Hello All;

This site was so helpful when it came to rifles, that I thought I might post a question about NV.
I was going to go with an in-line system for my rifle (where the NV Monical is mounted on the rail infront of the scope).
But as I looked at my needs I began to question this set up.
I will be using my rifle about 80% of the time at night. So I am now wondering if it might be better to get a NV head set? That way there I can move about without having to look via the scope. Does anyone know if switching to a head set up will alter my 0? I wouldnt think so, but its better to ask before I buy.
So; in-line or head set? Your input/advice will be greatly taken.
