Alanl50 Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 i sold mine on about a month ago i used it 2 or3 times with a T20IR + doubler but i was getting 250yards no problem. but like I say i sold it on as i couldn’t get on with it Why if you dont mind could you not get on with it?

Splashy Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Hi, I ordered a Photon from Blades and bows and received it the next day, excellent service. I now have it mounted on my HW100 using low profile mounts and it really is an excellent piece of kit. Compared to the Challenger with DSA it offers a much more natural shooting position and the image quality is excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
