Another Good Night On The Bunnies

[ftm 3,357]

decided the thermal needed another outing last night and on arrival at the farm a quick zero check and all is fine -I walked to a gate at bottom end of the buildings and looking through the scope I see two rats drinking from a puddle -crosshairs on one and accupel hits home and it just slumped on the spot other one legged it a quick scan about and there is a heat scource on the dry stone wall so I fiddled with the focus and another rat doesn't have a clue its about to die lol -I leant against a bit of farm machinery and another perfect shot sent rat rolling off the wall -I then went around the fields picking rabbits off at random -I was testing myself with ranges tonight and although its deadly accurate and clear up to 45ish yds I sussed out the more blurry the image required a bit hold over and was pleased with a few good 50+yd shots -mind you I did miss plenty but they are there for another day -total 37 bunnies 2 big rats -once ive got the full hang of its workings I WILL press the record button lads and give yous an insight into this bit of kit

As useual mate you got a great amount wether its crows or rabbits, sounds like a great bit of kit youv baught, whats the prices for them ? Nice one again pal

[ftm 3,357]

just short of £3000 mate -a lot of money I know but ive worked hard and saved my cash so I though why not

That's another cracking trip out mate

 

Does a thermal scope give off any sort of sign that you're there?

..... like the way NV gives off an IR glow.

Gulp, if your selling the rabbits it wont take too long to pay for itself with the numbers you get pal

That must be an amazing bit of kit and obviously this is shown in the results. With a family I don't think I could ever justify that without getting the divorce papers. I don't spend more than £1500 on a car. The two guys who run the shoot that I beat on have had a thermal set-up for a few years to keep on top of the foxes and rabbits. Looking forward to the videos.

there is no ir on this scope so you are totally invisible to your quarry and its great to watch critters going about there buissiness without them having a clue your there ---hares hedgehogs mice badgers even birds sitting on nests lol -curlews lapwings etc
