Great performance for the money. - Pulsar Trail XQ50 2.7-10.8x42mm Thermal Imaging Rifle Scope

After tons of research and finally rolling the dice, this XQ50 just performs great. Power for power among pulsar thermals, only the XP50 has better resolution and not by much. The 2.7 native mag is great for the open pastures and longer range shots. If your plots were smaller and felt the need for more FOV then the XQ38 would fit the bill. Pulsar just came out with Version 3 firmware that finally enabled the sound and has other enhancements. The battery life is great. The only negative is the long scope mount. If Pulsar had a 640 unit with a 2.7 base magnification, I would have gone that way. As is, I'm really pleased with this scope.
