Taipan Just got a KILLER set up done for Night pesting or even Daytime sub 75y schwhackin !!!

[Motorhead]

Start out with my near 10 yr old time tested TAIPAN MUTANT .22 cal standard running @ 32 fpe and good for 5 mags on a 250 bar fill ( 60 shots ) ( 4 mag carrier between scope towers, 1 mag loaded =5 )

First goes down a fully adjustable Pic rail offering windage and elevation adjusting w/o resorting to the optics internal fiddly POI program. ( Keep electronics at 0/0 and centered in view ) speedily dial POI at will externally works far better !!!

Next down a PARD NV-008P LRF day / night electronic scope. It has a the laser range finder / blue tooth connected to my cell phone with ranging solution POA/POI when activated. Also has a short range RED laser you can turn on/off easily.

Out front nestled under the FOV of the Pard sits a tactical "Beam Shot" 5mw Green laser with a momentary button pad switch on left front of fore stock. * It is fully beam aim adjustable to where ever I may choose for this secondary if wanted/required POI reference.

The image quality on this PARD is a whole lot better IMO than the ATN X-sights ( have 2 ) and is about 1/4 or less the size !!! Has built in beam adjustable IR illumination and a laser range finder too !! While an older model @ 3 yrs old, I scored it as Brand new & unused dirt cheap ... Nice !!!

My local Rat problem is going to be getting a reckoning here real soon !!!

Damm Motorhead, you hit it out the park on this one. Sweet.

 

[Motorhead]

Was unhappy with objective lens being so exposed ( finger printed it numerous times ) going after objective focus ... so, made up a simple sun hood keeping lens out of finger print touches way with IR reflection being minimal.

Gorgeous rifle

That's quite a piece of equipment there Scott. I'm curious, do you know its weight?

 

[Jay308]

Very nice, that PARD is so small. Out of curiosity, how did you clean the lens?

32FPE for rats?
Have you experimented with lower powered tunes?

Been running one of my .22 shorties at 24FPE for a few years now and I love it 14.35 JSB@870fps.
Plenty of power for tree rats + much quieter + lots more shots/fill (70) + super gentle shot cycle.

Can you elaborate on that adjustable scope rail?

 

[manabeknives]

That's an impressive rig @Motorhead !!
What is on the grip....tennis racket gip tape?

32FPE for rats?
Have you experimented with lower powered tunes? Living rural and rats are on property, in sheds etc ... most get shot out in the open or along side buildings. Need Low power can just swap the set-up onto the .177 Veteran

Can you elaborate on that adjustable scope rail? Rail is known as a ZB-Lite "zeoing block"

What is on the grip....tennis racket grip tape? Cork bicycle bar tape

And being the legal issue in CA of such a rig ... it will be staying on private property and not used in or on public lands

 

[Motorhead]

Ok, after Schwhackin 2 rats with the .22 Mutant last night .. yea a bit much, so switched gear over to the .20 fpe .177cal VETERAN
it is a lot quieter too and sports a Niel Clague LDC ... Very quiet actually.

Could you address the previous question about this piece of equipment. I'm interested, also.

Nice kits Scott!
I have that same Pard with the range finder. I like it a lot. It’s great that you got a good deal on it, I bought mine when they first came out, it was $1000. It makes regular scopes seem like old tech.
