    Night Vision Range Finders

    I'm with P&Y on this one. Having been heavily involved in the original shit show and seeing how it was handled, I can firmly say I'll never take that gamble again.

    Night Vision Super Yoter C - Any Experience Yet?

    It was in the menu on mine. (I think it's actually Bluetooth). I could turn it on, and my phone could find it but I couldn't connect with a password. I'm just relaying info, please understand that it may not be accurate or work the way I understand it.

    Night Vision Super Yoter C - Any Experience Yet?

    Unless you're in a hurry, you might hold off for a bit. They offered to replace my scope this month with one that has some software updates. One of the updates mentioned was turning on Wi-Fi to allow recording to a mobile device. I DON'T know if the update will be backwards compatible though...

    Night Vision Thermal clip on POI discussion.

    Interesting. I would have said that UNITY meant that the SIZE was the same, but POSITION may not be. It's entirely possible for 1mil on the reticle to equal 1mil of distance at the target, although in a different spot. Using your definition, my Yoter-C never achieves Unity because it is far...

    Night Vision Thermal clip on POI discussion.

    Also, I plan on modifying my scope sled with an additional rail in front that has live 1moa angular adjustments in the horizontal plane. The idea is that I can mount a day optic to the rear rail and zero it on a target. Then while everything is stationary, I can introduce a thermal into the...

    Night Vision Thermal clip on POI discussion.

    I'm going to start a new thread for the discussion that's taking place in the Eotech/Theon. My last question was. What is the definition of Unity related to causing a shift in the image that the thermal provides. I thought Unity simply meant that there was a 1-1 ration in the size of the...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    What's the definition of unity? Edit. I started a new thread if anybody would care to take this discussion over there.

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Agreed. I posted a video elsewhere, but when you remove the viewing eyepiece and install the clip on adapter to the Yoter-C, it shrinks the screen size from a full 1024 to what appears to be 640. So 1 pixel in the front equals 1 pixel out in the rear. Shrinking it leaves black margins around the...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    Most of the flex happens where the Rusan mount is split to allow it to close around the bell. You can visually see it deflect. It comes right back to zero as soon as you remove your hand though. I've already ran those tests because people think using your hand on a scope to steady it on a...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    With the Yoter-C on a clamp-on objective mount, I can see the reticle move off target ~2" by just resting my hand on it to push a button. Some body else mentioned it, but I think the key is that light doesn't pass through a thermal like it does a toilet paper tube. The light is taken straight...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    What I don't understand about the pixel IN has to equal the pixel OUT theory is that it depends on where the thermal is aimed that determines what that pixel IN represents. Using that theory, once the Yoter was calibrated so the pixels in and pixels out were aligned, you should be able to swap...

    Night Vision EOTECH CLIP ON THERMALS ( Full details)

    From my little experience with the Yoter-C you're basically adding a second aiming device with the screen shifters. If it moves or deflects or the mount shifts, so does your POI. Example. Lock the rifle down in a vice and aim the optic at a 100yd target. Now add your thermal to your rail...

    Badger EFR Installation and pulsar krypton

    I'm in kind of the same boat with a Manners T2a. Every EFR I've seen has been installed at the end of the stock. If I point the rail towards the back, there's only about a 4" gap to the objective of my NX8, so I'm thinking it will work.

    New barrel insufficient counterbore

    @Terry Cross Well said. This was a recipe for failure from the start on both parties. The OP should have given better info and the smith never should have taken the job without asking more questions and having the action in hand.

    New barrel insufficient counterbore

    That's the first I've heard of that. 700's tend to have a range of headspace measurements from the factory, throw in an aftermarket bolt and a recoil lug and I'm not sure how you would determine the headspace spec without the action in hand. I'd be curious to know how it works out.

    New barrel insufficient counterbore

    Was this a prefit? I'm assuming not since it's a 700, unless it's a remage.

    New barrel insufficient counterbore

    I'm not sure that .005 will be the difference between functioning and not. You should be able to ESTIMATE the needed counterbore by measuring the radial thickness of the extractor from the hook to the outside, multiplying the thickness X2 and adding it to the diameter of your case rim. Add...

    Night Vision Super Yoter C - Any Experience Yet?

    I could do the same with mine, except it would be several long and short button pushes to enter the menu to change the gun profile setting each time, in addition to keeping track of what zoom level you're That would be a giant pain in hunting situations. I believe the pixel at the center of...

    Night Vision Super Yoter C - Any Experience Yet?

    For anybody interested, the new scope the Pro-Staffer (it wasn't @kirsch ) re-tested puts the 2x and 4x shots in nearly the same place as mine does. The original prototype he demo'd worked like @chase723 's scope and put the 1x, 2x, and 4x shots into the same 1" group. I think it's BS that...
