Now, these aren’t just restricted to the Axion range, they are also available on other new releases from Pulsar such as the Mergers and new Thermion range.

Pulsar Merger VS HIKMICRO Raptor RQ50L: Honest review by Jon Lee Everton

Product competition is wonderful for the consumer; the manufacturers strive to improve their product offerings and use the latest technology to keep their competitive edge. Spoiler alert - as a previously satisfied owner of both the Pulsar Accolade and Pulsar Merger and now a current user of the HIKMICRO Raptor RQ50L, I have to say that for me, HIKMICRO has set a new level when it comes to offering the latest technology in a thermal/night vision spotter. Read on to find out why…

Just my brief initial input after obtaining a Pulsar C50 recently and being able to do a direct side-by-side comparison with a WULF 4K.

The C50 day mode colour display seems more lifelike and the detail is just as good as the 4K (when at its basic 3.5x), and it also has a lovely wide FOV compared to the WULF. However, it all changes when you start to Digi-mag up for Zeroing (in daylight @ 100yds in my case). As the C50 suffers a lot of noise and the target visibly shivers with the black edges to the target becoming very indistinct at 14x. The WULF is excellent in comparison even past the equivalent 14x of the C50. Although the C50 does benefit from PIP the WULF

Paul Austin from Rifle Shooter Magazine recently took three of the latest Day & Night Vision Scopes for a side-by-side comparison.

Are you looking to purchase a Thermal Monocular or Rifle Scope yet have little understanding of what it all means?

Well, we've debunked the Thermal jargon making it easier for you to make a decision on what Thermal Optic best suits your needs.

Long gone are the days of shops having to keep hundreds of different Mounts; Tikka, Sako, Ruger etc. Many of these are indeed still available but much simpler now is the option to convert these dedicated mounting systems with a standard Picatinny Rail for which conversions are available for most nowadays, especially on Dovetail receivers where the Picatinny Rail greatly enhances stability and security.

A very common question I receive from customers is “Is it better to have a Thermal Spotter and a Thermal Scope OR a Thermal Spotter and a Night Vision Scope?’' 

In order for this to be answered, there are a few questions that I tend to ask the customer back.

Ever since the Pulsar Thermion range has been out there has always been debate as to which is going to sell the best within the market, hence the introduction of various new sensor sizes that we have never seen before, and the large range of options available throughout.
