[QUOTE="Flintlock shooter, post: 2392784, member: 105834"] I have hunted with Thermal since 2014. I started out trying to scan with my rifle and learned very quick that it wasn't going to work. I use a monocular to scan with. Some points that I think are important: 1. You get what you pay for!! 2. NV will never perform nearly as well as Thermal. 3. Always use only one eye when hunting with Thermal. Don't "wash out" both eyes! 4. Make absolutely sure you know what you are shooting at. 5. There is no depth perception in Thermal. You really need to have a LRF or know distances. Normally you can see well enough to use any LRF to get distances to what you can see (rocks, trees, bushes, hill sides, etc) so you have an idea of what's in range. 6. Good things aren't cheap and cheap things aren't good. (Refer to 1 above) [/QUOTE]
