I just ordered a PVS-14 Gen3 PINNACLE Night Enforcer NV Optic and a Green LDI-DBAL-D2 Class 1 IR Laser with IR Illuminator and a LDI-ITAL Green Laser Pointer from Tactical Night Vision for my SIGs from TNVC.
Sure hope my new NV gear works as well as my Olight M3-X Green LED does @ 225 yards! :D

I had just setup for coyotes about 7:30PM in pitch darkness, no stars as there was a big storm coming up over us. Turned on my PB caller and did a couple of domain calls as there was a lone coyote male howling like mad out behind the house the night before at this time and I thought he'd probably be back again.
No sooner did five minutes pass and a herd of hogs came out of the woods into my little prairie opening.
Turned on the Olight M3-X with green filter and put the crosshairs of my Leopold VR-X 1-4 Pig Plex FireDot on his shoulder and pulled the SIG 556 trigger.
At 225 yards I could hear a nice THWAK when the bullet hit him and put him down, walked out and he started to get up so I shot him again in the head and he was DRT.
It was a big 325 pound boar hog. There were quite a few more that size or bigger in the group.

Timely. I'm using the ASYM version of this on Wednesday on hogs. Glad to see it's a good choice.

Good luck and post some pics if you smack a snacker with the Barnes TSX...;)

Could not go out target practicing today because it rained all day long, however I took the SIG 556 with an Olight M-20 Crimson out after dark and immediately shot this hog in the head at 100 yards DRT. :D

How did you mount the Olight to your scope? Wonder will it fit in one of the rail mounts? I have a green light on order but its on back order right now, it comes with a rail mount, but I would like to have a red light for another gun.
also I have been pretty happy with the 62 grain TSX over 26.5 grains of TAC as fired from a Colt Carbine, its actually quite accurate even though I struggle with the Colt trigger.

Postmortem is a brain stem/C1 hit…instant death, DRT.

Man this ITT PVS14-17 is awesome, one shot @ 255 yards in the head with a handloaded Barnes TSX 70 grain dropped right there! :D
Wish I had this nice piece of NV gear 5 years ago...
