Yukon NVRS Titanium 2.5x50

also is this nvrs 2.5 just for airguns or cud i put it on a 7mm hunting rifle?

any advice on what night vision i could get for around the same price?

what is the problem with it heating up?how long can u use it for in one nght before it gets too hot?

ive been trying to purchase a baigish 5p, cant find anyone who supplies to the u.k,,, any advice on where i can purchase one from?

hi there rvwessel

i can see your problem, you can be seen then? well try not to use that darn ir lamp, thats whats giving you away, if you can see them they can see you! as for your scope being seen put a stockin over it, rob one of the wife/ girl friend???

its a cheap way of hiding it from keen eyes and it works for me, it wont work for that darn ir lamp, like i said long ago, dont get a cheap night sight, go for a gen 2/3 that way you wont realy need an ir light at the ranges your shooting over, still thats life, as for the power of your rifle 400ft pre sec is not bad! its only a toy realy, try puting in a biger spring? or get a better rifle, sorry to burst your bubbel, but there's nothing more i can say to help i still don't wont to be smacked in the chops with a ball doing 400ft per sec, it hurts! as for the chaps not saying that they have been hit, there not playing the game, are they! so dont play with them? or do this your self? get really close to him and smack him in the back of the head with the dutt, now ask him if hes not been hit! if he sayes he's not, hit him again but harder.

have fun, be safe, mike t

ps, would you like to use my rifle? you would take him right out the game forever at 150yds with the first hit, and thats a promise too, he wont be cheating no more!

I have been using the sight and it works great. The IR gives away your position. All is not perfect though.

Here is my problem. Other players are using flashlights and the way they are sighting me is on the reflection on my scope. The strategy I have been using is to train the scope on them and wait for a good shot, hit them, and then move up. My gun is fairly accurate but anything over 50 feet is not a sure hit and I'm sure not every shot on target has the victim calling himself out. For many of the guys it has to be a stream of shots hitting them or they don't call themselves out. To move is often to give yourself away and there is always the question who else is following your movements. You can't watch the entire field with the scope at once. I wonder if there is a protective lens that is maybe cone shaped to disperse the light? Any ideas?

Worse still, I play against one other night scope that is on a hopped up (read 600 ft per second where most sanctioned fields and my gun caps at 400 fps) plastic with metal wrapped BB (is there such a thing or is he really shooting plain metal?) Gilly suit wearing guy with a single shot bolt fed gas sniper gun who waits for you to move and then strikes. He can hit you from about 100 feet away accurately. My gun is electric full auto and makes noise so you know where I am once I shoot. Not so with his gun. Further, we always play the same game, elimination (his choice and there doesn't seem to be a way to budge the game selection, he is our boss at work after all). He will let his entire team be desimated and wait in hiding for us to advance. I suppose we could wait like him but that would be an incredibly long/boring game. Twice we blew through his team and were left with only Gilly-boy. I was hit out twice tonight with several near misses (we don't count gun hits) and never knew where he shot from. Only the body and head shots count. He mowed through our team one by one. How do you look for cover when he could be anywhere. He often shoots for my lens since it is a bright reflection in his night scope and I have two dents on the scope casing (the lip around the lens) that must be from his gun. If that hit the glass I'm sure it would crack. I have invested too much time/dollars to see it toasted by his gun. I am just not picking him up or even the reflection on his scope. He does have a wrap on his gun that might be hiding it. I wonder if he is letting the wrap just flop over his scope and still sighting through it. I have found that I can cover my scope with my hand leaving a 1/2 inch crack between two fingers and I am still able to see images through my scope with only a little drop in clarity/birghtness. Has anyone used a night scope in this situation? What was the most effective tactic you used?

That actually looks really good! The only thing i would ask about is additional ir illumination. Does it provide any? If not it should say and it should also provide a picture of how well it works or not. I am sure it should work ok, don't see a reason why it wouldn't.

