First Outing For The Rt


si brown

Recommended Posts

wanted to get out tonight with the new photon as I'm gonna be busy for a while!

decided rat bashing wasn't going to truly test it so I hit a big bowl field that I know holds a few rabbits and is big enough to test the

visibility at distances!

got to the gate as dusk was turning and turned it on :)

a rabbit sat there oblivious to the bumbling bloke trying to work out how to record it..

got it sorted and the rabbit dropped at 60ish yrd

had a scope about but the moon was that bright I was pi55ing in the wind.. had to have the brightness on full where as on a proper dark night

I usually have it really low

I spotted an other in a stubble field hedge line but fully over shot it, the mags higher on this one than my XT

and its gonna take a few trips out to properly get use to it!

 

sat on a high bank messing about with different settings and stuff just to see what it could do,

these sheep were at about 90yrd I've shot this field loads!

only a couple but it was more of a test drive night...

I'm well happy with the rt and my old t20 ir is redundant now cos the built in ir will light rabbits up a fair distance :thumbs:

gonna have to invest in the battery pack though

 

 

had a walk about but looking through the scope it was obvious everything could see me :(

 

except this one on the way back to the car, I was on a high bank in the shadow of a tree

the pictures could be a lot better, it was bright moon and that was with me shaking about :laugh:

 

I stood at the top of the paddocks on the hill looking down to the main road where I took you and the horses and rabbits could see me

from at least 100yrd so I didn't even bother walking it!
