Hi folks. I'm a keeper from Leicestershire who's about to seek a first time night vision set up. Not got masses of cash to spend but a bit put by. I've lamped for more years than I care to remember but I want to go to the next level. The unit will go on a dedicated rifle. My fields are mostly small the biggest being 36 acres. I like the idea and cost of digital but what do you chaps recommend.

Cheers

Hi Rowdy & Welcome

It all depends on your budget

I use an N750 fitted with a doubler & an NM800IR Illuminator & think it's awesome - cost around £1600

Hi Rowey, welcome to the forum. What part of Leic's?

Were you thinking of making a DIY rig or buying a ready made one? There's a few about ready to hit the market in the next few months.

Welcome to the forum, Rowey.

Apart from the home-builds, there's a lot of lads on here using off the shelf nv, both tubed and digital, so you should be able to get plenty of advice.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Spill the beans! tell us how much is your budget and we will then know on what to advice/suggest to you.

Thanks for the replies. Been a bit busy so sorry for the delay. I have got myself N750 which to be honest is pretty impressive. However I have hit a snag. I was going to mount it on a steyr scout but the 'weaver' mount doesn't fit as its not true weaver.I have a tikka t3 I could mount it on instead but to be fair the steyr would be better. Has anyone come across this or know anyone who has fitted one to a scout rifle and the adapter if known

Cheers

PS. I'm not far from rothley for the chap who asked.
