The Pixfra Pegasus Pro 2 LRF — A Serious Thermal Riflescope That Ranges Its Own Targets
The Pixfra Pegasus Pro 2 LRF is the thermal riflescope for the hunter who wants the lot — a genuine, high-performance thermal sight with a built-in 1,000m laser rangefinder and onboard ballistic calculation, in a familiar 30mm tube that mounts in any standard rings.
Range the animal, let the scope work the firing solution, and place the shot — all without lowering the rifle or reaching for a separate rangefinder. With thermal detection out to 2,600m, a sharp 15mK sensor and Pixfra’s PIPS 3.0 image engine, the Pegasus Pro 2 turns heat into hits at distances that leave a spotlight and a guess far behind.
Choose from four configurations — 384 or 640 sensor, 35mm or 50mm lens, with the laser rangefinder fitted as an on-top module or, on the flagship, fully built into the scope body. Every one is rated IP67, recoil-hardened, and runs a dual-battery system good for a full night out.
Pixfra is part of the Dahua group — one of the world’s largest imaging manufacturers — and the Pegasus Pro 2 is supported in Australia by C.R. Kennedy, with Gun Bar a Pixfra Pro Stockist. A 3-year warranty, genuine local backing, and serious thermal value. In stock now and ready for immediate dispatch, from $2,890.

The Thermal Riflescope For Hunters Who Want No Excuses
Find it, range it, hold the right number, send it — in one optic.
Plenty of thermal scopes will show you a warm animal in the dark. The Pegasus Pro 2 LRF does more — it tells you exactly how far away that animal is, and helps you put the shot where it counts. It is a thermal sight built for hunters who treat the dark as no excuse for a missed or marginal shot.
The headline is the integrated laser rangefinder. A built-in laser reads the distance to your target out to 1,000m, and the onboard ballistic calculation turns that range into a hold you can trust. No separate rangefinder, no guesswork on a long shot across a paddock at night — the information you need is right there in the scope.
Underneath, this is a serious thermal optic: a 15mK sensor that reads the faintest heat through fog, rain and scrub, Pixfra’s PIPS 3.0 image processing for a clean high-contrast picture, thermal detection out to 2,600m, and a 0.5″ OLED display that does the sensor justice. Six colour palettes, picture-in-picture zoom, hotspot tracking and recoil-activated recording round out a genuinely complete feature set.
And it is built like a tool that earns its keep — a full-metal body, an IP67 weather seal, a 1,000g shock rating and a dual-battery power system that will see out the longest night. This is the thermal scope you reach for when the shot has to count.
A thermal scope finds the animal. The Pegasus Pro 2 LRF finds it, ranges it, and helps you make the shot — all in one optic.
A 30mm Tube That Fits Like A Real Riflescope
No proprietary mount, no adaptor, no fuss — it mounts the way a riflescope should.
One of the quiet frustrations of thermal is mounting. Many thermal optics use a boxy, non-standard body that needs a proprietary mount or an adaptor — another part to source, another point of failure, another thing that holds your zero hostage.
The Pegasus Pro 2 sidesteps all of that. It is built around a conventional 30mm main tube — the same format as a traditional rifle scope. That means it drops straight into any quality set of standard 30mm rings or a 30mm mount you already know and trust. No Pixfra-only hardware, no compromise.
For a hunter that is a real advantage. You can mount it with the rings you prefer, set your eye relief and height exactly where you like them, and move it between rifles as easily as any conventional scope. It sits low and natural over the bore, handles like a normal optic, and looks the part on a serious rifle.
It is a small detail with a big payoff: the Pegasus Pro 2 feels familiar from the moment you fit it — a thermal riflescope that behaves like a riflescope.
A standard 30mm tube means the Pegasus Pro 2 mounts in rings you already trust — thermal capability, conventional fit.
The Integrated 1,000m Laser Rangefinder
Distance is the variable that ruins night shots. The Pegasus Pro 2 removes the guess.
In the dark, distance is the hardest thing to judge. Without a reference, a fox at 180m and a fox at 320m can look much the same through a scope — and that misjudged range is where clean shots turn into misses or, worse, wounded animals.
