I’m just after pros and cons and what brands you are using and recommendations

Take a good look at the Pard 007sp. I have both the earlier S model and now the SP with the range finder. They have proven to be reliable and a good performer. I mainly shoot in more open country and at ranges between 50m and 300m. The IR light on them is fantastic, it is a genuine laser illuminator and not just an LED. The S and the SP have a much shorter body than the earlier models which means they can still be used without having to put on a butt plate extender. I think the rear add on is a better option that the front mount versions because they do not affect the point of aim like the front mount, You can also crank up the magnification on the scope and still see all the menu etc. I have now done quite a lot of hunting with the Pard, I use it in conjuction with a thermal spotter. after trying several different combos I have settled in this as the best, at least for me. happy to talk to you in more detail if you want.
