On Ep 409 of the podcast Hans and Jason discuss predator hunting tournaments and the push in several states over the last decade that has successfully led to these contests being outlawed. While this isn’t a trend we think will spread to all states immediately, it is something we as night hunters need to be aware of and pay close attention to. Rights that aren’t defended can be slowly lost. Tune in for this discussion and feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments below.

Tonight on The Late Night Vision Show we review the AGM Rattler V3 35-640 LRF thermal rifle scope. This scope features a 2.5x base magnification, a 640 resolution sensor and a LRF built directly into the lens. With an onboard ballistic calculator and an American Defense Manufacturing QD mount included, the V3 brings serious capability to predator and hog hunters. We break down image quality, real world performance and ID range and discuss whether this new Rattler upgrade is a scope you should consider.

The Late Night Vision Show is back again this week with a full field review of the InfiRay Outdoor Hybrid Compact HC50R, the first ever thermal rifle scope with a 640 resolution 10 micron thermal sensor! We explore what 10 microns really does for image clarity and detail and how the HC50R performs in real world hunting scenarios. If you’re curious about the performance of this scope, be sure to watch this review.
