henry d Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I have just returned from Lidl and have taken the plunge and bought a NV monocular. The farms I shoot over also have the farmer go out and shoot rabbits, although he seems not to worry about being quiet. This makes the bunnies more and more wary as the winter progresses, so I thought I would get the NV to spot the rabbits and use the normal set up of .22 with a deben tracer max and dimmer to shoot with. I will post a few pics when I can get out and try it. Anyone else going to get one ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webber Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Another PW member was kind enough to send me one from N.Ireland. (cheque in post) We tried it in the dark after our shoot on Saturday. It was bloody cold, and at first I thought that I had a pup, but after a few minutes, it must have warmed up, and then FANTASTIC, even without the aid of the infra red light source. One of our younger members bought one last time around, and adapted it to fit his air rifle scope, and claims excellent results, although I have not seen the set up for myself. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