The Pegasus Pro 2 LRF takes the guess away. A built-in laser rangefinder reads the precise distance to your target out to 1,000m, displayed right there in the scope. Range an animal in an instant, without lowering the rifle or fumbling for a handheld unit in the dark.
Better still, the Pegasus Pro 2 puts that range to work. Onboard ballistic calculation takes the measured distance and helps resolve it into an aiming solution — so you are not doing mental maths over a heartbeat, you are holding a number the scope has worked out for you.
On the P335, P635 and P650 the rangefinder is fitted as a tidy on-top module. The flagship P650-ILRF takes it a step further, with the laser rangefinder built fully into the scope body — the cleanest, most integrated profile in the range, with nothing extra sitting proud of the tube.
Range to 1,000m, a firing solution worked out for you, and the shot taken — without ever lowering the rifle.
New To Thermal? Here’s How It Works — And What The Numbers Mean
If thermal is new to you, this is the section to read.
A thermal riflescope does not amplify light the way traditional night vision does — it detects heat. Every living animal radiates infrared heat, and the Pegasus Pro 2’s thermal sensor turns that heat into a clear on-screen image. That is why thermal works in total darkness: it is not using light at all, so there is nothing for the conditions to take away.
A warm-bodied pig, fox or deer lights up brightly against a cooler background — even bedded in shadow, standing in long grass, or screened by light scrub that would hide it completely from the naked eye. Thermal cuts straight through the camouflage game relies on, and it works by day as well as by night.
When you compare thermal scopes, a few numbers do most of the talking. Sensor resolution — 384×288 or 640×512 — sets how much detail you see; a 640 sensor resolves a clearer, more identifiable shape at distance. NETD, measured in millikelvin (mK), is thermal sensitivity — and here a lower number is better, because it means the sensor detects finer temperature differences and holds the picture together in rain, fog and humidity. The Pegasus Pro 2 runs a keen 15mK. And the lens — a 35mm or 50mm objective — sets your reach: the 50mm models detect heat out to 2,600m.
Learn to read those few numbers and you can compare any thermal scope on the market honestly — and that is where the Pegasus Pro 2 makes its case, delivering premium-grade sensor figures at a price well below the names that built the category.
Thermal shows you animals you would never have known were there. The Pegasus Pro 2 then tells you how far away they are.

The Pegasus Pro 2 LRF Against The Big Names
Thermal is an expensive category, and the established brands price like it. Here is how each Pegasus Pro 2 LRF stacks up against the closest models from HikMicro, Nocpix and Pulsar — on the specs that matter, and on price.
It’s 1 a.m. And There’s Heat In The Paddock — What Happens Next Is Why You Buy The Pegasus
Picture the moment. It is gone midnight, the dew is down, and a wash of heat lifts out of the black at the far end of the paddock. Pig, by the shape of it. Your scope has done its first job — it found the animal where your naked eye never could. Now comes the question every thermal scope puts to you, and the one that decides whether this ends in a clean shot or a long walk after a wounded animal: how far away is it?
This is the fork in the road. With a HikMicro Stellar in that price bracket — the SH35 — you are now guessing. It is a capable sensor and a respected name, no argument there. But at $3,499 it hands you no way to measure that distance. You hold over by feel, you trust your gut, and you hope. To buy a HikMicro Stellar that actually ranges the target for you, you are reaching for the SQ35L LRF — and that is $5,799. The honest truth of the Stellar line is that ranging is a feature you pay dearly for, or go without.
Now run the same midnight through a Pegasus Pro 2 LRF. You settle the reticle on the pig and touch the rangefinder. 214 metres. Not a guess — a number, lit up inside the scope, with the onboard ballistic calculation already turning it into a hold. You did not lower the rifle. You did not fumble for a handheld unit in the cold. The single hardest variable in night shooting just became the easiest, because a 1,000m laser rangefinder is built into every Pegasus Pro 2 — including the one that costs $2,890.
