NEW member/predator hunting - Advice for Night Vision Monocular

[svan]

Hi Guys: New to the forum! I'm out in the country and own a fair sized piece of property. I'd like to do what I can to reduce the Coyote population. I'm wanting to purchase a Night Vision Monocular for scanning. My very general specifics would be IR first/Thermal 2nd. Be able to attach to a tripod. Good to at least 400 yds. Budget is top end approx. a grand. Any suggestions for what I may look at the would meet those criteria. Thanks a bunch in advance.

I’d purchase a thermal for scanning vs NV.

I’d purchase a thermal for scanning vs NV.

Given that, any recommendations of make/model that will fit my criteria?

Unfortunately no, most thermal scanners are over a grand.

You might be able to find a 384 agm seeker/tiapan v2 for under 1k. I got mine from scheels on a price match for $980 if I remember correctly.

Might look at the Rix3, it's list price is 899.00 Picked one up last fall and been using it this season. Does everything I need. Picture below is of coyotes that were about 700 yards out.
