sir-slots-alot Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hi Chaps. Got a call from a farmer yesterday saying he'd had several chichens taken and he had seen a fox sniffing about in the day time. I wanted to get the shot on video, so I fitted my new video camera to the back of the NV scope and headed to the farm with my trusty 223. Positoned my self in the middle of the field that the farmer he reported seeing the fox earlier that day. Started calling .. and watched as it came running in. (Watch in big screen mode) Here is my first attempt is filming in night vision. Although I dont think this classes as a long range shooting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA3pDKUttCU All the Best Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoowhoop Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Impressive. Nice job and good bit of filming. What NV and camera were you using, out of curiosity? Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v-max Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Very nice i take it you used the screen of the camera to look at & take the shot from??. Very good footage & shows the power of NV as a tool for fox control cheers for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi - the scope is a 6 mag sm3S2 in Hypergen flavour. Its a good bit of kit and it has certainly earned its keep. Vmax. Yes , the shot was taken by looking into the camera veiw finder , I must say it felt a bit strange. I had to rig something up to stop the backlight from the camera screen lighting me up like a roman candle. Thanks for the comments ATB AL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gutted when I had to sell mine but hopefully Craig from Third Eye Tactical is geting the full benefit. I must admit I wasnt a fan of the illuminated reticle, I found balck on green a lot more easy on the eye. Do you find the provided illuminator sometimes a bit too much even on the lowest setting?
