so i posted over in the hunting section about rigging up my 17 for fox hunting, now that i have the scope mounted, what would be a good quality kill light? the scope has a 44ml front lense, so the light would have to shine over that, any suuggestions?

i replied over on your other post Dave. I'd say get a kill light xlr 250 from Jeremiah Weber of boondock outdoors. I have my red 250 mounted on a tasco 6-24X42MM scope right now and it provides plenty of light to shoot out to 150 yards. That should be more than enough light for your 17. Talk to jeremiah his email is boondockooutdoors@verizon.net. He is a very friendly guy and will answer all your questions.
 
I jumped on the LED band wagon. I think my friends Nite Lite and the Light Force will still remain king of the hill when it comes to getting them into kill range and actually having enough time to make the kill with the light doing it's job.
It is much easier to burn predators with a LED light in my opinion. And being pretty much the LEDs first full year I'm hearing this from a few hunters the past few weeks since hunters are getting out and using them. There is a post on here about LEDs it takes forever to read but has some good advice and links to some good lights.
 
Dave,

There is one particular light that we all use here in Arizona It's cheap, available to everyone, and is the most powerful light available anywhere. It's called the sun.

Night hunting is not authorized here.

Lol Dave i wish our critters in PA came out in the sunlight. Foxes around here don't stick their neck out til nearly dark unless its super cold and snowy. Your blessed to live in an area where coyotes are more prominent than around here. What i would give to have a bunch of yotes here at home
 
davejohnson3,
There is only one "Kill-Light" that is a branded name of hunting lights produced by Elusive Wildlife Technologies.
You will not find a better more convient night hunting system.
I prefer RED light for hunting predators. Please feel free to check out "THE Kill-Lights" on my website www.boondock-outdoors.com
I have never "burnt" an animal with these lights. If you check youtube there is a video of a redfox trotting right in to less than 10 feet from the Kettle Creek Calls guys while hunting. I personally have had grayfox within 10 yards with the light in their eyes the whole time coming in from over 100 yards out. I dont know how close some people want them to come in.. LOL

Here is a link to the video I mentioned above.

If you have any other questions please feel free to email me at boondockoutdoors@verizon.net

I have used red,green,and white leds and im not sure i understand the "burning" them? I have shined my lights directly on predators and if given the right setup and people the animal will come in if its already commited. Some fox will scurry around wanting to come but are unsure. Imo if you just keep the light edge on those type and sit still they will most likely come in and investigate the sound sorce.
 
ok thanks for the help guys, that link is cool! i was looking at the green one hard because it seems like visability would be better, but i dont want to scare them off, do you guys use a seperate light for scanning and then the kill light for the shot? or can you use the kill light for all of it if you are hunting alone? red or green? man the choice is a tuff one
 
OAK, i am going to be doing most of my hunting in PA as well, we would go scouting this summer and lip squeak in grays from the road, with the light on them and truck running, man they are some bold critters
 
Dave,

I think there are many folks who use the smaller kill light light (The 100) to scan and the 250 to shoot with. As far as red and green, you might find that the red will not interfere with YOUR night vision. Other colors, IMHO, might make you squint or not see clearly for a bit after turning them off, but red seems to not bother me or other guys I've spoken to...I prefer the red lights........

It seems like the term kill light is generic. I didn't see any registered trademark for Kill-Light on the EWT website.
