    So I've been trying to decide between the XQ50 Pro and the older XG50 that is at about the same price now (closeout). I'm leaning to the XQ50, and this helps.. thanks.

    Great review! Maybe Pulsar dropping their price is their way of letting you buy the rings you need 😂 You pointed out some really good points I think most reviews miss. Awesome job!!

    Have you ever tried an ATN thor4 4-40 and compare it? I like ATN 18-hour run time. I don't understand why Pulsar installed an LRF on the scope when it doesn't move the crosshairs after ranging.
    I know the ATN LRF once ranged it automatically moves the crosshairs so all you do is shoot, and it's spot on as long as you have inputted the right ballistic information in the unit.
    I am on the fence on this one. I had recently seen some Chinese crap that once again was clearer than the new Pulsar thermal binoculars.
    It's sad that the Chinese make clearer thermal optics than the rest of the world.

      Hi RL J. I ran the Thor 4 4-40 for about 18 months. If you call ATN and barter with them you can get it for the same price as this scope so I can see why you ask.
      ATN thermal contrast settings are the worst, I think because of that they have 70% of the image quality that the rest of the options have. On really cold clear nights they’ll work as good as any scope. But as soon as it gets foggy, or windy, or warm weather their image gets rough fast.
      I liked the ballistic settings and had that setup. In the cold where the rangefinder has its own small battery it would act up and quit working. I’d have a coyote at 100-150 yards but the last thing that was ranged was 360 yards and I had to try to do the math backwards and messed my hunt up. Anytime I’d go through the menu and accidentally hit the up or down button when there was only left or right options the scope would freeze up. If only ATN had worked on quality upgrades as fast as they did technology upgrades they’d be leading the thermal industry.
      I would take this scope over a 4-40 every time.

    I’ve hunted through thermals but this is going to be my first thermal of my own. I just found this and subbed. Now that you’ve had it awhile still love it or no? Why not if that’s your answer. I see your using other scopes (guessing for reviews) but just curious your thoughts now.

    • @OwnTheHunt
      @OwnTheHunt  8 днів тому +1

      You picked a great scope! I don’t use this scope anymore but it’s only because I have been affordable opportunities to test others like you said. This scope is still a very very good scope for a 384 sensor it does a great job!

    Appreciate your time doing the review, have a question though, how is 17 micron better than 12? I recently purchased a thermion 2 pro lrf and using it next to my Iray Rico 384 for coyote hunting is big disappointment, image is way better on the Rico, especially in high humidity. I'm curios to try the xq50 just to compare it with the other ones I use.

    • @OwnTheHunt
      @OwnTheHunt  Рік тому +1

      Haven’t used an Iray thermal yet! Would like to. Here is a link to the video that made me understand the difference between 12 micron and 17.

      So I found that the cap that covers the charge port needs to be tight tight. So the slots in that cap line up with the microphone and allow sound to pass through. I hope this helps. There is also a setting in the menus to enable the microphone.

    • @OwnTheHunt
      @OwnTheHunt  Рік тому

      Thank you for watching! The rifle is a custom AR15 chambered in 6.5Grendel made by Specialized Dynamics and I love it! the Tripod is the Sunwayfoto T3240CS and the attachement on my rifle that allows it to connect to the tripod is called an MLOK arca plate. If you have an AR with an MLOK compatible rail then MLOK arca plate is what you need. If you have a Keymod AR rail then Keymod Arca plate is what you need.

    • @OwnTheHunt
      @OwnTheHunt  11 місяців тому +1

      The xp50 pro is really nice. It’s a little less base mag but the image quality is definitely much better. I would say you definitely don’t need the extra image quality in order to hunt and identify game but if you just want the best then it’s worth the extra money. I am still running this scope and I still really enjoy it. Next season I would like to bump up to a 640 scope.
