for weeks to have an animal spooked by a "clicker". By the way Leupold says they have addressed this issue and I will be checking it out. Anyone else found this a problem?
