Are you using an extended pic rail/long zulus mount? Scope should be arriving Tuesday, have a pic rail (standard length) on its way too.

I’ve ordered one, it comes with the 0moa mount so will see how I get on with it🤞

I recently purchased a 3x12 lrf zulus for one of my air rifles and am impressed with it. Im considering purchasing the 5x20 model to use on my Tikka T3 Lite in 22.250 calibre. Currently using warne rings with a day scope. Intend to buy a 0moa pic rail for it to accommodate the Zulus, Question is, what moa rail do I require with the zulus? TIA

I'll take this👍

Interested. Have p.m'd you.

Received the apex and fh35 today (unbeknown to Mrs Jones🤐). Not had time to unbox the apex and suss it out but got the fh35 up and running...…WOW! Now admittedly I haven't tried anything else to compare it with, but to say I think its the dogs danglies is an understatement! Was watching mice running about the field earlier! Now I've heard the phrase 'game-changer' thrown about when it comes to thermal many times, but really can see why now! Cant wait to get out and use it properly. Proper chuffed with it!😀

Thanks guys. I'll be eating beans on toast for the foreseeable as its a huge chunk of money for me! As I was also looking at day/night scopes to mount on one of the air rifles for rats and squirrels, when I saw the package deal saving I thought it made sense-just don't tell the missus 🤐 I currently use a pard007 for night shooting (which I rate highly when used with a Black Sun IR Illuminator) that I clip to the rimfires and 250. Along with the use of the FH35 I hope to be able to increase my ability to catch up with the more skittish foxes. Have used a hand held nv spotter for years and know for certain that the display shining back in my face has spooked a lot of foxes.

Well I've gone for the Hik FH35/Hik Alpex bundle from optics warehouse. Hopefully it will meet my expectations!

Would I be able to differentiate between charlie and sheep easily out to 300 odd yards?

Evening all, I'm looking at getting a new thermal spotter in the coming months. Would like some recommendations on what to get. Its pretty daunting looking at what's on offer! Budget is around £1.5k. Predominantly for foxing, but would like to use it when on the the squizzers and also ratting with the air rifle. Not really concerned about all the bluetooth/recording etc software on some of the models, just want an easy to use, dependable unit that gives me good quarry id.

So Mr Drakefords thinking behind this 20mph is fewer injury’s/deaths etc. As being hit at 20mph is safer than being hit at 30……….Why don’t we all drive around at 10mph for a few weeks as that’s got to be safer than 20 according to Drakefords reckoning? See what happens then……carnage!………….but then again 5mph got to be safer again🤔

After my second pair of Le Chameau Mouflon boots have basically fallen apart again (will never buy another pair of boots from this company!) I'm in the market for a good quality pair of wellies. What do you guys use and what do you recommend? Ive been looking at the Aigle Parcours 2's, good reviews. Need something that keeps my feet warm in the winter yet breathable in the warmer weather. Also comfort is obviously paramount. Cheers

totally agree, this is what I was informed by a local rfd though? The renewal is going in next week so I'll soon find out.

I don't want it stipulated as an nv rifle on my cert as i still would like to use it whilst not in the hides during daylight hours

Thanks for the answers guys I think the scorpion would be good as a dedicated hide/truck rifle offering reasonable shot count (20 or so). The ultra or another small carbine wouldn't offer enough shots. My rapid gives around 50 shots per charge but weighs a ton and is very long, its a right chore in a hide. A good quality bull pup would probably be great but are silly money! Not sure what my county firearms dept are like issuing same calibre slots- hopefully they will be ok with the reasoning, we shall see.
