matt_hooks 188 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) As long as you don't use any artificial light source, I think it's legal. Need to check the general licences as I know for some there is a "one hour after sundown to one hour before sunrise" exclusion. Edited to add, the general licence only covers woodies for "public health protection", but there is no specific limitation against night shooting. There is against the use of "any sighting aid for night shooting" so NV is out, and it's debatable whether you'd get away with an illuminated reticule.
