Any preference between the Flir and the IR Hunter?
I like the IR Hunter design and menu knob ease of use.  Both IR Hunter units are less than a month old and ridden with software issues, glitches and bugs.  Several times in last nights hunt the IR Hunter units took 10-30 seconds to fully power up in 32 degree temps,  many shooting opportunities were lost because of this. If the FLIR had a more user friendly and more importantly QUICK menu use adjustments it would be the perfect combo. Image wise and detection wise I prefer the FLIR.  But it's not apples to apples the FLIR is a 640 core the IRH are 320 cores.  Personally I would not purchase IR Defense products until they get the software issues fixed.  I want them to have a good product because I want the Patrol monocular just released but from what I have seen of the products they have issues. To be fair these are the first gen units but the company has been around a year maybe so I'm sure there is going to be issues.  Other than the lack of quick menu changes the FLIR is a superior unit. Also I had an issue with the LCD in my 10 month old FLIR unit and it was replaced with A 100% NEW UNIT in one day and next day shipped back to me (shipped Mon was hunting with the new unit Friday night) IR Hunter has no customer service claims that I can find to compare this to but as a startup I cannot imagine they can simply replace a $6,000 unit with a minor issue as SOP.  With FLIR you are covered.

Thanks
I rented the new 640  IR Hunter last month for a long weekend and it had software issues that would not allow the startup menu to clear. I also had a flir 640 monocular spotting scope that was great but obviously didn't have all the bells and whistles. It seems like one more evolution from FLIR on their tactical scope and they will have the perfect product. Thanks for the response.

Well, I've finally bloodied the tOBR.  Wasn't some long range miracle, but since it was at about 25 yds I did hold 2 MILS for mechanical offset or whatever the buzz phrase is this month.  Wish he woulda been with some friends.  Had nine more nails in the mag.

This past weekend here in Texas, the Hunt FE Hill Ranch hosted 6 wounded Veterans from our great friends at the Wishes for Warriors family.  All in all 42 does (31 shown here) were taken by the 6 vets, two were amputees that had never hunted before.  Most of the deer were taken with Larue 762 OBRs and tOBRs supplied to the vets from my personal stash.  14.5", 16" and 2 18" heavies were used with great success out to just over 500 yards. The front row are the vets with the Wishes family, the back row is the ranch owner, president of Wishes for Warriors and myself.  The meat was taken by another charity in Dallas that process and donates it to needy military families, an all around great event.

Welp, another year of p-dog shooting is rapidly winding down.  Put another 1,000+ rounds down 5.56 LaRue Stealth pipe and an additional 1,000+ rds through a Savage A17.

In the .223/5.56, I'm finding the Fiocchi 40gr polymer tip to be particularly deadly; even more so than the 50gr v-max.  
Holy shit is it flat shooting!  And the terminal effects are devastating.  3,650 fps compared to 3,300 fps for the 50gr pills.  
I've had to adjust my holdovers at longer ranges, but it brings the hurt.

Popped this pair at around 235 yds.
