I'm sure there's plenty of people researching NVG that are considering a Nocturn Manticore-R. Tonight was my first night out with my set, so I figured I'd give an initial impression. I'll also talk a little about Apollo Gear which is where I purchased them.

The Manticore-R is their rugged (hence the R) that is an aluminum housing. First impressions it it feels like it's built like a tank. These will be seeing some fairly hard use which is why I chose this housing over others. First impression is that it accomplishes the goal.

The articulation is stiff yet smooth. I believe you can adjust the tension via screws, but the way it is set currently is prefect for me. Not sure if that's how it's set from factory if the builder set it. Regardless, it means that one way or another, you can get the tension you like. The tubes have individual shut off when rolled up and that seems to work as intended. There is no obstruction from the battery port, so they will fully articulate just shy of vertical.

The controls are push buttons and very stiff. Which is a good thing as you basically can't accidentally press a button. It has +/- manual gain buttons, an onboard IR, and power button. I do feel a knob is easier/faster to fine tune the gain....but not enough that I regret the push buttons. The battery cab does somewhat get in the way so you have to position your hand/fingers in specific positions to press the buttons. Not a huge deal.....just being picky mentioning it.

The rest of the unit is the generic Carson Pvs14 glass. I decided to go this way vs something like a 31a or 31d or anything fancy like RPO or boomslang.....just for the ease of maintenance in the event of damage.

That's about all I can say for the housing and such as there's really not much too them and that's part of the reason I chose the Manticore. It's a minimalist rugged housing that has manual gain. No large housing or anything I don't need.....except on board illuminator. I don't need that as I use other illuminators for different tasks and will likely never use the onboard.



As far as Apollo Gear, Ryan (owner) was extremely helpful. We talk about my needs for housing and tubes. He agreed that something like the Manticore was likely a better choice than a 31a, and while the 31d was also a good choice for my neon eds.....I'd be able to get better tubes for the same price as a 31d.

He tends to use 24um or 24ua L3 tubes. We mutually agreed that it made sense to look for around a 35snr (since that's not a hard number to get on L3 tubes), and then prioritize the lowest EBR in the tubes he had on hand.....mainly because I work in a very hot environment and while EBR is overvalued a lot, it made sense to make that a secondary priority just to be safe.

The packaging from Apollo was far and away better than it needed to be. The nvg came with a case, a single 123 batter, stickers, wipes, and the spec sheets. A very nice and need package.

I'll post the spec sheets below. And while I'll keep the actual price private (since pricing can fluctuate on many things that are things that can and can't be controlled), it's in the +/- $10,000 range. Just so anyone reading has a ballpark price to see if a build like this is in your budget.


The below pics were taking with an iPhone. Conditions are completely overcast with no moon or stars visible. Very little ambient lighting in the immediate area as its in a semi remote heavy brush area. And just started with a new moon even though it's not visible currently.

Pic 1: just taken with iPhone
Pic 2: same area through a single tube with gain set to around medium to low
Pic 3: same area with gain at max

When can we expect prices to go down and quality to go up ?

I hear even the best ammo manufacturer (Hornady) , hasn’t been able to source the correct powder and quality has suffered as a result

Beginning to do some research on building a DIY deer cooler. Found a device called Coolbot (Coolbot webpage) that turns a window AC unit into refrigeration unit for the walk in. Looking at 2 options, build a 6'x'6'x7' box(and insulate it) and put it in the corner of my shop or find a small 6x8 shed and insulate it and place in on a concrete pad behind my shop. It would likely only run a few weeks a year and have one or two deer in it at a time. Deer processors are going by the way side and only open certain hours and days now days. I have processed deer many times as I have a friend of the family who has a walk in cooler but our schedules don't line up always and I hate to be only guy invading his shop to process a deer. All this got me searching for deer cooler options that didn't cost 5 grand. Figured fellow 'Hide members were crafty and maybe some of you have built a DIY cooler, if so share your experience. Not sure which direction I will go but I like doing my own processing and think maybe I would get back out hunting more earlier in the year if I didn't have to rely on others or processors for my game.


Thoughts I have had.

• Inside may be more forgiving on the AC unit during early season.
• Outside saves my shop space and would look just like a shed.
• Looking for a used walk in door as this will be the hardest to get a good seal. (open to input)
• Insulation is key: only foam or sprayed in, no fiberglass.
• This all hinges on the Coolbot being a viable option - Concerns AC unit could freeze up.
• My wife already pointed out I have shot a deer yet this year.
• Would need to pick up a grinder.

Advice or experience?

I have 3/4" ar500 that I've used for 300-600 yards successfully when toying with my 50bmg. It takes the hits without a mark except for the edge shots obviously.

My friend wants to try his 50bmg out at longer ranges and that target is too small. We will be using ball ammo (So that means even though it is not AP, they usually have a mild steel core). All targets are swinging.

What distance do I have to put my 3/8" ar500 to not bow it or leave marks on it? (We aren't talking about hundreds of rounds, and I accept that if there is an edge shot it will deform it there).

What about for my 3/8" ar400 plate? I have one that I use for 1000+ yards for my 338lm and it has worked great. But not sure if it will hold up at even a mile for 50bmg.
