Need Reco For New Electronic Varmit Call - 10/09/15 09:36 PM

My old Johnny Morris err Johnny Walker err Johnny sumthin finally crapped out last weekend.
Need sumthin that the remote will reach out to 200 yards, maybe 250 now and then.
Dependable, non white receiver/speaker. Don't want to spend 600 bucks but I would
go 3 to 4 hundred if that's what good uns are going for.

Anyone got any recos from personal experiece?

Ecotec's have a very long remote range. Why would you need to set a caller more than 100 yards away?

Foxpro of any flavor is the bomb but the remote range is about 100 max.

I've never had the ability to do this but I'd like to.

I just bought the FoxPro Inferno. I watched a YouTube video by FoxPro stating that they used the remote 550 yards away in direct sight and 110 yards down in brush. We'll see if that's true or not... It has a new remote and comes with FoxBang which will automatically play a pup in distress after a shot. It comes with 75 sounds which is probably more than I will ever need for $199.95.

I played with it here at the house and the remote seems really easy to operate and has decent sound quality.
