steve_b_wales Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Contact Dave G on here. He makes excellent add on NV kits, and, in most cases, are superior that shop bought ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn9914 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) phil I have the wolf complete with the rangefinder its a great bit of kit its on my hw100 for ratting 30 seconds to fit but also plenty good enough for rimfire and above it is crystal clear on my rifle at all ranges I use an old 1980 3-9x50 tasco scope with japan optics and adjustable parallax its a very clear scope which I think makes a difference on the image you see there are dozens of videos on youtube of people shooting rats with the nitesite ranges of nv kits just type in nitesite rats Edited April 2, 2018 by shawn9914 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful with the swarovski... You might find the glass will filter out ir/uv due to stalking elements, rendering the nitesite poor to useless. They doesn't work well on my mates swarovski or my meopta scope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
