[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 2619738, member: 11837"] I agree a night vision/ thermal scope will be very costly and not really needed they sell and make many very good bight time hunting lights that mount to a rifle that will work to a bout 200 yards and will cost a fraction of the costs of a thermal.night vision optic! NEXT if possible have you tried asking your local game warden to set up a bear trap and trap the sucker and have it moved FAR away(a 100+ mils or they will most times come back) this way, later in the yrs maybe a hunter can harvest it, rather than it just being a crop damage kill! I would gather setting up a bear cage trap(there on trailers) would be pretty easy for the game warden to place and some easy food will lure it in over getting zapped to get to the honey I have helped trap and tag many dozens of bears and relocated many of them! so call it food for thought, but if not willing top trap, again, a good rifle mounted score will get the job done for you and also, this company actually sells motion activated lights set ups, for placing over bait, so you can have the animal lighted up and you can be a distance away and shoot they also make and sell good rifle mountable lights( I own a few now, 10+ yrs old and still working fine on original batteries too, which is amazing on that side alone HAHA!) here is a link to a packaged deal on the light set up for rifle(charger and accessories) they are sold all over, so might find a better price on AMazon or like sites? but they make quality products IMO!
