Good afternoon everyone. Forgive me if this has been answered before but could not find anything. Went hunting night before last and was successful with my night vision scope even though it was raining pretty hard. My buddy had a thermal and his view was much better. I decided to buy one myself because I liked his view and with my distance to stalk I want to shoot farther away. Now I have read that some use hand warmers to provide a heat source at an indoor range but do not think they would appreciate the mess. I am trying to find a good way. I think one person used a paper towel soaked in hot water and a few have said they rubbed their thumb on the target. What have you all used for success? Thank you.

I have used those little water bottles (hot or cold) with success.
These days I just put the paper in front of a steel bullet trap and quarter the, never the same temperature, paper target. Like this.
Take a shot, make corrections, then send a couple more to confirm.
Sometimes the easiest solution works just fine.

I never would have thought of that. Simple but genius.

In the mil, I used hand warmers, and MRE heaters at longer distances for machine guns.
