At this year’s optics test I got to witness the reactions of people using thermal scopes for the first time. The giggle factor was somewhere between shooting full-auto and driving a race car, but it’s not just fun to view wildlife with thermal. It’s a highly effective way to hunt hogs and predators at night. It’s also far superior to a night vision scope for finding animals.

The downside is that thermal scopes are expensive. Think of them like a digital camera, you can get a cheap camera that produces grainy, low quality footage or you can spend thousands on one that shoots cinema-quality video. Thermals are no different. Cheaper scopes (under $1,000) produce a lower-resolution image, but they are still useable for hunting at closer ranges — usually inside 100 yards. As you go up in price, and resolution, the ability to detect and identify animals improves.

One of my favorite brands for budget thermals is AGM and the AGM Rattler is our current pick for the best value clip-on sight. They have a few scopes and monoculars on sale for Prime Day (Oct. 8-9). Here are the best deals I found.
