Stavross 16,135 Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 As I can’t be doing with watching the great British sewing bee with her indoors ( by the way, longshanx’s likes it) me and the long one had a go at the rabbits, there was a few about and we managed 7, longshanx taking one at over 100 yards ( cracking shot) they are very lamp shy, so roll on the light nights when we can just sit up with a cup of tea and pop a few off as they go about their business 5 1 Quote Link to post

Expand there a good bit of kit, ive used a few different nv's over the years and this is the best and most practical.. the picture is spot on and it dose all the stuff the mega pricey ones do but generally better and 1/3 of the price..spotted deer at over 200 with the ir on full. you might need to use an additional ir if you've got a pricey scope on as the more expensive ones filter the ir down! one of my mates flogged a pard and bought an n355 said it was crap compared to the pard flogged it and bought another .. you don't have to compromise your day scope at all regarding eye relief and when the pards on its just right cos there's next to no eye relief needed .. only thing ill say is I have the rubber eye pice folded out of the way but I also did that with the photons, you can use a nv range finder with it to which is a bonus! got mine off Ian b for a better price than anywhere, give him a call on the Blackwood site number if your interested 1 Quote Link to post
