Don't buy a thermal scope without watching this video first! With ben from huntthenight.com.au

In this one I discuss the importance of Base Magnification when selecting a thermal scope. What you want is your thermal scope to be operating at its optimum magnification, and that is always going to be its base magnification.
Figure out which base magnification you need, then head on over to huntthenight.c... to browse our large range of Thermal Scopes!

Brilliant explanation pal. 👏

[@HuntTheNight]

Cheers mate.

[@rogbec01]

Best review ever! Definitely need x4 base mag for foxing

Any test for nightech ms 19? Tnx

[@fosterechalimbana2160]

doing a good job & like this

[@roseybut]

Thanks mate. I was hung up on getting the biggest sensor but you've put me straight. Looking for a foxing thermal scope to replace my IR NV I know what to get now.

[@HuntTheNight]

Good stuff Lance, glad I can help!

[@dextermorris7096]

I was not planning to.

[@stevewhyte862]

Question..Ive seen a few pop up as second hand ...Would after checking out that it works ok ..To buy a second hand 1 ..or after a few years use they tend not to work ...at all ..as well ..Any time frame in usage advice .??

[@HuntTheNight]

Hi Steve, Really depends on how the unit has been looked after and what the unit is. There's no blanket rule.

[@stevewhyte862]

@@HuntTheNight so if its been well looked after..in good condition...Than the question is ..is there a End life for a Thermo scope? ?..Hence a time in its life it stop working ( 10 years ...or 15 or 20 )

[@HuntTheNight]

@@stevewhyte862 There isn't an end of life as such, but there has been a huge technology jump in the last 3-5 years.

[@Sanus180]

With the RL42 on a 308 how far out could you accurately take out a fox ? 150 to 250m or more?

[@HuntTheNight]

If you're a good enough shot, the scope will handle it.

[@stevewhyte862]

R THEY any good at say 500 mt to 700 mt plus with 222 say ..Roo or Fox ... ( Day time normal scope ive never had any problems )

[@HuntTheNight]

@@stevewhyte862 Depends which model, the LH25 would probably do it best having a bit more base magnification but in general I think you'd struggle with a thermal scope at those kind of ranges. The advantage that a daytime scope has at those ranges is that it is optical zoom not digital zoom. You could see a heat dots at 700 meters, but in terms of identification you would need to be a fair bit closer. Foxes you would see out to around 300-400 and given how foxes move you should be able to know its a fox. The other issue with thermal is you cannot tell the difference between a wallaby and a small roo or different roo species.
Hope that helps.

Hunters are pathetic cowards in the daylight... Now their pathetic cowards in the dark.

[@HuntTheNight]

Do you have a better way to deal with foxes and cats that are responsible for more extinction of Australian natives than any other cause?
Or do we just go survival of the fittest and allow them to continue to decimate our native wildlife?

[@HuntTheNight]

Still waiting for you to tell us about your plan to deal with feral and invasive species…..

[@crogunson2061]

Back in your box you haven't a clue,stay online & let the rest of us get on with it.
