  1. Pulsar telos xp50 or hikmicro falcon fq50 2.0

    I think people get used to their thermals and how they're set up so when they look through someone else's thermal they don't seem as good. I have fine tuned the brightness and contrast on my Telos XP50 to exactly as l like it. I was out with someone one evening who had a Hik Falcon FQ50 and it...
  2. Annealing

    That is a very good reason to anneal. I've been reloading for 50 years and for 30 of those years was only aware of bench rest shooters annealing their brass. Now it seems that more and more reloading stalkers feel that they need to anneal their brass every few shots. I've always used good brass...
  3. Alpex V2

    That will be good if it does. Was waiting to see which of the new releases got the best reviews. Then get in the queue with all the other punters.
  4. Alpex V2

    I've heard through the grape vine that a new version of the Hikmicro Alpex will be released soon. Any knowledge of this?
  5. 6.5 x 55 140gish load????

    140g Sierra game king in front of N160.
  6. Sold: Toyota Hilux Invincible 2016, 2.4 Auto **£14,750**no vat

    That is a cracker. Is this model fitted with a timing chain?
  7. Night vision scope in woodland.

    @Tim.243 A friend of mine has a drone 10 and same as you often uses it for an evening stalk and then fits the IR for the foxes later. He has used his pbirX on low power in the woods and can see pretty well. Thanks for the input 👍
  8. Night vision scope in woodland.

    Interesting thread and a good video from your Zulus showing the effect of IR splash from near by vegetation. Thanks.
  9. Sold: HikMicro Alpex 4K DNV Scope

    Sending you a PM.
  10. Mighty muntjac!

    Excellent read. My sort of stalking. Thick cover, little moving and much scanning. Up close and personal. Had a similar situation last winter. 2 young bucks moving through cover on a wooded bank. They had no idea l was there. The front muntie offered a chance and l took it. He took off down hill...
  11. Night vision scope in woodland.

    Thanks RMS. Great review and as you say a good deer stalkers binocular. Probably not for me as l would like to use at night to confirm ID at distances beyond the Habrok's IR. Most of my stalking is dawn/dusk in and around woodland so it could be that the Alpex 4k (or the new Nocpix Nite? ) is...
  12. Night vision scope in woodland.

    Hi Dari, Yes l have considered the Habrok HQ35. As you say it seems a good compromise for me. Would be interested to know if the NV + IR is effective in woodland after dark. Also what range they will ID stuff on open ground at night. Like the scopes l would like to see through some.
  13. Night vision scope in woodland.

    I had a Kite for years and rigged up a low powered IR for the darkest nights but it was a big lump and 4x mag. I now use a Telos XP50 spotter and have a Ward T-cepter and Thermion XQ50 scopes.
  14. Night vision scope in woodland.

    Interesting. I have a Telos XP 50 spotter and it's possible to mis identify fox/muntjac/badger in certain circumstances. That is exactly why I'm considering trying an NV scope. I think l need to look through an Alpex and Zulus to see for myself.
  15. Night vision scope in woodland.

    I already use thermal scopes so was just wondering whether NV would help me better ID in wooded field margins etc.
