I just got a 6.5 Creedmore and was entertaining the idea of a digital scope. If you have one or have had any experiences with one plz share. I really don’t want to make a mistake. Thank y’all for all y’all do and for your service to the country.

I have the ATN XSight 4K, and have previously owned the X Sight II, 2 models of the Photon XT, and a Pulsar Digisight. The common thread (at least weaknesses) is that the image tends to blur a bit with long ranges, past 100 to 150 yards depending on the optic in the daytime. At night it’s shorter than that. You def won’t be identifying bullet holes at 200 with any of them. They also all need ambient light or a separate IR light source to work well. They all have a very high “cool factor” so if you don’t have experience with any of them I would highly recommend trying one out. When you digitize an image it opens up the door for a lot of other cool features such as recording, streaming, etc. The x sight has a myriad of features like ballistic calculators, WiFi, Bluetooth, and many more. For the price of the x sight nothing else comes close IMO. I wrote a short review I will find and post for you
I was looking at past 500yds so I do appreciate the information, don’t sound like it is for me.
Thank you
Yea I would say no chance you will see that far at night with any of the digital NV scopes, Gen 1 or prob even Gen 2. I’ve never tried anything better than that so couldn’t tell ya.
500 yards at night you're going to need very deep pockets.
I'd read around the nv forum here and see if you really need to see that far.
Possibly a thermal scope like the REAP may do that but that is super far for night vision. However if your hunting, you should be able to identify large game and hit the kill zone but forget about paper punching.
