Depends where in the world you are - we are based in New Zealand

in the video, the target is ~800 meters but can you zoom in to see the target bigger?

It’s a 4x optic - so best to base it on that

It has digital zoom so the objects will get bigger but blockier - To shoot that far you need a NV scope such as TD (thermal and NV) ot night stalker

@@owlopticsandoutdoors got it thank you sir

I dunno compared to my system 89 it’s a bargain - be interesting to see slugs run over it - awaiting a rifled barrel to arrive for my m2 at the moment ( for 6 months)

@@owlopticsandoutdoors It will be interesting to see if sabots or wads confuse it.

Find out tomorrow :)

It works fine in slugs - no misreads - the slug should be a nice target for it vs the lighter wad - for sabots have to wait until my barrel arrives in March

@@owlopticsandoutdoors That's promising. Being able to distinguish the slug from the gas seal and wads and other junk that might be flying along with it.

Yep will do tomorrow - I don’t have a Mac though

Just uploaded - for a Mac they have separate instructions on their site - I don’t have a Mac though - How to Update your Labradar LX Firmware th-cam.com/video/aRCiDDSlXzg/w-d-xo.html

The figures it provides are valid for quite some distance - I wouldn’t risk shooting one :)

Hi Can’t really tell without all the data on the rifle, calibre and ballistics - you should chrono it ideally with a Labradar LX and get bc and then test fire at longer distances

You can’t move the laser it’s self and it will depend on the zero where it actually sits on the screen - I have a video on moving the box LRF Adjust th-cam.com/video/P9Iq8bgtP54/w-d-xo.html

They aren’t designed to run without a IR on at night - the pixels are smaller too in this model - harder to make them sensitive so they will probably loose some light - we use IR when needed so don’t see anything between them in use There is a UK version and that’s around the IR light sometimes called Gen 2 (was in ds35 times)

It’s a 16mm 2.9x optical

Yes but this is almost a past model now - replaced with pantera - my favs are the TD series and night stalker - currently also using the Landsat mini on a HMR which will be in videos soon

I actually have a video on the MT-3/5 Mounts and did a test - PARD MT5 and MT3 Mounts - Review and Test th-cam.com/video/fUGV_42a-L8/w-d-xo.html

@@owlopticsandoutdoors Awesome, thanks! Looks respectable for hunting as you say 👍

Working on zeroing video at moment

Ds35 its overall a better scope - newer design - 008 s is out of date now as is ds35, current is night stalker

At some stage will do - we prefer dedicated scopes here as we don’t have rifles with forward rails generally and a dedicated with a QD rings is better than a front clip on

Yes short press Comes back in how it was before LRF can’t be seen - except my sensor itself as a white flash and there are 850 or 940 models

It all depends on the conditions and the shooter, rifle, bullets, target size - I shoot red dots to 200y - if you can see and place the bullet accurately is the key - if you want to shoot further you need ballistics - so that’s as a dedicated scope, which case get the night stalker if you are intending on that and base it on the magnification range suitable

Yes What ever screen is on the main screen is the one you are zeroing

Be in the night mode (black and white) and then the small left hand button at back - in front of LRF button

@@owlopticsandoutdoors THANK YOU.

Yeah - I wish they weren’t there, they are extremely high, just use 30mm rings that suit your rifle and shooting style

Not really sure anymore - wasn’t far

Hi Try pard.com

Just change 1 digit on x or y then it freezes until you are done

Yes it will and way more than that plus you have the 100 eye relief - see our videos with it on a 338 lapua - some 500 rounds on that

@owlopticsandoutdoors thanks so much

The user view is round like a glass scope - so this gives the view that the user would see - the sensor is different shape

Yes we use the internal ballistics of the scope for drop

@ muito obrigado !

Yeah they are neat with the 2 optical mag levels - don’t need a recoil mount - the ds and night stalker which are NV units live on our 338 LM improved for over 500 rounds and no issues - they are rated higher

No not a step down - the round eye piece is far more natural and with 100mm of eye relief makes it far nicer to use - 480 cores already in the pantera and ocelot scopes plus leopard handhelds - for fusion see the TD series been out for over a year

@@owlopticsandoutdoors I may be mistaken remembering the other models used round eye pieces when Pard compared their products to other similar scopes. I seen the TD and new Landsat but it looked like the only way to use it in a "fusion" sort of way is by using a Picture In Picture or PIP they call it, a window that displays a magnified image that can use the night vision module, daytime or thermal module in conjunction with main display.

Yeah its across most of their range now, started with DS35, yeah you use it a PIP - I’ve used ‘fused’ scopes before and they don’t work as well as you would think, also a parallax in them as the lenses aren’t at the same point - the PARD’s can be used with PIP either way or just as a main screen and flip between them - its not magnified unless you zoom it first - use the benefits of thermal to locate and night vision (or day) to ID

Just cut a video out on the eye relief PARD Scopes Eye Relief is 100mm and look how natural it is th-cam.com/video/WXRmT2YuE0M/w-d-xo.html

Will be doing some soon, generally the most common scopes are the 50 and 70 - in our country at least. The biggest step up with the 4K is the level of zoom you can use

@@owlopticsandoutdoors I think you’re right the increased level of zoom that can be used makes the the 70 make more sense. I’m looking forward to your footage. Here in the uk the night stalker isn’t getting great reviews which I’m puzzled by.

@Fieldsports_England I don’t get that - it’s a brilliant scope - but too often these ‘reviewers’ or influinzers (not a spelling mistake) are lead by something such as money, brand support or don’t have a clue about actual night hunting or try to make it specific to them which isn’t normal - I too could make any other brand look rubbish with a little bit of thought - have thought about doing a fake review on 2 products that are actually the same to prove that - we take real films in real field conditions - you tube isn’t really for us it’s mostly overseas viewers actually but we enjoy doing it so continue to do it - in November we are out for a few days deer hunting and will take a lot of footage then

Parallax is a focus sometimes called side or front focus - it brings the target and reticle into the same image - even without the pard it will do that

Just checked and sound is working

Just press the rangefinder button to back out

It’s on our website for New Zealand based - but a lot of viewers are from outside new New Zealand so I kept it generic plus if it changes it doesn’t make the video wrong either

My test scope is a meopta optika 6 works well and dials under the caps - but really if buying a glass scope as well consider a night stalker - day night, ballistics, 100mm eye relief

No - not at least as a factory option

Correct :) - zero point - Front Clip ons have some place in the world, but QD Mounts are so good these days just swap the entire scope - or just run a Night Stalker day or night

Owloptics.nz The ts31 has been replaced by the pantera though - videos coming on that soon

Either really - just different specs - both have ballistics - with QD mounts both do work as a handhelds as well, FT is smaller - but both the FT and SA32 are older models now - pantera, ocelot, TD are the scopes and predator replaced FT (not seen a predator yet)

Oh - I’ll let PARD know, we are New Zealand only

Yes using digital zoom will drop it some - the sensor has more pixels than screen so some is lossless Thermal resolution and blobular - my new word :) Honestly just go a night stalker and chuck the glass scope away - day and night, dusk and dawn - ballistics … I don’t own any glass scopes anymore and neither do mates

Go to the reticle adjustment menu - where you zero and change it there. On the main screen for shooting you can see what profile are on as well

@@owlopticsandoutdoors Thanks, I worked it out eventually. I needed to scroll down to the Save parameter and long press on that to change the profile. Thanks for your response
