Anyone have any input on this contraption? The reviews are about 50/50. Seems that you either love it or don't due to battery life and software glitches.
Im building a 300 BLK for hog hunting and will mostly be hunting at dusk/dark so the day and night modes are a huge factor. All the other crap it does would just be lagniappe.

Figured Id see what the OB has to say before I drop the coin for it.

This one is night vision and not thermal imaging?

I do a LOT of night hog hunting (I have a Night Optics D740 and a Flir RS64)and just recently purchased a new AR10 and a Sightmark Photon XT scope. So far the Sightmark is my favorite, it is a little cheaper, about half the weight of the ATN you are looking at and it also comes with a built in illuminator.

I looked through this guy's scope the other weekend who had just your standard green light mounted on top of it. IIRC, it was a Surefire, but it worked well out to 100 yards. I think he said he paid like $150 for it

Armasight Zeus would be my go-to thermal optic. The ATN Thor seems awesome as well. Zeus has amazing reviews as well.
