I have a Pard007 which I use on a Swarovski Z5 3.5/18. I did have some initial issues getting a decent image, I seem to have solved that now by mounting a Laser IR torch forward under the forearm of the rifle. Not sure why the internal IR on the Pard did not perform adequately. It could be because of the lens coatings on the Swaro but I don't think so. I also tried it on a Vortex scope mounted on the same rifle with the same marginal results. This issue could also have been because of glare from the barrel/suppressor. Bottom line is that it seems to be working well now, the takeaway from this I think is that Pard or Sytong you need to be prepared to have a bit of a play around until you get the desired result, they don't always seem to be plug and play.
