Elliott 436 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 So what's the practical visible range and clarity like? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 With extra IR easy a couple of hundred yard. All depends on distance and target size, and what your planning to shoot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lloyd90 509 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Do they also work in the daytime ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Yes but there not ideal, a dayscope is much better for daytime use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tremo 138 Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Is the price still £419 delivered Ian? I see that Clive W has an offer on for all NV Forum members .... £409 delivered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 I keep toying with the idea of the 4.6 version, but am wondering if I should get the 6.5 now, I would probably only mount it on the .22 or the air rifle, so would the larger 6.5 be too much for say ratting @ 20 -30 yards? I will be interested in the reviews when they appear, to see if its any better than its smaller stablemate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest its better for rimfire/centrefire ranges as its higher mag, which will give a better image at distance, the lower mag xt 4.2 will give more field of view which may be better for close range work like ratting.

charlie caller 3,654 Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Thats kind of what I was thinking, I just cant see me putting one on the cenerfire to be honest, I would prefer an add on if I went down night vision route on the big rifle, hmmmm decisions decisions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
