Gear Review: InfiRay Saim Series Thermal Scope
In this modern "Call of Duty" world, we often find ourselves walking away from the controller and into the game itself. This is evident once you pick up the InfiRay Saim Thermal Scope. The InfiRay Saims are the products of several thousand hours of research and development geared toward bringing a feature-packed digital optic to the consumer for a price that fits nearly every budget, particular for thermal hunting.
Fire It Up!
Once
you hit the power button, you are taken to the home screen. From here
you are ready to take a shot or navigate the menus for the various
features. Without sounding like a commercial, let me list some of the
features that you have at your disposal, and then we'll examine the most
intriguing of the batch:
Night vision
Digital still and video camera
WiFi
Compass
Zeroing
Centering Up
Zeroing
on this optic is different than what most shooters are used to. The
scope is zeroed through a process that involves firing a shot, and then
putting the reticle where it actually hit and holddown the menu button.
Of course, if your shot is off the paper, then you must start closer and
work your way back in small increments.

While
all of the aforementioned features are certainly attainable for the
price point at hand, the one that sets this optic apart is of course the
night vision. Night vision alone can exceed the cost of the
Saim35 series by four times, or more. InfiRay did an amazing job of making
it affordable, ensuring the image ultraclear, yet not cutting corners
in contrast or sharpness.
We
used the night vision feature to aid our ongoing struggle with pest
control. Among our zero profiles is a 15-yard zero for our Wolf Jager
.22 air rifle, transforming it into the ideal tool to control raccoons,
opossums or whatever lurks in the night around your trashcans. The Saim
35 will work well on any pre-charged pneumatic or CO2 air gun, just be
sure to stay away from spring piston powered systems.
Do the Job!
If
you are looking for an all-encompassing piece of equipment that has a
terrific price point, this is it. Consider one for your next thermal hunting, big game hunt or even just an everyday range session, as this
will fit the bill without breaking the bank.
