Rangefinding binoculars for archery

[missed]

I am about to upgrade my Leica HDB's to a newer unit. The ranging on close targets less than 100 yards can be a bit off depending on how reflective the target it. I will get a few yard difference ranging a Morrell field target bale (big round flat target) or ranging the water-resistant target faces that are pretty shiny. They will be used mostly for ranging 3D targets, which all the Delta/Mckinsey 3D targets seem to have about the same sheen. My sons Sig Kilo 6k's do not do this, they are much more accurate at ranging, glass is just no where near the Leica glass. Having a RFB that is more accurate than the older HDB can mean the difference in catching a 12 or dropping into an 8 or a 10. So I am looking at the Sig Kilo 10k Gen2, Leica Pro 10x42, or the Vetronix 10x42. Does anyone have experience using them for archery ? Or even just playing with them at close range ?

THANKS!

If I was gonna archery hunt with them I’d go with 8x. Easier to hold and range with one hand.

Lower power the better. I personally run a normal range finder because of the close proximity , then 8x30 binos for spotting, and I use a Garmin bow sight so I never pull out my range finder, it's back up

This setup is more for killing foam. My current Leicas range animals perfectly. I do not want to have to carry another piece of equipment, I want to do it with the RFB's and no separate rangefinder. I have thought about getting the Garmin sight for my hunting setup, I got the Axcel Driver sight a few months back and its pretty awesome, so I am hesitant to change it.
