Thermal scope recommendations

[Hnthrdr]

Definitely is!

Off the cuff recommendation would be a Rix L6R for $4,499 and a Rix K3 scanner for $899 puts you at $5,398 total. Lot of bang for your buck but that's definitely biasing the budget towards the scope vs the scanner. Dropping down to a NocPix Lumi P13 scanner would get you down to $5,048 but a 256 scanner is going to be rough. Could save some money on the scope and go with a Pulsar XP50 for $3,999.97 but you drop down to 2X base mag vs 2.8X on the L6R.

Would highly recommend an LRF for shooting out to 500. Ballistic calculator like on the L6R and XP50 will definitely help as well. Estimates distances in thermal can be challenging.

Before really providing a recommendation tailored to your needs I would want more info:

• Gas gun or bolt gun? Tube style scopes like the L6R work well on both, compact style scopes work very well on gas guns but have some ergonomic issues on bolt guns
• Taking more shots at 100 or more at 500? More base mag is better for further out but will hamper you up close.
• Do you prefer to have a better scanner or a better scope?

Lots of other combos out there that will work in that budget range. Feel free to PM me with more questions, can always find a time to hop on a call too.

I’ll try to find a time to give you a call this is some great information, I am leaning towards putting it on a gas gun, but I also have some bolts it could go on as well
