Thread: Pard NV 007s review

If I was shooting shorted ranges, under say 200m and/or using the unit on a rimfire for rabbits I would probably go for the 940nm version.
Since I wrote that review I imported and experimented with an additional IR laser mounted on the rifle, this is a laser and not an LED IR. It is a Black Sun EC20 which are very high quality IR lasers. I found that there was no meaningful improvement over the Pard IR even with both units running at the same time. This speaks volumes for the quality of the Pard built in IR, which is also a laser unit.
with the new unit which has the range finder I am able to better assess effective viewing range. Just the other night looking down into a gully I was able to easily get a positive ID in 2 Fallow deer at 465m.
Hope this helps.

Yes very helpful Thankyou.
