I’m seriously thinking of purchasing a basic unit for my 300blk for use out to 200yds or less. I’ve narrowed it down to the Hydra series from DNT. Anyone here have experience with them?

No experience with those. I have an AGM Rattler that is great on my coyote rifle.


Hindsight 20/20, I should have gone with a 384 core with an integrated laser range finder instead of a 640 core without. If money were no object, I would have gotten both. Having spent quite a bit of time using it. 384 is plenty of resolution at to 200 yards.

The 640 core image is mesmerizing. But the laser rangefinder would have really been helpful when stretching out beyond 250 years. For your use case with 300blk, may not be necessary or warranted.

I have a thermal and a ‘night vision’ scope. I like the thermal better, works well. I bought them off a friend that does a lot of night coyote hunting, easily see a coyote at 300+ yards. He was upgrading to the latest.

I don’t use them much, but there they are.

I have a few hours behind an AGM Rattler V3 (384) — probably not enough to say anything intelligent about it, but I can say that I like it.

A week ago, it gave me a great view of the hog I missed, as it trotted out of sight.
