Pulsar Thermion 2 XP50 PRO Thermal Rifle Scope is on Sale for $1,000 Off
This scope usually costs $5,000, but it’s on sale for $4,000. It uses a 640×480 sensor, which is the standard for high-res thermal scopes. It has a 2X base magnification and a 1,968 yard detection range. I’d consider it a mid-range optic that’s ideal for hunting shots from 0 to 300 yards.
Save $1,000 on a Pulsar Thermion 2 LRF XL50 Thermal Rifle Scope with Laser Rangefinder
You don’t have any depth perception looking though a night optic, so you’ll need a laser rangefinder to make precision shots. You can go with a handheld thermal rangefinder, which is ideal if you’re hunting with a friend. But if you’re hunting solo, an integrated rangefinder is the way to go. The Thermion 2 LRF won “best hog killing thermal” at our annual optics test for its ability to quickly find and range targets. Read the full review for more info.
