Good to see Tim back, great show
great show and good to see mr ripley on the channel
Very good film from the gang, yes I would like to say every one would learn something from this but the only problem I can see is the majority of vermin shooters will not have that amount of cash to get good thermal scope and spotter , but even at the lower end of the market with NV or thermal it is still a game changer. Brill film thanks Fieldsports.
Great to see it back fantastic in-site to products keep them coming please
Very interesting; great watch gentlemen.
Side by side comparison is brilliant way to work out what you like/need, attended Hunt the night demo night recently, within 20mins worked out what I needed.
& what did you decide from this terrible side by side comparison?
@@stevenlord782 decision after Australian hunt the night demo night was Accolade XP50 pro 2 & GSCI X6100.
@Tom Glover that was definitely a better review Tom. I honestly couldn't see the point of this review.
The Merger is a pain in the balls if you value your natural night vision.
With a monocular, you leave one eye unaffected, but use the Merger and you are sodding blind for the next 15 mins.
A decent monocular wins hands down (IMHO)
And I'm a 'Pulsar' fan -boy too 🤣... so not 'hating' on the brand.
That is very true, but I have to add. for some people its difficult to look through a monocular, it seems older people who use glasses etc find it way better to look at 2 screens instead of one. We have a Helion xp 50 pro and my dad bought a merger after looking through it because he could actually see a lot better through it lol
@@Koelkop getting older is a pain in the arse.... I'm suffering from it myself 🤣
@@MKChase-uj9vx 🤣
Very interesting to see what people like and some surprises there!
Enjoyed that thanks team..👍
It is very interesting to see that is out there for the use of.
As a newbie who's still waiting for their license to come through, this episode has helped to cut through the minefield of scopes. I still haven't made my mind up on what will be my choice when it comes to finally purchasing something, as the list is still pretty long, but price will play a contributing factor on my decision. A practical, budget friendly set up will be my only option, so it would be good to see an episode on this. Thanks again for a great show.
Go for the Hik Alpex mate incredible picture and the sound quality is of the scale
@@theratbuster Cheers...just had a look at you videos...do you also use a lamp when ratting?
@@GeorgeMcKnight hi mate no just the day/night scope I have just received the new ATN Xsight5 today as well so I’ll be mounting that on the Red Baron
Glory board , classic!
Excellent. Very informative and entertaining at the same time. Lamps definitely do still work. I started with a lamp. Then spotted with a lamp and shot with NV. Now I ocasionaly spot with a lamp but generaly spot with thermal and shoot with NV. Thermal scopes are still too rich for my blood.
Integrated LRF and ballistics is pretty much the current standard for NV and thermal. Hopefully we will see some tests of whats coming onto the market now.
Nice 1 team all round,
Cheap fox using a 13k unit, lottery winning to pay for that 1 here, lol.
No4 of the scopes didn't have its cover all the way open in the first test. Hence probably why it came in last place.
Where's the drone pro 😢
Ah the drone pro! Brilliant scope in its day, sadly no longer in production 🤷🏻♂️
@@260rips it's still producing great results for me hopefully it keep going
So which scope was the winner
I love to help test it
Does anyone have any experience with the infiray th50 v2 in poor weather conditions? (High humidity, fog, rain)
Alpex is way ahead of all the night vision scopes on display in this video
I prefer the atn xsight 5 over the alpex for image, alpex for features such as freeze frame zero
Night and thermal test in daylight. Quality test
ha ha The Glory Board . funny .
The all taking the piss. This technology has been out for years. Ask Scottcountry what there mark up is on merger lrf
I’m sure there’s a large mark up on many things we buy that’s why companies make them. If I could build my own thermal spotter with a built in lrf for half the price maybe I would but I can’t so if I want it I’ll pay the price for it 🤷🏻♂️
Putting a thermal in a freezer?...what the hell does this prove...how many -20 conditions do we experience in this country.
