Evil Elvis Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 I was wittering on about black bunnies on one of my permissions the other day , well today i shot one!!!!! I spent all afternoon out with the 12g and shot nowt, so i went back to the car, got the nv and off i went, shot 3 normal bunnies too. i feel a bit rotten about the size of this fellow but its hard to judge through the nv how big they are. I stalked a massive black one with the shotty but couldnt get near it, hare proportions..stood out massivley against the young wheat stems...im suprised there are so many of them.

Evil Elvis Posted April 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 (edited) I bought it from hebridean tech house, they were closing down so i got it for £625 including the ir enhancer, it cost me another £70 in weaver rail monts and is bloody heavy, i just bought a bipod for it(thanks andy!) Range is superb, i shot the bunnys last night at a paced 40 yards and you could see them clear as a whistle, i take it fishing with me to one of my lakes, and the rats dont know what hits em!!! I would imagine you could use it on a rimmy, last night Jerico and myself could see a fox with it from one side of the field to the other which was at least 200+ yards. I saty fox loosley, we could see the eyes though I thought they were a bit high for a fox, possibly a deer, there are some over there, mostly muntjacks but there are the odd big deer that strays on there. I would definitley recommend the use of the ir enhancer, makes a huge difference. Id say if you are at 12ftlbs then you can easily see bunnies to the limit of your shot, and i think that you could happily shoot out to 65-70 yards on an fac. that scope is actually an ex-russian army scope so thay must be reasonable, the army wouldnt take any old ****, Im happy with it, depth perception takes some getting used to but all in all a great piece of kit. I walked through a field with a lamp once, shot a bunny or 2, then turned round and looked back with the nv and there were 5-6 rabbits that I had walked through!!!!! Jerico was lamping last night, i wandered back and shot a bunny about 30 yards from where he was perched up!!!
