Pulsar is now shipping the new Apex XD38A thermal imaging rifle scope they announced at the 2015 SHOT Show. Along with this announcement, the company has finalized the specifications on the scope.

The scope uses a white hot and black hot technology that allows the shooter to swap back and forth for the best image depending on the conditions. The frame rate is 50 mhz and the resolution is 384×288. Magnification is 1.5-6x 32.

According to the company, the internal shock dampening system keeps everything working correctly up to and including the recoil from a .374 H&H Magnum bolt action rifle. So, mounting one on your AR chambered in 300 BLK for a hog hunt should not pose any problems.

The scope includes 10 different reticles and uses a picture-in-picture feature for a zoomed in look at the target. The MSRP is $3,299.99.

    You must mean Hz, not MHz. If it would be the latter that would be a quantum leap (literally) in nIR sights.

    Do they have a IR light on them?

      @Old Tofu Thank goodness, this would then be one of the legal sights for hunting in Norway (artificial light is sorta verboten in Norway, so no IR light or flashlights).
