    Pard nv008 - thoughts?

    After watching hotbarrels posted vid using the pard optic my eyes have been opened to a whole new world of modern NV optics and considering one of those units to replace the old Yukon unit currently fitted to my 22mag .

    Any opinions and input on the 008 would be appreciated before commiting myself if anyone else is using one ??

    The new 008 has a ballistic app in it to help with drop, with a qd mount you can use it on multiple guns as it has 5 profiles can be used day and night I use the pard thermals and rate them

    Is that the 'plus' version @Fat ninja ?
    Have been checking out YouTube but they all appear to be older versions and don't mention the 'plus' part of the title of the new ones .
    Had wondered what the 'plus' actually refers to and if any difference to older units ?

    Apologies mate. Sounded like you might be in the know and I prefer to talk to someone rather than rely on website guff.
    I appreciate your input and thank you.

    No worries, I’ve used the older model a few times certainly worth looking into it’s as mentioned previously can be used day and night has built in ir illuminator, if you get one get a rf model makes life way easier and the new model has a better ir illuminator. Hope this helps
