Default best trail camera for the money?

i was looking into wildgame inovations cams because they offer 5 cameras under $100 but after reading the reviews i changed my mind. i'm on a serious hunting budget this year and i'm looking for the best quality camera with infrared that won't break the bank. any help would be appreciated

same here. The ir4 worked really well for me and the batteries lasted all season, and I had a ton of pictures. Get yourself a memory card and set it up. Believe me, it's worth the money.

I just finished up some testing on cameras and the Wildgame X6C is a great buy for a $120.00 at you door.

Here is my test thread:

i agree the wildgame x6c is probably the best infrared camera for the money right now. i also have the wildgame ir4 and that is a good camera as well.

According to chasingame.com, WGI has really come a long way this year.

I like the X6C, also. It`s a very nice cam for the money. The picture quality is nice, trigger time is adequate and the IR array is plenty bright enough.

I don`t think it`s a great cam for trails. If it`s put on mineral licks, scrapes, rubs, and feeders, it`ll make most people happy.

I`ve, only, had mine for a week, but, I`m very happy with it.

This is the cheapest place I`ve found: http://www.eders.com/products/wildga...a-wir-apg.html