And the picture you are ranging through is sharper, too. The Pegasus reads at ≤15 mK thermal sensitivity against the Stellar’s ≤20 mK — roughly 25% finer detail. When fog rolls down the gully or drizzle hazes the air, that is the margin between a crisp, confident sight picture and a soft, noisy one. The Pegasus holds the animal together when the conditions are trying to take it away from you.
The Match-Up, Side By Side
| Sensor / Lens Class | Pixfra Pegasus Pro 2 LRF | HikMicro Stellar | You Save |
|---|---|---|---|
| 384 × 28835 mm Lens | P335-LRF≤15 mK · 1,000m LRF$2,890 | Stellar SH35≤20 mK · No LRF$3,499 | $609Cheaper — Plus A Rangefinder |
| 640 × 51235 mm Lens | P635-LRF≤15 mK · 1,000m LRF$3,890 | Stellar SQ35L LRF≤20 mK · LRF Built-In$5,799 | $1,909Cheaper — Same Sensor & Ranging |

So here is where the journey ends. You are walking back to the ute, pig down, one clean shot, the recording already saved to the scope for the group chat in the morning. You did that with a finer sensor, a rangefinder that came as standard, and somewhere between $600 and $2,000 still in your account — backed by genuine C.R. Kennedy warranty support here in Australia. HikMicro makes a good scope. The Pegasus Pro 2 just makes the better night.

This Is The Fair Fight — And The Pegasus Pro 2 Wins It Anyway
Let us not sell you short. If you have been shopping thermal seriously, you have looked at Nocpix — and you should have. The Ace series is genuinely sharp kit and it has built a following fast, for good reason. So this is the fair fight, the one where the other scope turns up with real numbers. And it is exactly the fight worth having, because the Pegasus Pro 2 wins the parts that land on you — the picture in your eye and the dollars in your hand.
Begin with the sensor, because that is where Nocpix is closest. The Ace runs ≤18 mK; the Pegasus Pro 2 runs ≤15 mK. Tighter than the gap to HikMicro, yes — but it still falls the Pixfra’s way. When the night turns marginal and the heat signature gets faint, the finer sensor is the one still drawing a clean edge around the animal. Close on paper; decisive in the scrub.
Now the moment that should stop you. Walk up to the Nocpix Ace L35 — a 384-sensor scope — and you will find a $3,999 price tag and no rangefinder anywhere on it. Four thousand dollars, and you are still ranging that fox on the fence-line by eye. Step across to the Pegasus Pro 2 P335-LRF and you get the same 384×288 / 35mm format, a finer ≤15 mK sensor, and a 1,000m laser rangefinder feeding ballistic calculation — for $2,890. That is $1,109 less for more scope.
It holds at the top of the range, too. The Nocpix Ace H50R is a serious unit — 640 sensor, 50mm lens, 2,600m detection, rangefinder on board — and it is priced like one at $6,699. The Pegasus Pro 2 P650-ILRF answers every one of those numbers — 640×512, 50mm, 2,600m, with the rangefinder built fully into the body — and it does it for $4,990. Same capability, $1,709 difference.
The Match-Up, Side By Side
| Sensor / Lens Class | Pixfra Pegasus Pro 2 LRF | Nocpix Ace | You Save |
|---|---|---|---|
| 384 × 28835 mm Lens | P335-LRF≤15 mK · 1,000m LRF$2,890 | Ace L35≤18 mK · No LRF$3,999 | $1,109Cheaper — Plus A Rangefinder |
| 640 × 51250 mm Lens | P650-ILRF≤15 mK · 2,600m · Internal LRF$4,990 | Ace H50R≤18 mK · 2,600m · LRF$6,699 | $1,709Cheaper — Same Capability |
So here is the resolution. Nocpix is good gear — anyone at Gun Bar will tell you so to your face. But you do not buy a name; you buy a result. The Pegasus Pro 2 meets the Ace on sensor performance, out-features it where the entry Nocpix has no rangefinder at all, and lands every configuration well over a thousand dollars cheaper — with local C.R. Kennedy backing behind it. Same animal, same darkness, same clean shot. One of them just leaves enough in the kitty for a season’s worth of ammo.
