Love your videos! Always look forward to you new ones. I can only shoot a sub 12 as I failed my medical… never been in trouble with the law, my uncle owns many acres of land but because I have depression they rejected me… anyway keep up the great work.👌🏽 Outdoor life heals many things…👍🏼
I have been watching your videos for a while now Simon, and one thing you do has stood out in my thoughts, you respect every animal that is taken. That, to me, is the mark of a real Sportsman. Well done with these two livestock stealing faxes. You did what you were asked to do, and you did that very well. Thumbs up indeed!
Night vision has gotten so darn amazing. When I was in the Marines we had that 1st. Gen. & we thought that was just the bees knees; a step up from a starlight scope for sure. Nice shooting brother, great video. Thank you.
Simon could you do a video on what is needed for mounting PBIR-X to a scope please? Just invested in a PARD NV007SP LRF and a PBIR-X.. not sure what to do next.. cheers from the West of Ireland!
Simon, be careful we're not in our 20's anymore! I love that equipment on this hunt, when you had it dialed in, it was like daylight and clear at all distances! Well done as usual and have a great rest of your weekend! Be careful out there😀😀💪💪
Great video! I really enjoy it. I am new to night vision scope and I trying to learn how to use my Infiray TD50L. Could you please let me know what kind of bracket are you using to mount your IR illuminator on the TD70L?
Hi Simon, I’ve recently been able to acquire a Sako 75A varmint 6mm ppc rifle. Any reloading tips you can give me as towards powders, primers, how far to seat bullets, what brass yours shoots well, full length resize or just neck size. Anything else you feel comfortable telling me would be appreciated so much. Thanks, Vic
Outfoxing the foxes again. With the way the owl and cat's eyes are so bright, and they are both looking in your direction, I'm wondering if their eyes are reflecting the IR light from your illuminator, and they can see it shining at them like a spotlight? Just a thought.
great video but i`ve just forgotten what was that infiray and the pb something illuminator ,you only told us about 20 times and it`s just slipped my mind
Great video Simon . I’m sure you can get some anti fog spray for the lenses . I had some it worked well . Keep up the great work . Well deserved laying out in those conditions take care 👍
Ye cheers Mark when i used to race Moto X we used to put fairy liquid in our googles top stop them steaming up on the start line i do reckon that will work as well pal.
Brilliant vid as usual,need to get another digital nv scope and this looks the business I have a wrath 4k max on my 223 at moment with a sniper hog coyote cannon ir but this seems so much better with little pixelation there seems to be a constant raft of new scopes coming out would you recommend your choice over the wraith 🤔thanks
Its between the Alpex C50 and TD70 Simon and all do the job but i honestly think for distance at night this TD70 has the edge but at normal distances they are all virtually the same.
Great video as always Simon, that TD70 scope looks nice and sharp . Are you reloading the 40's as Hornady have stopped making the 40gr cartridges .That's good that they work in a 1in 8 . I'm check out my mates new condor spotter shortly, he says I'm a bad influence.😄
Great video as usual. I find leaving the scope and IR etc. in the garage/shed/car for an hour (including any drive) and let them get to outside temps prevents major fogging up, also use some Isopropal alcohol to wipe them, helps a lot.
Great video my friend. I have two questions , am I right that your 1-8 223 shoots 40 or 50 grain bullets ? I have a 1-8 Lantac and it hates anything under 55 grain?? Second my friend , do you have Instagram ? All the best 👍
Looks good that td70 compared to the old td50l daytime was rubbish if it was overcast and not to clever in sunlight or night vision mode. Keep up the good work. 👍

Great clarity on the video on all of the distances and very accurate shooting Simon I know that you have the utmost respect for your query that shows a true sportsmen. The TD70 is a great setup. Cheers Simon and give Jack a pat for me
Hi there Simon I ended up with 35 foxes over about 300 lambing ewes with my Sako in .223 and the night vision and thermal you have shown in previous videos ( Hikmicro) . Thanks for your videos I learnt a lot from your style. I also saved a tonne by using night vision for the scope- people talked me out of getting one but as you show they are very capable on foxes. I use the tripod usually but there is no substitute for a bit of elevation and the bi-pod. I even got one in the nose to take the pelt. I have the 12 twist and have not used the 40gr as it would be suited to my barrel. No silencer allowed here in Australia and I think the higher velocity would crack a bit more than my nice slower 55gr. All the best. I also saw a rat the other day and thought of you. They are not common here and probably not worth a .223 round.
@@simon6ppc246 I have not tried the 40's because the 55s shoot so well but my barrel is probably designed for the 40's. I found even 53gr with higher velocity had a significantly higher muzzle blast. I should have a go just out of interest. All the best going into winter we are going into summer and it seems a bit early too.
Excellent video again Simon, I am just back in from sorting a problem fox out as well. How do you rate the TD70 to the Pulsar C50? Are they on par or is 1 a lot better than the other?
Love your videos! Always look forward to you new ones.
I can only shoot a sub 12 as I failed my medical… never been in trouble with the law, my uncle owns many acres of land but because I have depression they rejected me… anyway keep up the great work.👌🏽

