    I had the Solaris on my 243 but it would turn itself off with the recoil, new switch supplied and same thing so its sat on the shelf and I use a PbirL

     

    As stated use a battery cell with a nipple on, not a flat top cell ..

  7. Which one would you choose

    in Night Vision & Thermal

    Posted

    A very biased video, I've tried them all and whilst some have a good image, most are like something out of Home Bargains in comparison to the build, quality and features of the new Helion 2 models.. Chalk and Cheese.

    That Helion 2, they are very sensitive and the software needs to be in Rocks mode with the contrast reduced to give the best detail, it is far better than what is shown there..

    Is that out of impact, if so what liner and what settings 

    I'll sort a video out soon, that wasn't ideal to test to be fair... it was windy but not too bad..

    I plan to test all the weights and show throughout the speed range the results..

     

    Superior Standard 700mm .25 liner.

    145barg reg, Huma Dual Transfer Port and Probe. 

    970fps-980fps 36gr .250 H&N

    Standard valve spring , although I will fit the lighter slug valve spring and check for any increase.

     

    900fps was pretty accurate too..

     

     

  13. Pulsar xm30 vs xm30s

    in Night Vision & Thermal

    Personally you get more value out of the Axion Key model , exact same detection range and sensor/lens . The XM30S has the bigger eye display that some prefer and recording/WiFi .

    If you do go down the Axion route fold the rubber eye cup back on itself , the view is better IMO .

    Detection range is the same on both .

  14. Pard NV008LRF menu access problem

    in Night Vision & Thermal

    Posted

    It's a known bug awaiting a firmware update.

    You can disable the gyroscope function in the menu, which is the cause of the issue. If you cannot access the menu you can try re-installing the firmware onto the unit.

    A firmware link is available below with instructions..

  20. Dog Fox with the Pulsar Trail 2 XQ50 LRF

    in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns

    Posted

    There doing around 3500fps out of my rifle .

    Hornady Brass, 40gr vmax, 24.4gr N130 , CCI small rifle primer .  Does me out to 300 yds no problem , I don’t really shoot any further .  
     

    I did go through a period of using Nosler Varmageddon which are cheaper slightly , but the jacked a bit thin, whilst they were a bit more explosive they didn’t penetrate as good as the Hornady and I had a few runners, the Hornady they just drop ..

    I’ve never used my .243 since I got the .223 for foxes , so much quieter and less recoil , you can just watch stuff drop unlike the flip from the .243 .. both great calibres though , I might revisit it at some point and put another scope on it ..

    Poor night as it has been all this last week with humidity well over 90% for most of the week, resulting in poor thermal transmission.

    Travelling down the track, that runs through the centre of the farm, this fella was visible on the sky line from the vehicle mounted setup, so I headed another 250yds down the track and he was sat in some plough that has been left due to this consistent pissing down weather...sent a 40gr vmax from the .223 his way..

    Your's most in patient ?

    If you like a Browning Trigger fair play , but they are shite,  every person I know who had bought one , got rid of it straight away .. In comparison a Tikka T1x is similar money and much better ..
