    Nice setup, I can see how it’d be easy to go down the rabbit hole. I also have a bit of an addictive nature when it comes to things I enjoy. I’m just gonna start buying stuff kind of piece meal so it’s not a huge expense at once. Thanks for the input!

    That's pretty much how I started. Didn't think I'd get into it as much as I did though. It started with 223 Remington. Hind sight I'd have bought a better press but have loaded many many rounds on that Lee single stage.

    I hate reloading. It’s tedious and time consuming. I only got kind of into it when I was younger because of the lie that you save money. Then when I started shooting open class bench competitively it was a necessity to be competitive. And I continued through PRS and other things I do where sub moa is the standard.

    No experience but it looks like maybe they're an extension of Optics Planet?
    Kind of a mixed bag with them.

    Their ambi charging handles are $35 on OP. Comparing to the price of Radians I thought maybe worth a try

    So does the night vision flip out of the way for daytime use. I’ve never used one of them

    I've got an ATN 4k pro 3-14 and the only thing outside of the typical scope body is the IR illuminator. Typically you can take those off pretty easily if you don't need it on. Video clarity on mine during the day and even low light situations w/o the illuminator is great.

    No need to flip it out of the way. In daylight it functions like any other scope except that it projects in black and white only. 3 magnification levels 4,8 and 14x.

    That seems pretty good then. I haven’t used night vision since 1988 and that was the ones that strapped around our heads. I bet that setup would be hell on varmint control in the dark

    A green or red flashlight is great for varmint control. Most varmints can't see in that light spectrum, but it reflects their eyes wonderfully.

    Your doesn't have the ability to change between day and night modes? My ATN is in full color for day mode and you toggle on the night mode. Can also change that between white/black and green.

    No day and night mode on the Pulsar. Just turn it on and go.
