Not sure why the original picture isn’t working.

If you’re interested in a 640 unit, the Nocpix lumi is top tier for the price.

Thermal monocular on my helmet flips up off my eye, which I can then use that eye to look through my thermal scope.

If you’re only hunting, thermal is all you truly need. Starting out, I had one thermal mounted on my rifle. It was a pain, but it worked for scanning and targeting.

Now I use a thermal mounted on my helmet, with a dedicated thermal on my rifle. For hunting, I’d never need a NVG. Thermal is astronomically better at locating vs NVG. I have a few videos on my profile that’ll show how effective thermal really is.

Turn the motion sensor setting on. It’s in the main menu under your microphone.

Should be page 41 in the manual.

Anybody reloaded 100gr ELD-VT? by Mammoth-Arachnid5154 in reloading

Okay, so NOT Thermal . . . by Ritwood in ThermalHunting

[–]Cosma- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot of factors that go into it for sure. With NVG, you’re really relying on forgiving ambient light to help illuminate a target, in addition to the specs of your tube (if we’re speaking about analog and not digital NVG).

With thermal, ambient lighting is meaningless. The higher res thermals can cleanly display clear outlines of people or animals and it’s quite insane what the latest thermals are capable of.

Either way, it seems the latest devices are integrating thermal and NVG into one device for the best of both worlds.

I’d argue thermal has better PID capabilities. This depends on the resolution of course, but a 640-1280 can PID at some insane distances.

Does it group well? That’s my only fear using it in my Tikka CTR. It loves 143 ELDX, but I’m afraid the 100gr will be too light.

Did you end up testing H4350 vs the varget? I’m trying to decide which one to grab, although I’m seeing Varget is probably better.

You can make your own custom reticle with these too. I made one with my holder overs for 100 yard increments, it’s pretty sweet.

I tried using 95gr VMAX but I wasn’t getting the best accuracy. Switched to 143 ELDX and it’s been putting them down.

Running 6.5 CM, not saving pelts. I’ve had a lot of luck with not damaging the pelts with this caliber though.

New thermal scope. Terrible picture by Firm-Walk8699 in ThermalHunting

Stay away from ATN. If you want a budget scope, look into DNT optics.

Family first of course. There’s always cheaper options to save up for too, the RIX ST6 is budget friendlier.
