I am going to look at the new Pard 007 tonight as my pal is bringing it round, not going for one but nevertheless interested.

Yes I agree having seen a couple of youtube vids of the NV100, it does look really good. It is quite long and would require me to move the scope forward in order to get it in a comfortable position which I didn't want to do, so to maintain daylight shooting position of the scope.

Make sure you use another ir to show it at its best 

[philpot 4,967]

Well even with the built in IR, it is far better than the NV90 Mitch.  One interesting thing was that My buddy has an Airmax s/f unlike my two Airmax Compact s/f scopes and the image is better on his scope than mine which also applies to the NV90 but still not good and the rticle is so soft.

Fit another  good IR then it’s another level . That is the beauty of the original pard , one complete very good NV unit with no extras needed

Pard are releasing a new 007s add-on which looks like a compact version so perhaps better for me but not keen on the price..........

Both 850 and 940nan models will be available.

Just seen footage on FB N8vision wher a guy has put his first vid using the NV90 Mitch, bloody good mate, if we had got that, an order for two more would have gone straight in to Optics Warehouse,  I agree I do think it was a duff one. Fingers crossed that the replacement will be okay as this is going back on Monday but I think they are out of stock at the moment.

What scopes are you using?

[SKoT wolf 100]

Just got my pard 008lrf, late to the party i know but whatever. Took it to range tonight an got it zeroed at 35 yards with the jsb exacts 8.44 and the hw110t. Cant be bothered shimming it so spent another load of brass on the eagle vision mount for it should be better when that comes.

My reticle is really low down on my screen so need to sort it i think.

Got a couple of spare batteries and a USB charger so im pretty much good to go.

Could do with an exterior IR torch that i could mount to the other side of the pard on the piccatinny rail if anyone wants to reccomend me one. Try save some battery life rather than uSing the built in IR. Proper nightvision VIRGIN at min but everyone starts somewhere eh..

Chucking it down and windy but might have a stumble round the farm later and see what i can see after my tea.

Hawke Airmax Compact s/f 3-12 x44mm on two guns,  Vantage w.a. s/f 4-16x50 and OUR Varmint

[villaman 9,983]

Pard would not work on one of my airmax scopes. . Should work on our varmint

I am wondering if the Airmax Compact is not an ideal scope for these add-on units in which case my Nitesite won't be going anywhere soon.

[villaman 9,983]

If  niteshit works then all addons should , specially as  niteshit are shit no wonder they went bust with the shed build nv units . Pard came a long and wiped. The floor
