What the best bet in the $3K range for an optic that you’d mount on a rifle. Is this Sig Echo 3 a decent option??

Avoid the Sig and big stores like optics planet. Plenty of site sponsors will hook you up at competitive prices. Exactly which thermal you need depends on your application. It’s like asking what pickup you should buy; it depends. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: OP what is your opinion on night vision scopes? I currently have neither. In a perfect world I’d like to have a combination of night vision & thermal using different devices. Good night vision paired with something like a Flir Scout could probably work as well. I’m open to suggestions |

Another vote for bering optics super hogster.
Great for longer ranges. If you don't have long range hunting get the hogster for wider field of view. |

Night vision to shoot thermal to scan. Night vision is where its at for accuracy and battery life thermal is for finding things.

Is the PVS-4 a good night vision scope for cheap?