Once again, a fine display of pest control. Thanks Simon.
Love and respect 🙏
I have never seen a black belly on a fox. Great video.
Ye we get the odd few about Mark others white marks on them as well.
Excellent, a real professional way of working. The animals you see on your moors we see on our marshes in Kent.
Cheers pal.
Think I love your humour and irony as much as your skills. They make a perfect combination 👍👍👍
Keep the videos coming!
Thanks, will do my friend
Thanks Simon for another great video nice bit of kit !
Cheers Alan.
Nice work on the red skins mate 🦊👍

Another great video, gotta watch those pesky bails! Just bought a Oneleaf NV400 Day/Night scope for the R12 will be testing it out soon.
Nice pal that's a good add on.
Super video again well done.
Cheers John
Love your caring side but the job has to be done 👍
Absolutely
Good video, Simon. Those V-MAX bullets seem to work well.
Thanks Charles
Awesome stuff! 😊
Thanks for the visit
Great video as always simon and good shooting to mate
Thanks Paul.
Highly recommend pbir
Too right Ian.
Hi Simon. Enjoyed as usually. Like all good hunters, you respect your quarry. That's nice to see. Big Steve, East Yorks.
Ye cheers Steve much appreciated pal.
brilliant si
Thanks Dave
Don’t mess with your friends, bad things will happen, well shot Simon .
Well ye lol
time 4:09 Can you tell me which infrared light you use and where you bought it?
Ye i use a PBiR X pal off a bloke Called Paul Baker on facebook
Recommend pbir top bloke Paul is
Thanks
My Friend???

Well done informative video-- you work hard to make your shots safe and humaine and this is really appreciated. Stay safe!!
Great shooting as always Si. Do you ever shoot in snow at night, would the extra light affect the NV sight?
I do pal ye and it is harder to hide so to speak.
@@simon6ppc246 I could believe it. Keep up the great work Si, you have a great channel.
Nice work Simon, love the night wildlife and I bet they are happy to see you taking care of business 👍

I bought the bracket off a bloke in the UK who now i think has packed it in pal but if you google you should find others surely.
Top draw again pal ''Reet on the button'' cheers Simon and hope the old lad is ok .

There's to much to write really Vic all i do know is they seem to just shoot any bullet at any speed at any seating depth lol.
Always enjoy your vids bud..like that scope luv them crosshairs as well just checked price of them and you get a lot of scope for £800.
Ye cheers Dave there is some good stuff out there these days i think.

Ye John they do see a slight glow with out a doubt
great video but i`ve just forgotten what was that infiray and the pb something illuminator ,you only told us about 20 times and it`s just slipped my mind
TD70 L with a PBiR X illuminator pal...
Is the image you actually see through the scope the same as the video recording Simon?
Through the scope it always seems better for some reason Nigel but ye it not far off if i be truth full.
I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. Glad I'm not a fox or rat.
Thank you.
Loving them 40gn Vmax bullets 🤓
Ye top bullet

I like the TD70. Very impressive imaging. Sako is impressive as always.
Thank you very much!
Ive been loving the night time images for ages,, I've even been out and bought myself a thermal image spotter ! Its fascinating,, great video 👍🏴
Nice one Phil.
Great Stuff 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Thanks 💯
Nice shooting as always Simon and that TD70 looks a nice bit of kit.
Thanks Jim
Nice video Simon! The IR illuminator at how many Nm do? 850 or 940 Nm?
Its an 850 pal.
Great video as always Simon, that TD70 scope looks nice and sharp . Are you reloading the 40's as Hornady have stopped making the 40gr cartridges .That's good that they work in a 1in 8 . I'm check out my mates new condor spotter shortly, he says I'm a bad influence.😄
Lol ye nice one pal and i do reload and to be fair i have not many 40s left
great work sir :D
Cheers
Jim
Thank you! Cheers!
How does the td70 up against the c50
At distance Gary at night the TD70 has the edge i think pal due to its 5.5 base mag
Simon, those deer look like Red Deer?
Ye they are matt why I call them red 1 and red 2 pal.
Congratulations your quite the hunter. 😊😊😊
Thanks Jay

Looks pretty good to me! Come on then do you think the image is better than the Alpex🤔🦊🦊🎯👌
At distance Miker at night definitely with its 5.5 base mag but say close up like say 50 yards due to 3x base mag the Alpex probably has the edge.

Professional and interesting to watch, the mist swirling about but you coped.
Thanks Simon it was hard work to be fair.
Great vid as always simon ,which do tou prefer td70 or the alpex?
For distance at night deff the TD70 but say close up like ratting the Alpex pal due to both the base mag on either scope
😎👍
Big thumbs up for the channel...
Big thanks
Excellent video again Simon, I am just back in from sorting a problem fox out as well. How do you rate the TD70 to the Pulsar C50? Are they on par or is 1 a lot better than the other?
At distance at night Bunny the TD70 does win but say average distances they are on a par.

maybe not too low by looks
