    A short film produced with thermal camera and scope.

    Put this together using the Conotech Tracer 50 handheld scanner and a Conotech Polaris Riflescope.

    What sort of range are those bunnys at? Looks to be pretty good definition.

    The rabbits were shot at 50-100m. At the the 33 second mark there is a paddock of rabbits at around 300m. We had a strong tail wind and they didn't stick around long. The polaris scope we were using was a conotech prototype due out in 2022. Video has been upscaled and downscaled and facebooked so its a bit munted. The production model will be sub 6k but a market killer for its price. One of its best features is that you can enter ballistic drop on its custom reticles and it draws a pretty accurate ballistic curve. When you use the integrated rangefinder the software places the hold over point on the reticle and you simply point and click. Incredibly effective with subsonic ammo out to long range.

    The definition on the units is significantly better than the video. I took some video the other day and it didn't really look like what I was looking at at all really. Way more washed out.

    Looks to be effective rabbits unaware of impending dome.
