  1. They will be replaced by the N450 models soon
  2. I have some a couple of Helion XQ38 available there in very short supply at the minute..
  3. Stavross if you want to look through one on your scope let me know, I'm only in Hartlepool not far from you..I have various IR lasers also..
  4. Heres a link https://www.blackwoodoutdoors.co.uk/1080P-Pard-NV007-Night-Vision-Scope-Add-On-12mm Use NVUK-12MM code for discount.
  5. Personally I prefer the NV007 as you have a much higher variable magnification range with your scope optics, but the NV008 are better than a Photon in terms of image quality, plus there full colour, small and compact and ideal for Bullpup style rifles..
  6. Nice one MIK I have found the MTC Viper/Mamba, Hawke Sidewinder/Airmax really good with them, the cheap Sightrons are also good with them.. Get a laser torch and it will be even better for longer range centre fire shooting. Something like the Solaris SRX or the Sirius XTL , avoid LED based torches there rubbish in comparison .
  7. All that money for a Chinese job.. my opinion not worth it, stick with a Pulsar 17 micron, 50mm lens, packed with features and a 3 year UK warranty from an established brand, basically very similar money, they will not sell well in the UK IMO... limited mounting, no recording, etc.. plus if you come to sell, your not going to have a high demand for it or get as much back as the above..
  8. Yeh like Pav said.. mount the unit to the rifle, adjust the rear eye dioptre unit the icons are sharp, you can fine tune that slightly also later on.... then use the barrel focus ring underneath to get the crosshairs pin sharp and use the scopes side focus to adjust focus of your target at whatever range your shooting at... Once setup you only need to use your side parallax from then on..
  9. Personally I'd avoid as it's pretty naff... a Quantum Lite is much better , but I'd advise saving for a Helion model instead.
  10. Never had a problem with tin foil, just cut it bigger if you cannot see it, then just fine tune contrast/brightness to suit , better to increase mag digitally also to zero , I wouldn't waste money on big daft thermal targets... a lot just use hand warmers out of the pound shop, never used them personally though,.
  11. MIK get a sidewinder and a rear add on I have, you will be impressed combined with a Solaris SRX.
  12. With rear add ons like the NV007 LED torches are not the best to be honest, PBIR X, Sniper wotsit, wicked shite, there all pretty much guff compared to a laser based torch like the Solaris SRX, Dragonfly, etc due to the IR lost through the layers of glass, magnification and coatings... go for a laser it will blow ALL the LED's out of the water for a rear add on..
  13. What I do is cut a 1"-2" square of tin foil stick it on a cardboard box at 50yds, if on the white hot setting it will show black, I then get a rough zero using this. Once on target, I move the target out further using a drawing pin, felt nail, screw, etc into a board with a smaller size, don't push it right in or you will heat the box/board, then heat it with a lighter just the tip (requires a friend, give it 15 seconds to cool the initial excess heat and him/her to get out the way, then fine tune your zero on it at 100yds... Thermal targets are pretty much pointless unless you want to. w
  14. Longshanx I'm literally on your doorstep give me a shout and I'll show you some right kit, get your bank card handy though ...

  16. If the batteries are left in the holder presuming your using the AA battery holder it will not matter as there is no physical connection to drain if you remove the holder.
  17. I use one on the Apex XQ50 LRF, great mounts handy to use and rapid quick to fit.
  18. Had issues with my CZ 452 wood stock model recently.. Thing to check.. Is the barrel free floating.? My wood stock had swelled and was touching the barrel. What torque have you got on the action screws I tested various torque settings on the stock and they had a dramatic effect on the group size... This is what resolved my issue. Is the crown ok, or is it damaged / pitted ?

  20. Give me a shout if you want a N355 Phil
  21. I'm sure Blackwood Outdoors would match or beat any price you see. ?
  22. I prefer the .223 also, less recoil ,quieter... I also own a .243 which I use 58gr vmax in and that offers more power and is equal if not flatter than a .22-250 plus much more versatile.. On a night I just use my 1:12 .223 now with 40gr heads its doing 3750fps using N130 and its basically aim and point out to 300yds..More quiet than all the above and much less recoil.
  23. CRS have .308 rated models for £345 Villaman ???
