Night Vision hunting Thread

[miket]

Got my newest version done last week. I hate to say this but Im almost ready for deer season to be over so I can start hunting pigs at night again. A few weeks ago I got my YHM 6.8SPC upper and put it on the rifle. I have only tried one load in it ( Hornady 120gr SST ) and it loves it. Will be a fun spring/summer.

Do you put that behind a day scope?

No, it is a digital camera with a lense. The crosshairs are made by using the "privacy zones" in the cameras software. Looks just like regular crosshairs or you can make a dot or whatever. To sight in you fire a shot and without moving the rifle, move the crosshairs to where the bullet impacted.

would love to see a screen shot picture

what make / model camera do you go with

your definitely building a better mousetrap

I'm very interested in the DIY info after you finalize the product

Thought I'd bring my favorite thread on TBH back from the dead. Anyway here's the damage from the last three shots after I got it zeroed.

20" 20 practical from BlackHole Weaponry and AAC 762 SDN-6 suppressor, sandbag and bipod from truck bed.

glad someone else shares my passion for the 20 caliber wildcats

There are a few pics of the screen with crosshairs on a deer at my feeder at night using a previous version of mine but I dont have a pic using this one yet. I dont know if it is a "better" mousetrap but I like to tinker and it is cheaper than the store bought ones though after these various versions ( generations?) Ive made I probably am fast approaching the cost of a store bought one....but like I said, I like to tinker. The camera Im using used a Sony Effio CCD chip. I buy it basically as a component part that I attach a security camera lens to. I machined the housing from aluminum tubing with the ends from plate. I will try to take a pic of the screen tonight.

Here is a cell phone pic I just took. The feeder is right at 100yds away. Keep in mind there is always some loss of clarity when posting.


( this is my back yard, hence the ball in the pic )

Pretty dang cool Miket!

[miket]

Hate to even post this pic because it looks nowhere near as good as it does in real life . I had a heck of a time getting the phone to focus and it kept varying light/dark. It may be a setting on the phone, I dont know.
