DPM or Flectarn.

Quite often Flectarn turns too dark from a distance.

There's a variety of shades of colour with DPM.

Get it right (I prefer faded rather than new) & It works well.

That's for Autumn, Winter, early Spring.

In late Spring or early Autumn (I don't shoot in summer) consider Cadpat.

First of two clips DPM v's Fllectarn.

usually dpm for me, or sometimes plain green, tho i do like the look of the danish camo jackets

the thing most people forget is camo gear does not make you invisible, it just helps you blend in - it doesnt matter what pattern you wear, if your standing in the middle of a field with no cover or bouncing about like an eejit with 6 bags of skittles and a bottle of coke in you then nothing will work :good:

I use several things, I have a nice advantage jacket which i use, but I don't go for the whole SAS thing, thing is my quarry, the bunnie has poor eyesight, but can see movement really easily, so I suppose as long as you are at least blended with the background and stay still you'll do ok.

 

It does kinda annoy me that people take the **** out of airgunners for having all the kit and 'only' an airgun, camo makes no odds really when I'm out with the rimfires, but close up in air ranges I think its a must.

i have everything on your list and more,including tweed.the conclusion i have come to is that if it is drab in colour it will work,so i just wear what is comfortable for the conditions on the day.i think that the head to toe camo in a given brand can sometimes give confidence while you are learning,and that isnt necesarily a bad thing :good::):yes:

In the video there's 3 patterns. The first is DPM, but what's the 3rd one? this one looks really good. Didn't think the 2nd one was so good.

 

I'll stick to dpm for now <_<

1st

DPM

2nd

Tiger Stripe

3rd

Flectarn

Flectarn trousers.

Pt2 shows a mix & match with DPM & Flectarn

(Pt2 trousers are DPM)

I own both DPM and a full realtree suit, and to be honest, I cant notice the differance between bags, and I dont think animals can <_<

 

It just gives you better tihnking mentaly that you are hidden I think :lol:

 

And I do believe it was a question that came up in a mag to a pigeon shooter, he was asked whether or not he thought it made a differance, and he said he cant tell between bags, and hasnt noticed a negative reaction :yes:

 

It doesant help being pure white, but with animals like deer that see in differant tones to us, I dont think cammo actually makes a big differance.
