Night vision optics are a game changer for airgun hunting. With a day-night scope you can target rats and rabbits at night, and make the most of low light at dawn and dusk, when a lot of quarry is most likely to present an opportunity for a shot. But with so many options on the market, which day-night scope is best suited to your airgun, and at a realistic price? James Head of airgun shop Crackshot is ideally placed to recommend the best option for your budget.
