Good morning yall, I was prepping to get into the thermal market. I've only done some homework on the higher end Pulsar stuff like the XP50 LRF PROs. They're quite expensive but I can rely on the higher end stuff for having better resolution. Im not in a rush to buy so my budget can vary for the time being but ideally the less cash used the better. Hopefully I'd be using it to hunt deer, hogs, etc. on a 308 AR platform. Would yall recommend buying a "budget" thermal scope to pop my cherry or just go straight to the top to avoid wasting cash? What thermal scopes do yall have experience with / own?
