I've had/used silva Ranger's for.. well, over a decade now. If the declination adjustment is walking on you, just replace it for your primary gear and use a dallop of epoxy to "lock" it in place on zero dec... then mark it NODEC with a sharpie and relegate it to your fallback/spare gear pile. It still functions, but not as designed.
I liked using the declination adjustment because it made life simpler. I'd alternate between using the mil lensatic and my own compass for land nav during training just to keep up on having to do the math, but my primary compass was, and now that I'm out is, the Ranger.
It's also what I've trained the wife up on using and what she has in her gear.
