I wanted to get this thread going. First is set upAttached File PSA CFH 20" AR-15 with YHM Resonator R2. Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x with Steiner C35 clip on. NGI Night Stalker Tripod. This photo was at around 10:00 pm once I learned my phone had a night photo mode. Attached File Hog walking up at about 130 yards. Trees behind at about 400 yards. This image is through a Bering Hogster Vibe 35 my girlfriend is scanning with. Will be used as a scope in the future as well. The RH was around 85% according to the weather app. This was also first time out with the Hogster so still learning settings and focus. Shout out to @KoreyKirsch for recommending the Vibe for what I was looking for. Attached File Hog down. This was my second night night hunting. As this picture was taken had a bunch of coyotes howling all around us. I shot one of them about 30 minutes later. I do not know if this post will even work. I do not post much and do not really know how to post images or format a post. |

You've got a good eye. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/75355/IMG_2012_jpeg-2818242.JPG Thank you, I appreciate it. I will be heading down to camp for two nights of night hunting for hogs, coyotes, and beaver on Friday. Will probably start a thread on it this weekend. |
 Another one! |

Attached File Attached File Hunting in Texas last year, the 6creed AR10 didn’t like hornady black so the guide let me use his laser shooter and we switched to dogs after the pigs stopped moving on night #2 Attached File Attached File Tried out the 6 creed for a couple months, but don’t like lugging a large frame. Loving the halo xrf after nearly a year now Attached File Have had about 10 guns and getting ready to assemble a bolt action but still come back to ol reliable. 20” .224 Valkyrie. Not sure what I’m going to do when I use up the surplus of ammo I have lol Attached File Favorite one I’ve taken, still kicking shelf for not getting him mounted or tanned atleast Attached File |

Recent successful hunt, boar was at the feeder at about 80 yards. I used my franken-built 6.8 SPCII 16" slick-sided upper with MOE furniture and some camo tape. I was using Silver State Armory 110gr. soft point tactical loads. First time out with new SightMark Wraith Thermal which worked as expected. Sporting the external battery pack. The only problem is that I have a fixed front sight and it was causing shadowing but not enough to make it unusable, just a nuisance at times.

January 15 around 10pm I shot a 29lb male coyote at 45 yards with my 11.5in 5.56 shooting 75grain hornady frontier. Lighting was ambient with enough snow reflection to use my t2 and g45 magnifier without a pvs14. Will imgur ban me for uplaoding pics of dead critters on their app?

I'll have to upload my NV set up but this is my thermal. Rix L6 on an AR, I really found out how much better 77 grain works. The place I work also has a thermal drone so I have some videos from the air too.  Rix Leap 6 |
