baw 4,360 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Surely once you turn on the lamp, the dog chases one, the rest lamp shy ones will bugger off just the same? Think its a good thing for an air rifle but I don't see the benefit much for dogmen. Quote Link to post

Tyla 3,179 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 I have used one a fair bit and found it very good. I think it was a pulsar digi sight, its a friends and he uses it on his fac airgun very effectively. When we use it with the dogs he uses it as a spotter off the rifle. He scans and spots rabbit etc and guides me and the dog into the best position. It means the lamp is only on for the actual run, no scanning the field or flicking on to check quarry is still there. It is good for places where you have to be a bit subtle. The only down side is the price, his was about a grand new but probably available cheaper now. I'd buy one if I had a spare grand but that never seems to happen! 1 Quote Link to post
