Too shooting. That's the scope everyone should be looking to buy still nothing to compare to the drone

Went today. No traffic was in by 845. Was a fair bit to look at but as said earlier if you took clothing and food out it would be very small. Remember going as a kid in the eighties and people selling ferrets and pups at campsite and showground. I know those days are gone and the internet has killed off a lot of the deals but still a nice walk round.
Had a good look at new thermal and NV quite fancy a spotter with lrf but don't want to sell a kidney to upgrade. Also can't see any NV sight that compares to drone yet

I had the Solaris on my 243 but it would turn itself off with the recoil, new switch supplied and same thing so its sat on the shelf and I use a PbirL
Sounds daft but I had this problem with a it once turns out I had put nippleless 18650 battery in so it would recoil connection out. Probably not yours but worth mentioning

My guess was farmer likes to see the dead ones. To check job is being done and disposes of them. Had a guy years back used to ask me to leave them in gateways and he would pick up on morning rounds.

If there is anything i have learned from the world of n/v and watching other people is "buy once cry once". The number of lads i see constantly buying the next cheaper end of n/v hoping it will live up to the hype is staggering. They buy n/v scopes that are only suitable for rimfire ranges and try to stretch them out with stronger i/rs or changing the lenses etc only to be disappointed again. When they have bought two or three of these scopes they could of bought something proper in the first place.
I have tried everything NV pretty much. Have a pard on hmr witch is perfect for that rifle. But as said earlier finally settled on drone for foxing rifle.
Tried a few thermal scopes but I Iike to see what I am shooting.........
Wait for replies to that one

Get a drone the rest are on a similar level. But the drone is a different level from all the other digital NV units. It won't record, have millions of reticles, etc etc but If you want clarity and the best digital NV scope made get a drone

Just bought a Spartan this week. Not cheap and my hands were tied because my rifle does not have standard swivel. Seems great bit if kit. With drone pro and mod on top of rifle I wanted something light. Will be using it in my various fox boxes. If I am honest use my quad sticks for all other shooting apart from targets. Had a few Harris copies and were crap. Genuine Harris are good and can be picked up quite cheap second hand.

Really depends on budget. T3 is probably best value for money out of box accuracy is great. But saying that I did sell a T3 to upgrade to a sauer 404. Fantastic rifle does it shoot any better than tikka? probably not lol

Nice one mate .Do you sit or stand to shoot .
Sit for the squirrel feeder at front. But if you notice the roof over hangs at front with about a 2ft gap at back. This works perfect for shooting standing with resting on top edge of box. There are a large amount of tall pine trees that the pigeons seem to love aswell as everything else lol

Great write up mate. Another drone fan here. Still nothing to beat that scope. Mine has been a great purchase the one or two I have had with it

Mate ,if you think there’s just the one then think again .I’m amazed at the numbers must travel for miles to visit the sheds just to sample chicken .I been at my spot all night just watching and as one filters away another one does exact same route in and out followed by another and another .One slot in time dosnt quite cover the comings and going’s of a fox magnet like an organic chicken farm
Exactly this always makes me smile when you here it's a big dog taking hens or small vixen when it's probably half a dozen. With half as many following next week. I think a lot of people would be surprised the draw of a commercial chicken unit

Just sold my 008 lrf plus. Good bit of kit. But would definitely say my original standard 008 has better clarity than new oled screen. If using at cf ranges another ir will be needed. I used my dragon fly ir. To be fair only sold it as I upgraded to drone which is a whole different level

No dragonfly laser if. Only ever switch on when I shoot as spot with thermal

Seems fine Ben. Always does a full night. But to be fair always carry spare battery

Had first walk with dogs yesterday
Late night on foxes last night with the pard 008 plus impressing me more and more.

I got a FoxPro had for years only thing I had to change was battery compartment rusted out lol. Use its couple of times each week and has accounted for one or two over the years. Although there are loads of calls on these things only ever use about 8. Use the remote in my pocket without looking as so used to it now. Great kit worth every penny just take a bag when it's wet
