    F/S: Pulsar Trail XQ50 thermal scope

    Selling my Pulsar Trail XQ50 purchased as a retirement present a little less than a year ago (April 15th 2018). There is nothing wrong with it, and used very little. I'm the only owner and used it on a Tikka T3 bolt action 223 rifle with suppressor. Very soft shooting! I've taken great care of...

    Night Vision Thermal monocular -resale value

    I sorta know the answer to this question "you're asking too much money", but I'm a little disappointed in the resale value of my Flir LS 64 monocular. I hate to give it away since I know how much money I paid for it. So my question: is it because the advancements in technology? Are there...

    Night Vision Armasight Nemesis 6X (quick silver)

    What are the Hide's NV members thoughts on this dedicated NV scope? I'm yote hunting from 100-225 yds with a bolt action 243 or 223. The Nemesis is more in my price range however I've never used the white phosphorus or quick silver before. My clip on is green. Is it a big deal or not? I...

    Night Vision Dedicated Night Vision Scope

    Long time listener ... first time caller. No wait, thats something else. I have the LS64 thermal, and a NV clip on for yote hunting which works great, but I'm itching for a dedicated night vision scope for a bolt action rifle. I guess an option would be to attach my clip on to my bolt...

    Rifle Scopes Burris 2-7X32 scout scope for 300 blkout?

    I have a 300 blackout using 170 grain bullets going about 1950 fps. The bullet drops 8.9" at 200 yards and over 33" at 300 yards so I doubt if I would shoot over 200 yards with this rifle. I thought a small Burris scout scope 2-7 x 32 would be a good fit for this rifle without spending a ton...

    Night Vision Clip on NV question onto my 308 semi auto

    I have a DPMS 308 and need to buy a scope for my NV clip on however I'm worried about the front sight on my 308 getting into the way of my NV clip on view. Do I need to mill the front sight off? Is this going to be a problem? It also appears I'll need to get a smaller scope 10" tactical vs a...

    Rifle Scopes Scope choices for a semi auto 308 - illumination not necessary

    I have a DPMS 308 16" barrel with a Miculek comp and need a scope for no more than 400 yds shooting 170 gr bullets. Doubt I'll go any further than 400 yds because of our range limitations. I do not need illumination. I'd like to stay in the $500-800 price range and not have to sell a kidney...

    Night Vision First NV purchase - clip on

    After buying my thermal LS64, now it's time to buy Night Vision. I've decided on the Armasight CO-HD Gen 2+ clip on from Delta. I like the clip on system so I can use my existing scopes and the price is right. I will only have the opportunity to use my NV a few times a year for yote hunting...

    Does it hurt to dry fire a rifle? (Tikka T-3 243)

    Does it hurt to dry fire a new bolt action Tikka T-3 rifle? Put in an old piece of brass in the chamber? Buy a snap-cap of some sort? Sorry for the dumb question .... be gentle. Scott

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt/Bender 5x25x56 P4F and Tikka T-3 243 cal Stainless Lite .... do they work together

    A couple years back I saved my pennies and bought a Schmidt / Bender 5x25x56 P4F and this week bought a new Tikka T-3 243 cal which should be at my house later this week. I also bought the 20 moa rail for mounting a scope. Hate to buy another scope when I have a high dollar SB scope already...

    Bolt action rifles and McNett Camo wrap questions

    I ordered my Tikka T-3 stainless lite in 243 for coyote hunting. The stock is black and of course the barrel is stainless. I thought about wrapping the barrel and stock with McNett Camo Wrap to blend into the environment but I'm wondering if it will have a "bad affect" on my accuracy? The T-3...

    Tikka T3 Lite Stainless 243 and bullet weight

    I have a precision rifle in 243 and I've used it for competition shooting using the Tubb 115 gr dtac bullets. I recently started coyote hunting and want to stick with a 243 but I don't want to use my precision rifle. I planned on buying the Tikka T3 Lite Stainless but read in the forum the...

    Night Vision LS64 purchase ..... word of thanks.

    I don't post much but I lurk, and read as much as possible to learn. Over the past few months I have taken hours and hours to read your posts / comments about the various thermal units. Which to buy first, thermal or night vision? I finally pulled the trigger and bought the LS 64 instead of...
