For a basic dedicated night vision unit they work ok and will allow you to shoot out to 200yds. https://www.blackwoodoutdoors.co.uk/yukon-photon-rt-6x50-s

You have three problems here.. 1. The Nite Site Dark Ops version is 940NM in the IR spectrum which means its not visible to the eye at all human/animal , the problem being the beam doesn't throw anywhere near as far because of it being 940NM, the standard version is better and cheaper. 2. Nightforce scopes are not good for add on night vision, you would be much better off with the likes of a Hawke Sidewinder or MTC range, the difference in the amount of IR light passed through the glass due to less coatings is VERY noticeable . 3. You bought a Nitesite

Still £1100 more than the Helion XQ38F model...theres a market for them, but I think its limited and the benefits are negligible, as I say if you have money to burn and just want an Accolade, I'd at least wait until the LRF version arrives.

The Accolade XP50 models have a RRP of £5149.99 My own opinion is your spending £1150 more for an additional eye display in different format body, same lens and same eye display as used in the Helion XP50 model , is it worth an extra £1150 for an eye display ? Controversial , later on at some point the Accolade LRF models will be released with built in rangefinder into the side of the unit, these would be worth having but even more money...

Agree ATN are junk as night vision units, great in daytime due to the HD sensor offering 1080p or 4k image, the downside of that fan dangled daytime resolution is the pixels are tiny, which it turn means they do not gather much light, and are laggy, unlike the lower resolution bigger pixel Pulsar units which gather loads of light and are dedicated purely for night vision use ... Its all about your needs, budget and distance you want to shoot. Consider a rear mounted option also so you can use your standard day scope, wind magnification up as required, know your reticule drop points,

In my 1:12 T3, 40gr vmax or Varmageddon reloads. cost me about 40p or less each roughly to reload a round, thats primer, powder, head, thats not including the brass which provides multiple reloading.. Deadly accurate for me and have dropped everything I have shot stone dead, 3700fps.

Try a cheap android unit , check gumtree or eBay .

I use a .223 in 1in12 twist with 40g vmax rounds its doing 3700fps and has dropped everything on the spot I have shot, nice flat shooting round in fact I was tempted by a .204 but the .223 with 40gr vmax and 1:12, the trajectory is neigh on identical, but the .223 has much more choice in every aspect.. I also use a .243 but since getting the .223 I always use this now as its minimal recoil, cheap to reload and flat shooting, love it!

Has it got a weaver rail fitted.
-
Next mission, screw a small section of weaver rail onto the front side of your stock and fit a laser rangefinder to the side takes all the guesswork out of range. I shoot rabbits out to 120yds using a RF at night with the .22 rimmy..

Did you use the PIP function Walshie, very handy for longer shots whilst still having the wide field of view the native mag gives.
-
? It doesn't need signal from a network , the phone and helion create there own link as the helion emits a wifi signal your phone connects too.
-
All the models prior to the Helion range i.e Quantum HD/XD/XQ models and Apex Rifle Scope Models. I use a Apex XQ LRF vehicle mounted to a screen on a light force handle, with the wireless remote on the dashboard to activate the rangefinder..
-
Since the Helion models have no direct video output your only option is to use the wireless streaming feature. Install Stream Vision on an android/IOS phone or tablet then link them using the app. On your Helion activate the WIFI then on your phone/tablet connect to the wireless signal from the helion you may have to input the password as a one off, then go into your stream vision app and you should be able to view your footage directly.

Yes similar.

Others could be Air Arms Group, Weihrauch Owners, etc, etc Galleries, discussion sections,can be created, etc specific to each group.
-
Mark group created you can edit the group photo and header photo, as well as change settings, etc its basically a mini forum you can control settings on as a group owner.

Basically I'm just testing the water, it might be a stupid idea. You can have groups on any subject and members can request to join them, there away from the main forum and can be based on anything. You can have standalone members for individual groups who can act control the group settings, moderate, etc if they want. You can invite them also. I can set it so members can create there own groups, but this feature is not currently enabled. https://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/clubs/

Has anyone got a passion for a particular rifle manufacturer and would like to run a club for it based on the forum?

I currently own an original Royale 400 model unregulated in FAC, set at 32ft/lb and using either FX 16gr pellets or JSB 18gr pellets under the right weather conditions I can consistently shoot out to 80-100yds dropping rabbits with ease.
