The Pulsar Thermion 3 LRF XT60 is a flagship thermal riflescope engineered for wide-area nocturnal pest control and commercial culling operations. Built around a high-definition 1280 × 1024 uncooled microbolometer sensor with a 12 µm pixel pitch and sub-20 mK thermal sensitivity, it delivers detailed heat signatures across a 2,800 m to 3,100 m detection range. The optic pairs a fast 60 mm F/1.0 germanium objective lens with an integrated 1,200 m laser rangefinder housed within a traditional 30 mm aircraft-grade scope chassis. Driven by onboard ballistic calculation software and a 2560 × 2560 AMOLED display, the Thermion 3 LRF XT60 generates real-time holdover solutions for high-calibre rifles subjected to heavy recoil.

Key Features

• Ultra-High-Definition Thermal Imaging: Utilises a 1280 × 1024 sensor running at 50 Hz with < 20 mK NETD to resolve fine target detail through foliage, dust, and adverse atmospheric conditions.
• Integrated 1,200 m Laser Rangefinder: Directly feeds target distances into the onboard ballistic calculation engine, communicating with the Stream Vision Ballistics app for automatic aiming point corrections.
• Extended Optical Performance: Combines a 60 mm F/1.0 lens with 2–24× continuous variable magnification and a wide 14.6° field of view (25.7 m at 100 m).
• Heavy Calibre Resistance: Recoil-rated up to 6,000 Joules to withstand firing impulses from heavy calibres including .375 H&H, 9.3×62, and 12-gauge shotguns.
• Dual Li-Ion Power Architecture: Houses an internal 4,900 mAh battery paired with an external, quick-release APS5 4,900 mAh pack, providing up to 8.5 hours of continuous operation at 22°C alongside USB-C Power Delivery support.
• Onboard Multimedia: Features 128 GB of internal memory for recoil-activated video recording, internal audio capture, and dual-band 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi connectivity.

Who is the Pulsar Thermion 3 LRF XT60 Thermal Riflescope for?

• Commercial pest controllers — requires the wide-area scanning speed of a 1280 × 1024 sensor with a 14.6° field of view, enabling rapid thermal detection of wild pigs and dogs across broad expanses before ranging them out to 1,200 m.
• Broadacre landowners — benefits from this high-definition thermal riflescope's sub-20 mK NETD thermal sensitivity and fast 60 mm F/1.0 lens to positively identify deer and foxes against low-contrast vegetative backgrounds at extended ranges.
• Professional hunting contractors — relies on the 1.3 kg assembly's rigid 30 mm tube design and 6,000-Joule recoil rating to maintain structural integrity and ballistic zero on heavy-calibre vehicle and fixed-stand platforms.

Less suitable for: Hunters taking shots at small targets beyond 400 metres where finer aiming adjustments are required (thermal scopes with a higher base magnification such as 4× and 10 mm click values fit this application better), or mobile hunters operating on foot over long distances where a 1.3 kg scope adds excessive mass (compact clip-on thermal optics or lightweight monoculars serve these setups better).
