Best thermal for the money - Pulsar Trail XQ38 2.1-8.4x32mm Thermal Imaging Rifle Scope

I was on the fence between the XQ or the XP model of this scope. At my work, we have the XP50 Helion monoculars. Their resolution is amazing. I was trying to stay within a budget but was worried that I would be disappointed with the lower resolution XQ model. I talked to a professional guide who does thermal pig hunts and sells thermal scopes for a living. He recommended the XQ, saying that money vs. quality, it was a no brainer. Unless you are rich and just want to one-up your buddy, there isn't enough noticeable difference between the XQ and XP to justify paying another 2K.
After getting the scope and using it, I completely agree. The resolution and sensitivity are great. I am 100% satisfied.
