Posting vids like that and sharing should fo the same but evem more effectively. Pretty awesome. That wasn't luck imo...that is good equipment, good setup, and some good skill. Thanks for sharing.

how do you figure the bullet drop with that? looks like your holding right on so is it programmed into the scope?
No it isn’t in the scope, I zero the scope at 200 yards and I held close to the top of the head on the coyot. I don’t have LRF, so I did a quick guess and figured for a 12”-16” drop and let it go. Got alittle lucky

I don't know squat about these things but Pulsar seems to be one of the better units. They look considerably different but beyond that, do by chance know what all is different and the pros and cons to the Trail series versus the Thermion?

The big advantage of the thermion is all the readily available mount systems since it’s a traditional scope profile. Also the thermion has a little better display than than xp50. The hot swap battery system is awesome too. Especially for coyote hunting. You can swap batteries without shutting down. Not a thing wrong with the trail though and personally i like the housing design. It more depends on your use application. Performance wise they’re about identical. The trails do offer a LRF which is a game changer because your depth perception is out the window with thermal. Remember base magnification is very important also. Do your homework and find out what you really want and can afford.

Appreciate the response, thank you.
Spent most of the day reading/learning about these things. Flying solo, the Trail 2 LRF XP50 would certainly have it's advantages. The Thermion XP50 has it's advantages too, they're just in a different ways.
Like most things, anything good, is always expensive. I'm guessing there is a learning curve to using these things, but it seems like it would be a lot of fun.
