Hezbear Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Have at look here at the lazerlite £88 for the full set up http://www.solwayfeeders.com/ProductsResultsList1.asp?cat=20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I bought the clulight recently, good lamp but its a broad beam, not so good for rifle shooting at range. The lightforce lamps are pretty good and with variable power, take some beating imho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 John Boy, It will be easier to help you if we know what you want the lamp for, i.e. Foxes or Rabbits - Air Rifle or FAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbart Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 If it is for a CF then you need a lightforce as the rest just don't perform well enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Have to agree that a Lightforce is likely to be the best bet but I'm not sure about a shotgun mount. There will hopefully be others that can advise you on that one mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smig4373 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I use a Blazerlite from cluson...2million cp...The beauty with these is that you can change the handle from hand-held to gun mount in seconds....there relatively cheap to compared to some...I paid £55 for mine 4 yrs ago..Been a great buy...

wymberley Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I bought the clulight recently, good lamp but its a broad beam, not so good for rifle shooting at range. The lightforce lamps are pretty good and with variable power, take some beating imho Hi, I found the same thing with clulight. What comes next may well depend on what model you have. They come to bits quite easily and the bulb holder is often fitted into a slotted carrier with two retaining screws. slackening the screws allows the bulb holder to move in its slot thus changing the beam. On one I actually managed to extend the slot with a small round file to furher improve it. Two points to note, it gets hot very quickly and you need to "zero" at a reasonable distance.

burntout Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Depends on the ranges over which you are shooting but on my S400 non FAC I have a Surefire CREE LED lamp from Ebeay - cost around £14 and provides a great beam out to 60 yards plus. Worth a serious look if you're non fac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a serious look if you're non fac. I second that, I use an Ultrafire I got off DealExtreme, including the mounts and pressure switch it was under £15 and out to rimfire ranges it's spot on as a targetting lamp, not really tried it as an acquistion lamp (I use a Lenser H7 headtorch for that when I'm stalking or a man with a Lightforce when lamping) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 i've got both a Lightforce 170 (THE foxing lamp) and a Tracer Mini (air rifle / rimfire lamp) The Mini is an excellent small lamp but a lot of people also use LED lamps like the Atom/Surefire on Air Rifles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 not round me Nick, next to where I shoot theres an airgun enthusiast that goes out with a lightforce Blitz I would laugh but the scroat has a habbit of lighting us up from half a mile away that gets very very annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
