RIX Storm Thermal Imaging Rifle Scope for Hunting – High-Sensitivity Thermal Scope with Advanced Thermal Optics, NETD＜25mK, 50Hz, Waterproof & Lightweight

This is my first thermal I have ever bought and I absolutely love it. I bought the S2 version to save a little money and to try it out without breaking the bank for a thermal. Very impressed with the ease of use and the image quality of the RIX. The video is before I mounted it and was watching a coyote walk right behind the house about 100 yds out. After mounting it to a 300 Blackout it was time to sight it in. Was able to zero it in with one shot using the sighting in feature and the included thermal targets in broad daylight with ease. Went back out the next day a shot a few rounds to make sure zero was still held. Took the RIX thermal off and added it to a .22 and was able to zero that gun as my second gun. The pics of the target are at 100 yds for the 300 blackout using the included thermal target. The .22 was sighted in at 50 yds. Also zeroed it on 5.56. It’s nice that you can store multiple zeroes if you plan on moving the thermal between guns. Next came some testing on moving the scope back and forth between the 3guns and seeing if zero would be held. Shot about 200 rounds between the 3 guns moving the scope between the 3 and it held zero perfect during the shooting. As long as you lock it on the rail in the same place as you zeroed it from, it worked flawlessly. This thermal is a game changer for seeing what’s out there at night. So far so good and I will definately be buying RIX again. Excellent value for the money spent.

Not their top of the line but for the price it seems to be a quality product and works for what I wanted it for. Customer service was quick and very good when I called in to get clarification on adjustments for sighting it. Sent me extra info that was not in the manual. THe only thing I could ask more for one is that it had a built in range finder as that is hard to tell on any thermal scope that doesn't have it. Very satisfied after a number of months of intermittent use.

Easy to set up, and the best purchase we’ve made. We have critters that get into our pastures and mess with our baby calves. We are able to see them clearly, and accurately remove them. It isn’t heavy and will fit on any gun. You can program it to save different guns, so you just pick which gun you want it on and select that on the scope! The battery lasts a very long time, and it comes with an extra and a charger for the batteries. It’s light weight and all around a great product. 10/10 recommend!

Finally got it , for the price you’ve paid (on sale ) it is a good thermal . Not much can hide from your scope , of course there are limitations , if it’s behind something bigger like a small mound or a thick tree then you won’t be able to see it . Of course at night they can’t see you , but you can work your way around to see them from different angles . The reason I went for this one is because it look like user friendly , it’s not over complicated when it comes to buttons and options/ setting . Battery last pretty long even on mid level setting and usage , and in the cold . I love the lens cover, easy push button to open . This one have way more adjustability when it comes to elevation and windage then some other digital scope that I have . Cons: Even at close range 20-30 yards , it’s hard to tell if it’s a red squirrel or a small rabbit , or a bird (at night) . You need to manually focus at different range to clear up the images when switching between close range and far away 10 yards to 60 yards . Definitely need a range finder built in (of course that’s probably on the higher end models) . Improvements/ suggestions: I know some of these on the higher end have better status then this one , but I do wish it have a day time feature, so that you can zero the scope during the day . Bigger field of view would be nice , of course if you link this to your smart phone that’s an option they have . It would be nice to have a smart phone holder attachment that come with this then . Again at the end of the day , it is a good starter thermal for the price .

Overall good quality. However it does have a small field of view. Wish it was 1.5 power instead of 3.5 ! This would help with faster target acquisition. Clarity is good. I have only used as a spotter so far, thus I can't give opinion on ease of reticle adjustment. It sure beats not having a thermal if it's all you can afford. Rix is great brand overall.

Works great at a great price too!!! I’m glad I went with this one!!

This scope is an excellent option for newcomers to thermal hunting/viewing. Easy to use, clear picture, hold zero well so far. Bonus points for excellent customer service. Had an issue with the language switching and was able to call customer service and had them walk me through with ease. That alone is enough to make me a return customer.

I was pleasantly surprised at how well this detected deer and coyote. I could easily tell the difference between the two and this coyote was shot at 175 yards. Once you get past 300 yards, it’s harder to distinguish between the two but you can easily detect deer up to 900 yards. The battery life was great as well. I hunted for 5.5 hours and it still showed 1/4 battery left. It has 5 different thermal options as well as 9 different reticle options. Very easy to zero and the zero stays solid. I switched guns and set up another profile and when I switched back, my zero was still on. I have shown a few friends and they have bought them as well.
