    RICO 2 H50R

    Identifies a hog at 150 yd26° apparent FOV — how big the view looks

    The Nocpix RICO 2 H50R ranks #17 of 80 640-class scopes on image: class-typical image at a class-typical price — image scores bunch tight in this class, so what separates scopes is features and price, not sensor (image 75, class median 73; $3,989 against $3,994). The same InfiRay core sits in the Nocpix SLIM H35 at $2,499 — the extra $1,490 here buys the 50mm lens and the rangefinder. The 5-year warranty follows the scope through a resale.

    Pros
    • Built-in laser rangefinder
    • Identifies a hog to ~200 yd
    • 5-yr transferable warranty
    Cons
    • 40 mK — noisier in low light
    • Narrow 8.8° field of view
    • Short ~5 h battery
