Guide TU650LS 640X512 Thermal Rifle Scope 50MM 3.7X Laser Rangefinder
SKU:
Description
The Guide TU650LS is the image-quality flagship of the 640 50mm line, built for hunters who want the cleanest picture money can buy in this class.
It pairs a 640x512 12-micron sensor and 50mm lens at 3.7x base magnification with a built-in laser rangefinder and a 2560x2560 QHD display, and its lower 15mK NETD resolves the faintest heat for the sharpest image of any 650.
Thermal reads heat, not light, so your Guide works in broad daylight as well as full dark. The payoff hunters miss: by day it picks hogs and deer out of thick brush, shade, and standing crops where a day scope sees nothing, their body heat gives them away.
Built for night predator and hog work: feral hogs and pigs, coyotes (yotes), bobcat, fox, and raccoon (coon), plus general predator and varmint control on the ranch. Mounts on an AR-15, bolt gun, or your hog rig.
Which Guide is right for you?
The LS is the top of the 650 50mm range: same 640 sensor and reach as the TU650 LRF 3.0 and LRF PRO, but a lower 15mK NETD for a noticeably cleaner image. Choose the TU650 LRF 3.0 to save (1080p display), the LRF PRO for the QHD display at 18mK, or this LS for the best detail. The TU650M MUO adds a day/night digital channel; the TU1260 jumps to 1280 resolution.

Common Questions
Does a thermal scope work in the daytime?
Yes. Thermal detects heat, not light, so it works day or night. In daylight it's deadly for finding game bedded in thick cover or shade.
Is it legal to hunt with a thermal scope?
Thermal is legal for hogs and most non-game predators in many states, but night-hunting rules vary by state and species. Check your state regulations before you hunt.
Does it have a built-in rangefinder?
Yes, a built-in laser rangefinder is integrated, so you range the target without taking your eye off the reticle.
Will it hold zero on my AR or magnum?
Yes, it's rated for hard-recoiling rifles and holds zero. We can walk you through the one-time zero before you head out.
Guide vs Pulsar or ATN, how do they stack up?
Guide builds the same 12-micron sensors found in scopes costing far more, which is why hunters pick them for the value. Call us and we'll compare honestly against what you're considering.
