Hunt The Night

The DNT ThermNight TNC635R was my first scope of this kind and has opened up hunting opportunities that I never thought possible. The scope is easy to use and there are plenty of YouTube videos out there to walk you through the setup and configuration. Having both a thermal and day/night vision (DNV) scope in the one unit takes some getting use to. Sighting in the day scope is easy and the one shot zero works well. Understanding that the DNV scope sits approximately 10cm above the barrel and the thermal is underneath the DNV means the point of impact differs between the two at close range (under 30m or so). Not an issue as long as you take this into account. You also need to sight in the NV and thermal scopes separately as they are different systems. Sighting in the thermal scope is a pain, especially if you want accuracy at range, but this is the same for all thermal scopes. Once again there are many YouTube videos out there about how to best sight in a thermal scope. Thermal scopes on thermal targets, in general, will never give you the same precision as optical scopes sighted in on paper targets. This was frustrating as the rifle was accurate (well under MOA) but achieving such a group with the thermal was not possible. The DNV scope was much better (more pixels). I know I am being picky here but these are simply observations that I was unaware of before purchasing. This is a fantastic scope!

The laser range finder and ballistic calculator are excellent and I configured several profiles for the different loads I was shooting (65g VMAX for foxes and 80g TTSX for deer in a 6mm). Swapping between profiles and enabling the ballistic calculator for different loads worked really well and I was very impressed with the calculated hold-overs out to 250m. The ballistics were spot on. One thing to note is the LRF is centred on a floating square below and to the side of the centre of the reticle. The crosshairs do NOT define the reading in the LRF! On high magnifications the LRF square is actually off screen, not an issue if you understand this is the situation and zoom out a bit when ranging.

I have now been out hunting in the dark over 20 times since purchasing the scope in March 2026. It took time to fully understand all the functionality, including when and how to use what (PIP, thermal only, NV only, ballistic calculator, video). There were times of frustration (how do I turn on the night vision? why is the thermal defaulting to 1.5X when I change settings? why is the zoom no longer working?) but time in the field and patience resolved all the issues. This is an amazing scope and can do everything needed to successfully hunt in the dark. Remember this is a combination scope: thermal and digital night vision, and hence there is more to learn than buying a single purpose scope.

Would I purchase the same unit again? Absolutely! I wanted a scope I could use in the daytime (big tick) with a laser range finder and ballistic calculator (another big tick) and a thermal to identify targets in complete darkness (tick again). The night vision and built in IR torch gives you shiny eyes out to well over 250m and the thermal can pick up foxes at well over 700m. The TNC635R is an impressive piece of technology which I highly recommend to anyone looking for a high quality multispectral scope.

Mate what a ripper product 👍
The Hikmicro LH 35 2.0 it’s awsome ,it certainly is a very good hi quality monocular.

All the different settings and features are amazing.

I got more than I expected from the Hikmicro it truly is a beautiful piece of work.

Thank you guys for the great service and such a beauty of a thermal monocular.

I definitely will be telling people where to get great products at a very good price.👍

Great service

Good scope, very good value for the money. Would buy another.

Very accurate in my rifle, excellent knock down power especially at 300-400m. Does the work of a 180gr without losing any material.

The shop its good about the same as most good hunting stores. But now the staff ben and the crew down there they are the best people ever,the service they give even after a sale is top notch. I would highly recommend them to anybody who is considering buying a scope. I have never done this before I'd give them 10 out of 10 for service

Really good. Very uniform tight primer pockets.

Great product. Worked perfectly.

Great product love the protection case great service and fast delivery

I've had an origional Cadwell chrony & a Magspeed previously, also had a play with a mates C1... the Garmin Xero's are the best on the market.

i had a few problems not with the scope with understanding how to set it up. I found the staff at this store to be helpful and will go out of there way to help. i recommend them to anybody. i have never had a store give me such complete service and it is still ongoing great work ill buy again for sure
