That trick with the sling on the tripod is really neat. I would never have thought of that myself. I always learn something new every time I watch a Vortex Nation podcast!
My buddies and I all went with Sightmark Wraiths you can get them for $497 on Amazon right now. They work surprisingly well and many reviews of them on TH-cam I'd suggest it to anyone looking to get into night hunting on a budget. The IR illuminator it comes with works great within 150-200 yards but we all got Coyote Cannon illuminator's from Sniper Hog lights for around $250 and that extends the range several hundred yards!
Great podcast! Was wondering why he doesn’t use Hornady Superformance 58 grain V-Max right out of the box? Super accurate, deadly, flat shooting and economical!
I desperately need to see a video just about that 243 AR-10! I'm wanting to build one or two, myself. One longer, one shorter. I'm really wanting to build a 17" 1:8 barrel with a rifle gas system with 55 or 70gr solid coppers
Would be nice to know what thermals are worth buying for hunting, there are so many options. I would like to find opinions on clip on like the skeet-ir or the 6z
North Dakotas law used to be you can only hunt at night from like December to January, and anything that used batteries was essential. No illuminated reticle even.
I don't even own night vision it's extremely expensive and would rather spend that money on a good thermal. All I use is a thermal on my rifle and a dim green light to move around while trying to set up on hogs don't really do a lot of coyote hunting but don't pass them up when I see them either.
Does anyone use that old trick where after spotting an animal via thermal you grab and hold your barrel tip for couple of minutes so that it would warm up and you could align it to the target direction and thus lose less time finding the target after switching to flashlight attached to rifle?
I know this is late and it maybe fixed by now, but a solution to the wacky light rule is just to close Coyote night hunting during deer gun season. No confusion for the warden no confusion for the hunter.
Good stuff, but totally disagree with the thermal before night vision if a guy can only have one. You can buy a quality pulsar handheld scanner AND a good night vision scope with upgraded IR light for the same or less amount of money than a thermal scope that’s worth having. In my opinion, this is a much better setup and guarantee any die hard Hunter would agree. But don’t get me wrong, if you can afford a thermal scanner and a scope like the Bering super hogster as a minimum, it’s better yet. But that’s $4500+, the scanner and high end night vision, like a pulsar digisight n 450 LRF can be had new for $3500 And this is INFINITELY better than ANY “budget” thermal.
Been calling coyotes for a very long time...decades.....day and night.....to say there is 10x more activity at night as opposed to day calling is an embellishment.
I hate to say it but there's house cats and feral cats which we need to do something about cause they're killing off the small bird and small game populations
Foxpro makes great calls but their lights aren't great. Wicked lights and sniper hog lights are 10x better. For same price point. I live 30 minutes from foxpro been night hunting for years. People i hunt with I only know 2 people that run foxpro gun light and my wicked is way brighter. Imho. As a hunter it's your responsibility to due diligence and research before deciding
I would love to Coyote hunt at night. But not at the risk getting into conversation with law enforcement. Because you will NEVER win that conversation. This is a womp womp in my book. I not going to put myself in a situation where the DNR OFFICER INTERPERTION is to write me a ticket. And lose my license.
Wild meat is thought to be healthier being hormone and antibiotic free. Other animals get out of balance like pigs coyotes and cats and pests and deer, etc. so harvesting is good for the ecology. Many introduced animals will explode in population if not killed by hunters.

When is Vortex diving into the thermal game?
Watch, the late night vision show.
They do sell night vision & thermal om their website, and do a good job explaining the thermal options.
@@paraglidingnut26 I'm talking vortex making thermal optics.

I got one but you gotta get an external USB power adapter the batteries aren’t practical. It’s pretty damn bulky as well but has some good features
3rd video in this series needs to be baiting,decoys, and a coyotes ability for scent detection.

“That’s like having two hands” 😅
Hahaha 😝 love you guys and your show is a gem!
Night vision is a good way to get in but even a cheap thermal changes the game.
Very informative video, thanks so much.

Great content and presentation; you guys should be way bigger!
I love it... great keys points and coyote hunting is very addicting!! I run a thermal scope and lights
What kind of gun was the ar 243??
@@anthonygrindle1593 just a bunch of parts laying around. Dpms receivers, x caliber barrel, and sgt of arms handguard with the Arca rail built in.

Late Night Vision Show with Hans and Jason out of North east Texas
Great information!
Can you possibly do a video on what to do after the shot? Skinning, tanning, hide care kind of stuff and what to do with the pelt.
Something like that is already in the works! It’ll be part of an upcoming podventure so stay tuned!!

Can you talk about the .204 ruger?
No
Thermal’s better for observing night vision’s better for actually walking around and doing things at night

Thermal, every time!!!
Downdraft ! Sometimes !
The best rifle for hunting coyotes is a Piper Cub and a 12 guage.
Can you do .17hmr?
What tripod did he have in the studio? If you can name drop. Thanks

I'm gonna need a 2nd job for that gear
Oo

58:15… since you are in Wisconsin, FMJ are not legal to Hunt with anyway.

Are coyotes as delicious as poodles?

What is the obsession with killing animals?
Wild meat is thought to be healthier being hormone and antibiotic free. Other animals get out of balance like pigs coyotes and cats and pests and deer, etc. so harvesting is good for the ecology. Many introduced animals will explode in population if not killed by hunters.
@@rodneyhoskins8187 that or a future serial killer. Either way too obsessed with murder.
IT'S ONLY ILLEGAL IF YOU GET CAUGHT!
