So I got a pard 007 sp lrf , but the target is grainy and not as clear as I thought it would be.
I got a new SF Hawke scope which gives me the best image, but my 3 older AO Hawke scopes are the worst.
The icons and reticules are very clear, but as stated the targets are grainy, and I'm talking about 25 - 50 - 75 yds.
With the experience of you guys, would you think it is the older scopes or the " budget " type IR torches I am using ? Won't be used too often, but would expect to see better targets, namely the couple of rabbits which seem to be around.
Also, what are the two 'o' rings and the smaller allen key supplied in the package for ? Can't see no mention in the manual.
Edit to add - how good are the onboard ir's, ? They don't seem to improve target quality. Should they reach out to 75 yds ? If so it must be the older scopes.
I have a mk 1 alpex on a .223, which works ok with my budget ir's , as did my good old photon.
