[QUOTE="Oi.223, post: 1607418, member: 107540"] I own and have used Gen3 NV and digital nv scopes. I had settled in on scanning with a FLIR PS32 and shooting with a Photon XT. That worked pretty well, but I sometimes struggled with changing from the FLIR to the Photon. I am now using an Apex XD50A thermal scope and I find it much more productive than any other system that I have used in the past. The scope will save zero settings from three different rifles and is not hard to change if you wish to do that. I leave mine on a dedicated rifle as I am too lazy to mess with it and I like building rifles. The most economical way to get a good hunting solution would be to go with a HD19A to scan with and a Photon XT to shoot with. That would work for you for quite a while, but I think you would eventually want to migrate to a thermal scope on the rifle I now do general scanning with my PS32, but refine by looking through the rifle sight. A lot of folks are reluctant to scan with the rifle, but I'm not. I use a primos trigger stick and it's pretty comfortable to scan around with it. You can always try out a setup by renting something from a dealer like UNV if you have doubts about how it will work. [/QUOTE]
