from northumberland I got the chance of cobra merlin so took it with out any real expectations it's been in storage for a year or so but now I have retired and have time on my hands I would like to make the best use of it .The situation is this, most of my permissions are remote areas and so I use lamps for 223 and 22lr and no one bat's an eye but I do have a permission closer to me that's sensitive when lamps are seen by joe public.So dipping my toe into NV I asked on other forums that have NV only as a topic about the merlin now all say illumination is the way to improve the unit but I get mixed views on the best/value illuminator to use I was offered the use of a 1000n laser to try out but as yet I have not herd anymore from the guy who offered .
Came on this forum to try and get a more informed group of folks to advise me.
1 do i continue with trying to get the merlin to go out to 70yrds and see if NV is the way to go
2 do I forget the idea of cheap merlin as an introduction to N.V.
any advice will be taken on board
but not necessarily acted on 
cheers Dave.