Hello,

The digital system is dead. The company that was developing it is going out of business due to development issues and some unlucky business decisions going bad. Nobody is offering a digital system. Also, the digital system was designed for hunting small game, or large game at great distances. Not good for airsoft at all.

The Yukon Gen2 NVRS is a perfect scope for your application. It will give you a wide Field Of View and the ability to see in the dark without the use of an additional IR source or "light". Therefore, you will not be able to be seen.

I strongly reccomend the Yukon!

As said the 1+ gen scopes, can only be of use to 25/35yrds as standard, but simply adding a quality Infa red lamp, will boost the vision by x3+ to 70-100yds depending on size, on tagret. Obviously the larger the target the better to see at distance, expect bunny's to 40yds ok. Fox to 60 & larger animals to 80+ yds.!

Thing is to check though , & i tried all the gen 1 models, (at great expense) Take a tip, there are 'trolls' wandering around at night !! I almost wiped a horse out, that had gone stray, where it shouldnt have been..I always double check the target with a good lamp 1st !!

Enjoy.

Hi guys

If you could please help me with some advice, it would be great.

I am looking for a night vision scope to mount on a .30-06 Springfield for night time kudu culling. I only came across this Yukon scope, and have no idea if it is worth ordering.

1. Will it be able to handle recoil of the 3006?

2. Will I be able to use it in the daytime?

3. Is it very cumbersome and clumsy to mount and operate?

Please give me some feedback on this and possibly recommendations on other products if this Yukon is not up for it.

Thanks a mil

Stefan

i just tryed out some thing that was fun?

i fitted my light forse gun light to my night sight (a very poor one at that) a pns 4.5(yuck) with an ir filter over it from cobra that cost me £20 and my range from my pns sight has gone up from 20yds to 90yds or more? and is twice as bright at 90 yds as it is in day light??? well thats got to be a cheap way of boosting your range if your night sight is a bit naf, or your been silly and put a x2 on the thing, that realy knocks them down dont it? and its a lot cheeper than a lazer plus i can still use me light for lamping if i wont to, just one word of worning, dont use the light to much as it gets hot like very hot, its only a very dim glowing red light though, so the bunnys wont mind it, so lads why not give this a go? it realy worked out fine for me and my sight was realy naf to start with, this will work on any gen type night sight, its cheap and it works, but your still humping a light around with you, happy hunting be safe

all this talk about nv sights is wetting me tung!

i was going to get a gen 2 as there at least 4 times better than gen 1 but there three times the price, so decided to stick with my lamping kit for a year or so, at least with this set up i can take a bunny with a head shot at sixty five yeards with my 40ftlb theoben, or at 100 yards with my .22 rim fire,and get a very cleen kill, both of these shots are a lot farther than the gen 1 nv scopes can see, so my point is why should i spend all that cash when im doing ok right now with what iv got? or am i missing the point here? could it be your just bosting?

if so, twenty yards for a bunny? even a head shot? (you should be able to shoot there wiskers off at that range,) now thats not sport, thats just killing for the sake of it, now try setting a target up at 35 yards, and keep shooting at it till you can hit a ten pence bit every time,

with your gen 1 nv sight! i bet you give up on it first, then try out a gen 4/5 sight, you should hit it then just fine, lot of dosh for another fifteen yards, but thats not your fult, its only an air rifel, now try it out on a 308/7.62mm you should get at least a mile out of it,

Hi Tom,

Thaks for response, your review and the tip about the laser for range finder was very helpful. I bought a NV monocular and a Yukon spotting scope on Soviet Bazaar, both products arrived in perfect conditions (these people deserves special consideration). I was indecisive between the Yukon 2.5 x 50 and Dipol D-141 M, but finally I'm decided for D-141 M (I bought it on FSU Conections). The hi-resolution Russian tube is exactly the same as the Yukon's NVRS 2.5 x 50, but the optics is maybe a bit better. As soon as possible I publish a review about D-141 M on this website.

By the way, you have great PCP air gun.

Bye,
