Need Help With Thermal

**V-MAN** · September 8th, 2020, 02:17 PM

I have been looking and researching various thermal scopes. Seems the more I look/read the less sure I am on my decision. If you guys have personal experience with thermal scopes and wouldn't mind giving me some advice I would appreciate it greatly. I can spend 2-3K, I know that leaves a lot of choices out! Thanks

you first need to decide if you want a dedicated scope, or a viewer/monocular (pvs14 type). 2-3 k is on the lower end, but you have a few choices in that range.

If you come out to montgco, I can let you look through $8k worth of thermal scope.

Take a look at Bering Optics Hogster 35R...the cost is around $2,500.

Thanks for your reply, I for sure want a dedicated scope. Probably quick connect and zeroed for two rifles so it could be moved between the two.

Thanks for the offer. That would just confirm where I'm leaning. There are a couple in the 7-8K range that I like a lot but just not in my budget at least for now!

Thank you, I met these guys at an NRA even in Dallas a few years back. I had forgotten about them, their products seemed like they offered a great value. I will take a look!!
