Pard Pantera 256 Mini Thermal Rifle Scope

Product Overview

The Pard Pantera 256 Mini Thermal Rifle Scope PA2M-25 is built for hunters who want real thermal performance without turning their rig into a boat anchor. A 25 mm objective, 3.6× base magnification and 500 g all-up weight keep the rifle balanced, while the 256×192 / 12 µm sensor and ≤15 mK NETD pull detail out of cold, damp Aussie nights where cheaper units just smear the image. The 50 Hz OLED display gives a smooth, clear sight picture that still feels like a traditional daytime optic when you shoulder the rifle. In the paddock it’s a simple, no-nonsense tool. Side focus from 5 m to infinity, intuitive controls and long 50 mm eye relief make it easy to run off the shoulder or from sticks, even with gloves on. Detection out to around 1200 m gives you plenty of warning on open country, while multiple colour palettes, onboard recording, Wi‑Fi app support and a built‑in ballistic calculator mean you can range, hold and send rounds with confidence. Rated to 6000 J recoil, IP67 sealed and powered by a removable 18650, the Pantera 256 Mini is a compact thermal that’s happy living full-time on a centrefire and working hard season after season.
