Hold up... wait a minute! How did you get the Pulsar to zoom in to 4x ? I thought they maxed out at 2x digital zoom? Cool video once again

Maybe the S model only goes to 2X? Dunno I got a pre-production model so maybe the retail versions are 4x, I'll ask. Triple shooters on 1 pig is a rare vid treat, didn't sound like all were shooting 5.56 either....

Great video. It looked liked the pig had all four hoofs off the ground at one point.

Amazing!

Great video.
A side question if you don't mind. Will you be able to spot snakes while walking and stalking? Wearing a night vision goggle?
