I'm on somewhat of a budget and starting out from scratch. I've got roughly $7K to spend and am trying to determine the best use of that budget to get the most out of it.
I'm not looking for tier 1 stuff since I'm certainly not an operator but I'd like to be able to move around in the dark, and deal with coyotes, hogs, and any threats that go bump in the night; probably a 200yrd max. Based on some posts here I'm looking to start with a Danmark Helmet and white phosphorus but that as much as I've determined, unless I decide to drill a pasgt to mount a shroud.
Whats hanging me up is that I don't want to buy things today that I'll end up selling at a loss later to improve my setup, I'd like something pretty well longterm functional. Am I better off dumping most of my budget into a dual tube or bino setup, or would it be wiser to pick up a single PVS14 and a thermal scope like a hogster to cover both bases and have some money left over?
