[QUOTE="bigstickjrock, post: 2811586, member: 72378"] I have purchased 3 Wraith 4K Max this year. I use a thermal scanner to locate then the Wraith to identify. Notice the earlier post with pics of donkeys. Had he not said those were donkeys I would have assumed they weren't coyotes, but didn't see donkeys until he called it out. The rabbit was obvious. Thermal locates incredibly well. With the Wraith alone, unless hunting in open snow, locating means constant scanning through a scope mounted in a rifle. With a thermal scope you spot critters quick, but positive identification can be iffy. Pulling a trigger is a serious decision with consequences. The Wraith gives near day scope clarity at night. Not only can I see a deer, I can tell it is a buck and even judge the rack. Not saying I hunt deer this way, but trying to describe the amazing clarity. Add a hand held thermal to safely and quickly scan and then use the scoped rifle to identify and shoot. A thermal scope in a rifle requires constantly scanning through a rifle mounted optic and lacks the ability to clearly identify your target and what is behind it.
