TESTED: Topdon TS006 Thermal Riflescope
Topdon expands its outdoor thermal lineup with the value-oriented, performance-proven TS006 thermal riflescope
by Rob Reaser
The time for serious coyote hunting is not yet nigh in my neck of the woods, but thinking about it and prepping for it is a year-round affair. This year, I wanted to switch the clip-on thermal scope on my coyote blaster to a mounted scope. And just when my thoughts were turning to those crisp, clear nights and sunset howling, I got the opportunity to acquire and test a new thermal scope from the folks at Topdon.
Topdon is a big player in the automotive electronics segment. They are primarily known for their diagnostic, battery service, and thermal imaging tools. Recently, the company has leveraged their experience in thermal imaging technology to produce thermal monoculars and now thermal riflescopes.
Last fall, we tested a budget-priced thermal monocular from Topdon called the TS004. For the price, the unit came well-equipped. So, when I heard that the company was introducing their first thermal riflescope, I raised my hand to do a bit of testing.
