Suggestions on thermal scopes for rifle

[Dustbuster]

All suggestions appreciated. I know theyre not cheap and u get what u pay for. Am tossed up between agp and atn, i know resolution is important as well. Read reviews on a load of stuff, hate to invest in junk….looking to run coyote and some hogs later.

thanks!

What is your price range? Euro optic has a sale on Trijicon now. I run two N-vision scopes. Some of the Iray scopes look way better than they should for the price.

I've had a Reapir it was a good scope.

The specs on this scope doesn't look great, but the scope looks fantastic for what it is. The package deal with the LRF is a decent setup. I does have Chinese parts assembled in Texas with a 5 year warranty.

Think I found a good one one: IR Rico Alpha 4 am on a fencepost on it though

The imaging and warranty is amazing..decisions

Not sure if you have purchased yet but I'd stay away from ATN. My experience with them has been crap

Pulsar, IRAY, Bering Optics are go to for dare I say cheaper thermals. 

Right now I'm on the Iray train after being pulsar and bering.  

The other night with my Iray bolt.Got it during the sale.

I am a fan of AGM.  I have the TC35-384 clip on.  I am very happy with it.  ATN has gotten a bad reputation over the years.  I don't care for the built in battery.  If your battery goes bad, you are without until you get it back from being repaired.  AGM uses cr123's, both rechargeable and non-rechargeable.  Just something to consider.

Here is some video from my pulsar XP50 the other night. I’m a big fan of pulsar optics. Have some buddies with AGM rattlers and Bering hogsters and they are good too. One of my buddies just ordered a pulsar talion and I’m waiting for it to come in so I can check it out.

That’s is really clear. What was the distance?

[Ropin4gold]

That was about 70ish yards. It’s a 640 core scope so it has good definition especially when it’s cold out.

What caliber were you using? That pig dropped like a rock.

6.5 Grendel. Hornady black. It hammers them.

I will be buying the AGM Rattler V2 for my LWRC Razorback 2, it is not cheap, very expensive but besides a suppressor in the future will be the only other thing needed on my rifle

So I ended up upgrading to an iray Rico. Here is two weekends ago. 60yds. Never mind the third shot miss my buddy can’t hit ####!
