Broke in the sniper xr

[bbbrownbommer]

I spent two days at my brother-in-law farm doing some pesting with my new 25 cal xr sniper and Notoes with night vision atached. Shots on starlings and sparrows were from 50 to 125 yards and one groundhog at 75 yards with the sniper. Shot at least 80 25 grain jsbs in two days. I am guessing a 75% hit ratio. Hunted one night with the notoes . To many rats and mice to count between hog pens and chicken house. Can't wait to go back...

@bbbrownbommer Thats a nice looking stock on that Sniper. Pretty reliable gun. Where’d you shoot the groudhog? How’d it react once hit from 75 yards with a .25?

A Notos with N.V. could be a new model called Nitos

Love the XR Sniper’s , excellent gun

Between eye and the ear. Straight down tail straight up and never moved out of its tracks.

I have had lots of fun with the notos. Money well spent...

@bbbrownbommer Sounds like a helluva shot. You gather the carcasses afterwards? Take any photos? Got any NV footage?

Never even took my cell phone or tablet. Not a tech person. Took me years to get were I am at . Never touched the carcasses. Most are gone the next day...

@bbbrownbommer Well the Sniper photo is nice. What type of NV setup are you using? How far out can you see clearly with it? What’s the image quality like?

It's a sightmark photon 6x. It has on-board ir light , maybe 100 yards with it. The attached ir flashlight is a custom light that I can see at least 300 yards with this unit.

I'm guessing that you have a lot more money in the NV than the notos..?

Yes. I can't remember what I paid for it but it is a affordable unit.

Did some pesting myself today with .25 xr magnum. This was 41 yards using Rangemaster Emperor 33.95 pellets.

What a way to break your XR in… 41 yards, that poor chuck didn’t stand a chance… good shooting.
