Good day.

I read through many of the topics on here regarding the topic but I’m not sure if I could find and answer to my questions.

I am former infantry and got to use more than a few thermal and night vision devises. I try to keep up with some standard of tactics and shooting in the civ div. Things have certainly changed since the GWOT days. Unfortunately my budget is not the same as the military. I do some coyote hunting on my property and plenty of LARPing with the boys.

I live in the west mountain area and frequently run and gun and shoot some longer ranges usually out to 1000m

My 6.5 Grendel in a 12.5” barrel has really been good to me and I would like to get a clip on thermal scope for that rifle. It’s topped with a Burris xtr 2 2x10. What clip on should I consider with a budget of around 3-5k. What models should I keep an eye out for on the new and used market to put on this rifle considering the limited rail space. Ideally I would like to shoot out to 500 yards using the thermal device.

sig has a new clip on coming out , cv25 , that looks interesting

iray just released a v2 rh25 , good all around unit and the v2 should be better in the clip on roll

i have a bering optics super yoter clip on and it's pretty nice for the under 5k units

if you could stretch your budget some the nox thermals are awesome and usa made

The Infiray MAH50 is available where I am but I didn't see anyone reccomend it. Amy reason it's not on people's lists? Also I was looking for something that would work with 10x magnification minimum.

You lost us with "Iray" and "work with 10x magnification minimum..." How much demag does the unit have? It will have to be a premium unit with lots of demag to support more than 10-12x mag... The imaging quality provided in many reviews of units like this are deceptive

I know nothing about them or thermals in general except a few people had reccomended them on here a while ago. One person hog hunting with it said it worked well at higher magnification settings and most of my scopes reticles are difficult to use at much less than 10x.

Sorry I shouldn't have said minimum, just 8-10x would work best for me and I wasn't sure if that was realistic.
