Scottoj18 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 This is my first shooting test with the night vision it's at 10meters 5 shots aiming at the ball, zeroed at 30yards. The two high shots are where the pellets have bounced back through the target. I'm quite happy with how it's gone pellets iv used are BSA interceptor..

bighit1985 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 How had Scott glued the camera to the flip up scope cover?? does the lens fit the scope cover or has he cut the cover then put the lens through it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottoj18 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I cut a hole I to the flip cap. Tight fitting to the lens push in as far as you can so the adjustment pin is tight to the flip cap. glue inside and outside the cap. Make it so you can still tighten the screw to adjust the focus .. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottoj18 Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 10 yards was just a shooting test just to make sure the parallax was all ok ... I will go out this week and test to 30-40 yards. I'm only using it on a airgun and will post the vids! I promise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottoj18 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 here is a test i got out tonite not for long as the rain started but this is what i got. not many rabbits out tonite,, i did get a rabbit but no with the night vision i was on my way bk and he poped his head out. head shot 30yards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottoj18 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 It works really well in the day aswell. Not bad for under £100 and you can remove it to use the scope as norm. I think that a higher powerd ir would work even better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-G Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 You guys have had plenty time to use it in the field now - hows it going, We're waiting for the vids chaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonicdmb Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 can you tell me if you've removed the ir filter from the camera it's not mentioned either way. I've built a nv set up from bits and get 150 yards + with filtered lamp.this was vast improvement over range with it in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can easly identify quarry up to 40yards, Got a little carryed away with the camo tape. Edited January 17, 2013 by Scottoj18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrob Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Probably been asked before but can you build night vision using a camera that has a night scene setting. I have a small vivitar 615hd camera and wondered if it could be adapted. Any help please . Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannyboy220 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Been looking at this build and I reckon I can manage it with my limited tech ability. Hopefully you boys have had a bit of a play with the kit now. Is there anything you would change? Before I start my build. Cheers Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottoj18 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Don't think so mate .. I would strongly say to use the ir laser and not a tourch apart from that nothing. If u get stuck or need help just pm or comment here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
