volpe 21 Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hi guys i have a pulsar ns550 with doubler that has served me well and was wondering if the new photon rt 6 x 50 was worth getting 1) Can it really be used during the day i mean like a day scope 2) is it smaller on the rifle than a NS550 as the NS550 is quite a big beast 3) has the technology moved on ie better clarity or has it just caught up with the pulsar, suppose what i am asking is will i be able to tell the difference Im ready for putting my night vision back on my browning t bolt hmr and was just thinking if it was worth a look at the photon as they seem to get good reviews, so what you all think about the photon rt all answers gratefully received Cheers Volpe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
villaman 9,983 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 IMO keep the N550 . My mate sold his N550 with a doubler for a photon ,regrets it big time . I totally agree with him as well , i have looked through it when new and once again IMO crap . He has even did the conversion on it with another lens and still shit Quote Link to post Share on other sites

trappa 518 Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Im at the other end of the spectrum, Im looking nw for some NV and roughly had it down to choosing between these two. I was erring towards the photon because it can be used as a day scope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabid 1,936 Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 As above, you will regret it, I've had both and the photon was sold on within 10 days of purchase, still have the pulsar though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
