Nox 35mm

First hunt impressions

Got unit. Didn’t have the coin. Included paperwork was ok but needed to find users manual on line to zero. Got unit mounted on an AR 10/308 with 16”barrel. Zeroed at 100 meters. No issues. Hitting targets out to 100 ok. Not happy with scope clarity at higher magnification. It was hard to find point of aim at 100m. Target was a steel contractor tape in a cross with middle open as aiming point. Used torch to heat up tape to show up on thermal. Needed higher mag to even see target 6x. 8 x was useless. Lesser mag was not good either. Clarity is lacking at 100 m and beyond than what I was expecting. Using retical 7. What distance drop are the gas marks? Ie at 200/300/400 meters? I like the easy menu. Really easy to get through after review of user manual. I love the zeta process. Very easy. Will take out this weekend to work out Dope/aiming points on retical. Ordered 2 additional batteries. Really like the rechargeable batteries. The included 123 battery did not last very long on my zero outing. Shipping was great. I am not fully done reviewing as I need to take it out more. But due to lacking clarity at 200 m in— I would not recommend this unit to someone looking to shoot past 100 meters with accuracy.

Great thermal, great service from SOK!

Strictly Offensive Kit answered all my questions and got the excellent thermal to me in time for a big hunt. The image is incredible! Sight in was intuitive without reading the manual and precise adjustments allow an exact zero (some thermals have coarse adjustments that only let you get a rough zero). I usually use the rechargeable battery (included) but I keep 123s around as backup since it can run on a single 123 battery. That’s a very handy feature. I’m thrilled so far!… the coyotes are not! Thanks SOK!
