I have discovered that taping aluminum foil over the “bulls eye” of a paper target works great! (At least with the brand and model of thermal that I am familiar with)

At night, will the screen light up your face, or at low ready your torso? How is it in the daytime?

Answered by Jonathan D., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 03, 2019

Depending on what mode you have the unit in, it has the potential to illuminate the user. It works well in daylight, however it only shows variances in temperature.

Could you use a magnifier with this?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Jonathan D., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 03, 2019

This unit is not designed to be used with a magnifier. You could use a magnifier but you'll be magnifying a digital image which would lead to image quality loss and pixelation.

Will this thermal be able to handle a 300 win mag?

Expert Answer

Answered by Jonathan D., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 03, 2019

Most thermals are rated up to a .308. We would not recommend mounting this on a rifle chambered 300 WIN MAG.

This will work for up to 200 yards, even a bit more and it is rated up to .308 so it will work for .223 and .308. Unfortunately Sig does not sell the Romeo1 plate separately, however if you contact them directly, they might be able to provide you with that part.

Would this work well for night time hog hunting?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Armando R., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 19, 2018

The ECHO1 is really only effective out to about 50-75 yards, so it will depend on your exact hunting environment and conditions.
