Elcan DigitalHunter Rifle Scope

[CSTactical1]

@Antix619 HD would rock. I would really like that.

[Antix619]

Let me know when it can take HD quality video at a high frame rate. Would shell out a couple grand for that. Until then, mounting a HD camera to the back of the scope is a better option. You are on the right track though.

[CSTactical1]

@whitebeebo We stopped selling them about a 1 1/2 years ago. We are still getting request for them. They are not recommend for a 338. I have not used one of the Day/Night units in the filed. I played with one in the shop and it was cool.

[whitebeebo]

i own a savage 110 BA .338 lapua mag. How well will this scope cope with the shock from the recoil from large calibers. I see this site is still going strong so the market must be pretty remarkable for these products. Anyone know a quote for the DayNight version with the IR lights and eye piece?

[barrysteenmans]

Where can I find the software to make different uploads??

thank you

[roynelson96]

The IDF person out of predators uses it . If it can kill predator a jar of maranara wont be much trouble.

[CSTactical1]

@roynelson96 LOL...

[carmas54]

what's the effective range of this scope?

[tapper45]

@carmas54

scopes don't have "ranges", they have magnification levels.

it is 2.5x - 16x.

[carmas54]

@tapper45 >> you're correct...it has magnification, but this scope has a built in range finder, and I want to know it's effective range. All these types of scopes like the one Nikon has, have ranges, 500 -600 yds. So if you don't know, that's OK

[tapper45]

@carmas54

oh, i see what you're saying.

it's nice to see that some people on youtube actually know what they're talking about.

i have uso, s&b, swarovskis, nikons etc but none of them have a video out or usb.

i think i probably have better (and stronger) glass but this scope's day has come.

if the other manufactures don't start making this kind of scope they'll be losing out on this part of the market.i hope somebody i know gets one of these soon so i can try it out.

[carmas54]

@tapper45 ... this is a new class of scope. There is a lot of math (science) involved in marking distance shots and electronics is making it easier for the average person to just input pint and shoot. The are several companies that make these now...google Laser/lazer scopes and you'll find them. One of many drawbacks is weight and certainly the reason for my question how far can the scope lock in on the target and make the BDC? If it's 600 yards, that 's noit in my mind good enough.my2cents

[tapper45]

@carmas54

yeah, i agree.

600 yard shots are where some of my rifles just begin to shine.

i learned mildot in school more than 20 years ago and have been using it since then but you rely on range estimation and target height.

the laser designator i use is accurate past 2k but it is bulky and i don't know anyone that could afford one.

if it won't range past 600 yards it would handicap anything 308 and larger.

but for short to "med" range it would be a fun gadget.

[whitebeebo]

@carmas54 I guess I should have read your post before jumping in the forum. The technology is very interesting. I hope there are plans for something just as rugged and intended for longer range shooting.

The low light feature seems nice though, especially for the price. It's a great bargin, considering the really nice low light and night vision rifle scopes can easly go up a few thousand dollars. 

[y3k23k]

man the picture quality looks really poor seems like it would be hard to see any thing that isnt a 2 litter of sunkist.

[CSTactical1]

@y3k23k It is not the best but it works and you can see well enough for a lot of hunting environments. It is a fun toy.

[pteppig]

great invention, but i have a few questions:

- does it have a fixed "starting" magnification (software magn gets blurry) ?

- why do i have to remove the batteries (no off switch ?)?

- how many batteries ? can i recharge them inside ?

- is it rain/fog and sandproof ?

- can i use it with 338 magnum ?

[CSTactical1]

@pteppig Whatever you left the magnification at is were it will start at. The image looks a little blurrier at 16x than at lower power but not by much. It has an on and off switch but it is best to take the batteries out when not storing it so they do not drain. It uses 4 batteries. I'm not sure about the recharging them inside the scope I did not see that on the manual. Yes it is rain / fog and somewhat sand proof. It will take a 338 but they recommend lower calibers.

[davidreefer]

@CSTactical1 what about .50 bmg or .416?

[CSTactical1]

@davidreefer It is recommend not to you it on a MAG rifle and UP. So no.

[poopchunk3]

give this to our troops to use ao we can see wats going on

[CSTactical1]

@poopchunk3 LOL.... That would be cool. I know they have an output on some of their NV and Thermal units.

[strud34]

is it as good as a n550 at night ?

[CSTactical1]

This unit is not the Day / Nighttime unit.  I have not compared the Nighttime unit to the N550.

[MADNEXXION]

want that scope for GRAW

[TOPROLLER101]

Will the Scope work on my benjamin air gun . Model# B5M22PX .22CAL if so i would love to get one ..

[CSTactical1]

@TOPROLLER101 As long as your Air gun has a picatinny rail, it will mount on it.

[lanberr]

does it have a built in range finder

[CSTactical1]

@lanberr It does not have a built in range finder. We have more of these in-stock and on sale right now...

[johnnyr55556]

Would love to get the day/night model of this scope.

[CSTactical1]

@johnnyr55556 I hear you but for the price we have the DH1 for it is hard to pass up.

[CSTactical1]

Thanks for the orders!

[CSTactical1]

Click on the 1st link in the description to see photos of the DigitalHunter being used in the new "Predators" movie...

Thats a even better reticle than the one I just spent an hour drawing!

[CSTactical1]

@redheadhistorian That is one of the custom reticles already designed by another DigitalHunter user from Elcan's site. It can be pretty time-consuming using the software to custom design ur own reticle, but Elcan's site is filled with many custom reticles from users that you can download right away.

We recommend to our DH users to save time & just look for one of the custom designs already published to Elcan's site. No point in re-inventing the wheel. We still have these in-stock on special...

[AirsoftAdventures]

I LOOK FOR ELCAN DIGITALHUNTER DAY NIGHT DIGITAL RIFLESCOPE! FOR GOOD PRICE>?

[CSTactical1]

@AirsoftAdventures At this time we do not have the Day Night.

[AirsoftAdventures]

this scolpe is HD? 

[CSTactical1]

@AirsoftAdventures Not HD.

[IAMLEGEND30]

no sound? only video!

[CSTactical1]

@IAMLEGEND30 No it does not record the sound.

[whitebeebo]

@CSTactical1 lol

[whitebeebo]

@CSTactical1 I have an M1A that I an upgrading via Troy Industries (which does wonders). I have made the decision to purchase Day/Night scope especially for this rifle. The battery life concerns me though. Which aftermarket external battery pack would you recommend? How long would the recommended battery pack last under constant useage?

[tuttoz]

awsome , how much are they being sold for ?

[CSTactical1]

@tuttoz Typically they go for $1179 but we are offering them on special right night for only $800 on our site...

[tuttoz]

@CSTactical1 ... thanks ,, thats actually not bad ... i might buy one for my dad and one for myself ... looks like a great product , ill give it a try

[CSTactical1]

@tuttoz Glad to hear you're interested, let us know if you have any other questions...Thanks - Mike @ CST

[soulcapacitor]

Mount that scope and rifle on a motorized traversing tripod and you get yourself a nice little toy you can take to the range while you play with your joystick
