In need of a decent spotting scope.

Are there any that have a built in range finder for a price under $500?

Do you have a specific purpose?

Nope. Nothing worth getting at that price point with a rangefinder. That is asking a lot for a low budget.

If you need a spotting scope you should know that $500 is on the extreme low end and is truly not worth spending money. Save your money until you afford one at 1000+
You'll be much happier in the end

Got a burris free with a scope. It's a piece of shite, would not recommend.
Also, why not get a separate rangefinder?

I have a separate range finder but my bushnell only goes out to 500 yds.

Agreed. One favorite among serious shooters is a KOWA. I have one, paid $800 for it years ago. Absolutely the best I've ever put my eye to.

Man, that's a little less than half of what you are going to need to spend. Buy the range finder and spotting scope separately....unless you have a specific reason.

Not to be a dick but Bushnell is junk on range finders. I have one so I know. I purchased a nikon which was an upgrade but still not worth the money.

It's a Nikon!!! My bad.

No decent ones with rangefinder for that kind of money.
But for $500 I'd check out either an Alpen or Vortex.
