For those that have never equipped their rifles with a thermal scope before, the world of thermal optics can be intimidating, much as the world of conventional glass optics can be.
But admittedly there are other layers to this, making it slightly more complex. This short post will take a closer look at one of the industry’s premier thermal scope, from Nocpix, the ACE S60R, by feature and specification.

- Compatibility with standard 30mm scope mounts and rings for easy mounting.
- A footprint that mimics conventional glass optics for a streamlined profile.
- A NETD rating of 15mK or better, which increases thermal sensitivity for greater clarity even under adverse conditions or given smaller thermal differentials.
- A 12μm sensor with a 50Hz frame rate, for smooth, lag-free viewing for easier tracking and shot execution, even on moving targets.
- Reality+ Imaging Enhancement that improves image clarity by reducing noise.
