Thread: A question on your shooting using nv techniques

I use a handheld thermal spotter and NV scope on dedicated 223 mostly, sometimes use green led torch mounted on my daytime 223 if that’s what I have with me. Scan with thermal and if animals are close I’ll work in closer if necessary using thermal, smaller lense with wider FOV so handy for this. If I need to cover bigger distances I use a headlamp with red led on lower setting, lighting ground directly in front of my feet to see where I’m going if necessary. Otherwise I just take it slowly if there’s enough light to see my way. Only use thermal with my left eye to help preserve my right eye night vision. Adjust NV screen brightness and contrast as necessary also to help preserve vision. That’s what works for me.
