Yep it is the same thing and you accomplish the same end. I was just explaining how to use them. I, like hunting man, prefer the laser range finder. I learned the other when I was in the service. but I will say this, I was hunting and my rangefinder went kaput, who cares right, well I had a rather large fallow buck come out and I was able to revert to the old tried and true method of using the mil dot graduations to ESTIMATE the distance and therefore was able to judge the antler size fairly well. It also told me how many clicks to add my elevation to make a clean harvest
