Looking for some feedback. What have all you found when it comes to green lights for hog/predator. Is there a specific brand that seems to work better? All feedback is welcome.
Thanks in advance.

I use the Orion H25-G from amazon. It's a great light, clearly goes out to around 200 yards which is all I need. Cost is around $100.

I have an XLR250, Wicked, and one I bought directly from China.

If they all have fresh batteries, I would give a slight edge to the Wicked. It is the one I grab when my grandsons don't beat me to it.

All 3 will easily light up an animal at 100 yards well enough to place your shot. I haven't tried further distances for shooting but I do light up a fence row 300 yards from my trailer and would be able to identify any animal that happened to be there.

I like the Wicked gun mounts better than the others. They are more costly, but easier to use.

That is just my experience. I'll be watching others comments because I may be on the market for another.

I use a stalk tech product, it has worked great for me and my son for both hog hunting and bowfishing. The website is www.STALKTECH.COM and they are located on the NW side of San Antonio. The owners name is Fred Danzoy 210-843-8317

This is where I got the one I use $36. Looks like the price went up to $57. It's a green laser designator.

XLR-250 works good for me. You will experience some attenuation when it is really humid or the dust/pollen is in the air, but still good enough to easily shoot at 100 yards.

XLR-250. With a 30MM scope I get 150-200 yds out of it.

I bought 5 of them straight from china two years ago. All 5 are still in use today. They are not as rugged as the XLR 100/250 or other ones sold in the big box stores, but will do the trick. If you are hard on gear, go with the more expensive ones. The Chinese ones cost about $25 each

Power of the light is good also.
