Who's had experience using these two together ranging at night ?

Hecque I wouldn't be surprised if just the RRS stuff in that pic wasn't approaching $5k !! :D

Now I thought the issue with using Vectronix with 14s was the Vectronix were 1550nm ranging lasers, so not visible with 14s. Maybe some of them have two di-odes and can switch to 905nm ?

The 14 is behind the eyepiece. Are the Digital bits on the PLRF NV-rated?

For a single PVS-14 you can use a MonoLoc on the right ocular.

I've used the Ashbury setup and it can be a little tricky because the rubber on the PLRF body gets in the way of easily threading the adapter on. On darker nights it can be hard to get ranges beyond maybe 800 yards because the picture is so dark it can be hard to tell what you're ranging. Also, it goes without saying but the numbers can be hard to read because the PVS will be focused at distance. But if there's bright ambient light like in a city, the results can be impressive IMO.

Very Good Intel !!!!!!!!
 
I made a mount for my vectors. I’ve ranged out to 5k plus at night multiple times. The Nv setting on the vectronix works great. Not too bright so good for the toobies.

Ha! I saw this post and was scrolling down to post about your set up. I see you beat me to it.
These things work awesome with a set of WP L3 PVS-14s.
