Thermal and preparedness.

That thermal range finder seems super legit. I didn't know that such a thing even existed?

It’s a laser range finder built into a thermal monocular.

Is anyone considering a clip on Thermal like the Accufire Incendis? You can install this in front of your regular scope, use it standalone, or use it as a monocular?

Yes, this is why people like the iRay RH25, which literally does it all, except for the magnified thermal (ex: Hogster) and thermal overlay (ex: COTI) use cases.

I ended up going with this. Rangefinder, too. Good for pigs and tyrants. $2100 on eBay.

I decided to buy a second thermal scope as my handheld scanner. That way, if primary scope goes down, I can send it back to manufacturer and still have a scope to continue hunting with until I get it returned.

Thanks I'll check it out. I did see the iRay 75 and wow, but $16k is a bit pricey :-)

If you're looking to dip just a part of a toe into the thermal pool this is 80% off right now. I may get one just to see if it's usable at like 50 yards.

That’s tempting. Good for picking up people at 100m, I’d bet.

Here’s a pretty good summary of the different types, history, and pros & cons:

Wow, thanks for the link to brilliant.org.

(Night vision video was also excellent!)

I read the reviews and bought one. Cheap handheld thermal (even with the meh resolution and 9hz refresh), and I may screw around with it weapon-mounted to a 22 as well.

Did you ever get a good recipe for tyrants?

I figure you could cook up tyrants just like pigs, but with lower expectations…and more BBQ sauce.

Roger that. Don’t forget the internal temp…165

I wonder if the cheeks are good. Maybe just to be avoided since they’ve only been full of bullchit and lies

I’d trash the cheeks. Probably tough from all the flapping. Plus the marinades of bullchit and lies you mentioned.
