Fantastic weapons sight - Pulsar Apex XD38A Thermal Rifle Scope

I purchased this product after doing months of research into thermal imaging rifle scopes and looking at all the major brands ATN, ZEUS, IR HUNTER. I used a buddies Pulsar 750 NV after using it for several hunts, I decided to take a chance on Pulsar. I am very glad I did. As a predator hunter, the resolution is fine for accurate shooting to 200yds in pitch dark no moon environments. The unit is picking up thermal signatures, so nothing can hide, I watched a coyote approach at 300yds just to settle in a patch of brush at 150yds and proceed to heat the twigs around him. I would also recommend using a handheld device to scout and leave the scope for shooting as the batteries do burn out quickly 2-3 hrs of use. In hunting situations I have been very impressed, Coyotes that are usually adept at avoiding detection are on the losing end of thermal technology, furthermore the automatic calibration setting acted as an unintentional game call. It makes a high pitched squeaky sound, pulling a coyote in from 100yds to 35yds to investigate. What I thought was initially a problem turned into an asset. Identifying animals at 350yds is easy, though as you magnify the image resolution decreases, because unlike a conventional scope your resolution is fixed in a digital pixel format, so you are just making the pixels larger without refinement, seeing a pixelated image. This doesn't effect shot placement from what I have experienced. I like the feature of multiple weapon memory, meaning you can have 3 saved reticles each for a different yardage or gun. The one shot zero is pretty intuitive although it's MOA is 1" not 1/4". I have figured out the best hunting combination of brightness, but there is better clarity on the lower settings. For $2,999 you can't beat the price and it's far better than Night Vision for the same price.
