Have one of the nighthawks, only gets used when bored and have some time to hit a few clays over a stubble or whatever's available. But it definitely works well solo and with a mate taking turn about.

Hi, I purchased the HikMicro Condor CQ35L a few weeks ago and got my first proper outing with it this Saturday past. Brilliant piece of kit, a game changer over NV or lamping (which both still have their places). Recording and using LRF seems to kill the battery quickly, but there are x3 in the pack, I carried x1 spare and didn't use it, 4 hours nearly continuous use and a quick 10 min plug in via the cars USB port between one set of land and the other and didn't change batteries, suits me and my needs from the unit! Found Deer on land I've been shooting over for the past year, quick and easy to cover the ground for pest control, easy to see rats and other vermin where it was a task previously. Ampsplus batteries are pretty good if you want a few spares, I have a few of them and they last a long time on my opticsfire LED lamp, multiple trips with it and never ran out of juice.

Large dog Fox with the 223, Watched it for a few minutes, it had a bad rear leg, hobbling around. Total 107 -
All good, spent the morning arranging things that could blow/break away or tucked in to the fence on the ground. Got the concrete and pavers treated with hypochlorite in anticipation of heavy rain, got a few showers and that was it. Not much in the way of trees or damage, got the odd strong gust of wind, outside wasn't too bad either 😛.

I won (via David at Predator Protection UK YouTube) a Hittak (Later Arken and now DNT) Non LRF 5-20. Brilliant little scope, very clear, out shines a Pard all day long, comparable to the Alpex or close enough makes no real odds. I would be inclined to put the 20MOA mount on the 22-250give some wiggle room for zeroing at longer distances perhaps.

X2 foxes, x1 vixen, the second we couldn't pick up, ran into neighbouring field and I didn't fancy facing the x30 750kg cattle stampeding up and down the fence line! 88 -

He's had more lives than a cat at this point. He was dead in 2022, 23 & 24....

Morning. Nothing on the Google as yet... been a few cases of him having died over the years. Ryan

A 26 year old arrested ( in hospital in critical condition after being found wounded). Sounds like a person who shouldn't have had access to a plastic spoon nevermind a crossbow. A nightmare for the family and friends of all involved.

Hi, Depending on the base mag of your scope, I had the 16mm and sold it when I got a x6 base mag for the .223 and now have a 12mm version, it ix 1-1 magnification.
