Best Rifle Mounted Lamp

[rockingod]

Hi Stevie,

I'm using the BC40 (same one as the pic). It's 830 lumens and will last continuous for about 1.5 hrs on max and 11 hours on min.

Yes I know..... the range is incredible, 300m is correct. It's because they use the latest CREE and LUMINUS extreme high power LED's. They do one (the RRT3) that goes out to 700 mtrs !

JETBEAM UK do a 'special deal' which includes 2 Li-ion rechargeable batteries, charger, holster etc

It does do a brilliant job worth every penny IMHO.

Hi all. Ive just taken delivery of a JETBeam BC40. Will be testing it out over the next week or so and will write a report on it once complete. This is a nice bit of kit claiming over 300 yards range. Take a look at the site.

Just took it out for a spin. Weather not so good but had stopped raining when I got out. I compared it to the Clulite Shootalite that I currently use on my rifle. Pretty much pound for pound the BC40 matched it and has a much tighter beam but still wide enough to make searching ok. Bearing in mind this is against the naked eye, I think looking through the scope at the white light will be better at range. It picked up Rabbits and they didnt seem bothered. On low range I could see easily with the naked eye upto 100 yards and full power 200 yards easily and the far hedgeline that is exactly 260 yards away could be seen with the naked eye, obviously looking through a scope would have been better. So far so good. Just need to get it on the scope now and see what its like. Tried it with the Cluson filters covering it, the red took a lot out of it but the Amber was pretty good. Will need a specific filter for this, the normal lamp filters are too thick. Hoping the Masterlite filters will fit.

Ive had 2 Clulites and currently using the Cluson shootalite. Never ahd an issue with quality. Im not too sure about the led lights though ive not tried them. Do like the idea of a nice tight beem, very light too. Let me know what you decide on and how you get on.

I have those too and have never had an issue with them.
