Rabid 1,936 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I hate those screens, my mate came out with me one and he had one, I could see his face half a field away ! He only used it once more after borrowing my n550, I wouldn't touch the photon either, I tried one and hated it. Quote Link to post

I,d love thermal but, its a lot of pennies for it to be used every now and again Quote Link to post
Rabid 1,936 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Agreed, mega money even when you use them regularly, but I was referring to a n550 pulsar night vision unit, can be had for Ito £400 I do have thermal and love it, but took some soul searching to take the plunge Quote Link to post

I find a cap and veil is a must because of the screen - I've found that using mine on full power to scan for rabbits then, turning it down and using the edge of the screen to stalk in works quite well. With the kit set up on a full length HW100, A shooting stick comes in very handy. Which ever way you go - Enjoy it mate Hi Jon, i have been using Nite site Nv since the NS200 first came out and currently use a NS-wolf & a NS-viper i have no problem with the heads up position as i shoot off primos tripod shooting sticks and and most of my rabbits are shot from ambush, i keep screen brightness as low as possible and enjoy using the nite site NV units, i also use photon XT6.5 ,pulsar N750, X-sight3x12x44, as NV is a hobby of mine. atb brian 2 Quote Link to post
