Bruce,
Have you personally compared weight of c50 against sightline n470s? I'd be more interested in your real world say than what the "official" weights are...!

Just put one on one of my rifles Ben. Looks good so far but heavy. It was as heavy as my drone I would think. Will do a proper test and see what it's like

Cheers Ed
I've a c50 on my rifle. It is no different to carrying a rifle with a day scope a few hundred grams here or there is negligible. The c50 is an awesome scope and I've had or have pretty much everything that's been out over the last decade
Mines on its way. I just wanted some more information so I didn’t buy the wrong nv.
I’ve had a few different ones.
For rabbits on my rimfire I find the photon xt hard to beat for the money.
But on the .243 I wanted a scope to cover deer and fox. I hate add on nv so I had to wait until I got the right bit of kit

I'm certainly in market for a new dedicated nv scope but think I'm leaning more towards new pard 008 purely as it weighs 400 something grams.
And it’s point and shoot with it’s ballistic correction

The specs say the same for both - 1.15Kg
It's a while since I used a Sightline N470S, but the C50 is a heavy lump of a scope - although no heavier than some glass scopes.
If weight is the deciding factor, then get a PARD 008 - better than a Wraith HD and lighter.
Cheers

Swapped a pard 008 for the c50. The type of shooting I do I am hoping the wider field of view on c50 will help

It really will mate
Is the C50 image really much better at last knockings than a Wraith HD?
I cannot say as I have had nothing to do with a C50 yet, but find it hard to believe it can be much of an improvement in reality, a Wraith HD really is a tremendous colour low light performer.
Got to remember, Sightmark, Pard and ATN were all doing colour low light performers (around 2 and a half years) before Pulsar finally caught up.
From memory, I think the specs on the C50 sensor size were only what you would class as HD not 4k, I will go away and check this as cannot say for certain.
Just checked,
C50 Sensor 1928x1088
Screen 1024x768
Wraith HD sensor 1920x1080
Screen 1280x720.
Would not surprise me if the sensor was the same one tbh.

Yeah, reckon that's the way to go.
Once bitten twice shy all that, if c50 is same weight as the n470s then, for me, that's too much extra weight to be lumping about.

Extended mount comes included with wraith ultra. And with so many places doing jubilee discount that's £539.
I spotted that Benny boy, the mount I put in the total is for the HD Wraith (which still does not include the reach back mount
).Are we really becoming a Nation of wimps wittering on about the weight of a C50??? On my rifle I don't really notice the difference from my S&B Precision Hunter.
I'm 62, been through the mill with Cancer & numerous operations and still tramp around with a heavy outfit, all be it on lowlands. This isn't willy waving or a "Redneck" attitude, I just sometimes despair. Whinge/rant over.
