Tango Fire4000 Elite: Weapon-Mounted Rangefinder for Extreme Precision
The Tango Fire4000 Elite is an advanced weapon-mounted laser rangefinder that fundamentally changes how you shoot at long range. By mounting the device directly on your rifle, you stay focused on your target without breaking position. This means faster shots, better consistency, and ultimately superior performance in competitions or during extended-range hunting sessions.
Applied Ballistics Integration: The Gold Standard in Ballistics
The strategic partnership with Applied Ballistics makes the Fire4000 Elite more than just a rangefinder. Through the AB Synapse - BOSS app or the newer AB Quantum app (available for iOS and Android), you gain access to professional ballistic calculations that update in real-time with environmental conditions. You can directly synchronize your AB profiles with the device and also have the option to connect via ABE (Applied Ballistics External) mode with your Kestrel weather meter or Garmin device.
This flexibility means you can integrate the Fire4000 Elite into your existing workflow, or use the device as a standalone unit. The choice is yours, depending on how you prefer to work.
Dual Laser System for Maximum Versatility
The intelligent dual laser system distinguishes the Fire4000 Elite from conventional rangefinders. The invisible laser (Class 1, 905nm) measures distances up to 4000 yards, which translates to nearly 3700 meters. Actual range depends on target type: on reflective targets under ideal conditions you achieve the full 4000 yards, on urban structures approximately 2000 yards, and on vegetation or non-reflective surfaces around 1500 yards.
The visible red laser (Class 2, 635nm) is specifically designed for zeroing your weapon and is effective up to 100 yards. This feature makes the installation process simple and ensures your rangefinder is perfectly aligned with your optics.
High-Contrast OLED Display with Flexible Presentation
The Fire4000 Elite's OLED screen displays distance and angle immediately with excellent readability, even in bright sunlight. Adjustable brightness ensures optimal visibility of your data in all lighting conditions. Particularly practical is the ability to display the screen both vertically and horizontally, with the device mountable on either the left or right side of your rail. This ambidextrous design philosophy means you can position the Fire4000 Elite exactly as you want, regardless of your preferences or rifle configuration.
With a long press of two seconds, you easily switch between different screen orientations, allowing quick adaptation to changing conditions.
Lightning-Fast 0.5 Second Response Time
The 0.5 second response time ranks among the fastest in its class and makes a crucial difference in dynamic shooting situations. You feel a subtle vibration as soon as the device locks onto your target, giving you confidence that you have an accurate measurement without needing to look at the screen. This tactile feedback is especially valuable in competitions where every second counts, or during hunting situations where speed and silence are essential.
Practical Applications for the Serious Shooter
For precision rifle competitions, the Fire4000 Elite offers an undeniable advantage. You don't need to come off your rifle between stages or during unknown distance shooting. This not only saves time but also increases your consistency because you don't constantly need to adjust your shooting position. You remain in your natural position, aim at your target, measure distance, and take the shot, all in one fluid motion.
When developing DOPE for your specific ammunition and rifle, the Fire4000 Elite is indispensable. Accurate distance measurements and angle compensation allow you to verify your ballistics under real-world conditions. This is especially valuable on ranges with varying terrain where you regularly shoot uphill or downhill.
For shooters working with handloaded ammunition, you take load development to the next level. Test different loads at known distances and immediately see how they perform, supported by professional ballistic software.
