Hello Everyone,
I am hoping to get some advice on several things. I have been a long time reader here and I am impressed by everyone's knowledge. So, thank you in advance for the advice.
I am looking at getting either the Pulsar Core RXQ30V or the Flir Thermosight Pro Series PTS233. The scope will be mounted on either an M4 5.56 or a Bolt Action 308.
1. I am nearsighted (recent development) and new to even using scopes. (I actually just purchased my first scope a month ago and things look ok at a distance without glasses for it.) Will I need to wear glasses using a thermal?
2. My small acreage sits in the middle of 175 acres of farm ground in Iowa. I have a serious coyote problem that I need help with. Between the two scopes above which one would help me identify coyotes better and also have good battery life for eliminating these vermin?
3. Video Recording and extras are not that important to me. I mostly need help with killing coyotes. What would be the pros and cons between the two scopes I have listed?
4. How does weather factor in for using thermal? It gets pretty cold here in Iowa and will either one of the scopes be affected by that?
