Quick Answer
Hunters often prefer the Trijicon Accupoint or the Trijicon VCOG for hog hunting due to their durability and high magnification capabilities, particularly in low-light conditions. The Accupoint's 4x or 6x magnification and the VCOG's 1-8x or 1-6x options provide the necessary zoom for effective hog hunting.
Thermal Scopes for Hog Hunting
When it comes to hog hunting, thermal scopes can be a game-changer. Thermal imaging allows hunters to spot hogs in the dark, even in areas with thick vegetation. For hog hunting, a 320x240 or 384x288 thermal sensor is sufficient for spotting hogs from a distance. The Trijicon Accupoint can be paired with a thermal scope like the FLIR Lepton 3 or the ATN ThOR-HD thermal scope for an effective combination.
Choosing the Right Trijicon Model
The Trijicon Accupoint is a popular choice for hog hunting due to its ruggedness and ability to hold zero even in harsh environments. The Accupoint’s 4x or 6x magnification is ideal for hog hunting, allowing hunters to spot and engage hogs at distances of 200-400 yards. The Trijicon VCOG (Variable Power Combat Optic) is another excellent option, offering 1-8x or 1-6x magnification. This allows hunters to quickly switch between low and high magnification, making it ideal for close-quarters hog hunting.
