Frequently Asked Questions
What magnification range does the IR-Hunter Type 3 60mm offer?
The IR-Hunter Type 3 60mm features a base optical magnification with digital zoom steps of 1×, 2×, 4×, and 8×, allowing you to scale your view from wide-area scanning to precise target identification at long range. The 60mm objective lens gives it a meaningful reach advantage over shorter-focal-length thermal scopes in the same lineup.
Is the IR-Hunter Type 3 compatible with standard rifle platforms and mounts?
Yes. The Trijicon IR-Hunter Type 3 60mm uses a standard 30mm main tube and is compatible with the vast majority of Picatinny and Weaver-style rings and mounts. It is suitable for use on AR-platform rifles, bolt-action hunting rifles, and other centerfire and rimfire platforms. Always verify recoil tolerance ratings for your specific caliber before mounting.
Can I use the IR-Hunter Type 3 for both hunting and observation without firing?
Absolutely. The scope's integrated DVR, wide field of view, and multiple palette options make it equally effective as a thermal spotter for scouting, animal observation, or property surveillance. When not mounted on a firearm, it can be used handheld or on a tripod (with appropriate adapter) for extended glassing sessions, and the USB-C external power support ensures you're never cut short during long observation periods.
