Nocpix RICO 3 Pro H50R 640x512 3x 50mm LRF Thermal Scope

NOCPIX RICO 3 Pro H50R Thermal Weapon Sight

The NOCPIX RICO 3 Pro H50R is part of NOCPIX's next-generation RICO 3 thermal weapon sight family. NOCPIX describes the platform as an integrated smart thermal shooting system that builds on the RICO 2 with advanced ballistic integration, enhanced laser-rangefinder capability and extended battery life. This RICO3 PRO-H50R configuration combines a 640x512 thermal sensor, 50 mm F/1.0 objective, 3X base magnification and an integrated 1,600-yard laser rangefinder in a magnesium, IP67-rated housing.

For hunters and shooters comparing thermal optics, the RICO 3 platform brings ranging, ballistic calculation, imaging, recording and connectivity into one optic. Review the specifications below, confirm that the mounting and recoil ratings match the intended firearm, and add the NOCPIX RICO 3 Pro H50R to your cart at BattleHawk Armory when this model fits your needs.

Autofocus and Ocular Zoom 2.0

The RICO 3 Pro adds two defining technologies to the RICO platform. Its manufacturer-described industry-first autofocus system uses information from the upgraded 1,600-yard laser rangefinder to deliver a sharp thermal image at the press of a button. That workflow is designed to reduce the time spent manually adjusting focus when the observed distance changes. The enhanced rangefinder is also specified for faster readings and improved small-target detection, providing rapid distance information when conditions demand a prompt decision.

Ocular Zoom 2.0 combines physical and digital zoom to preserve useful visual clarity when the shooter needs a closer look at distant detail. The optic starts at 3X magnification and provides 2X optical plus 4X digital zoom. Together with the 50 mm F/1.0 objective, 640x512 sensor, Reality+ image processing and 60 Hz refresh rate, the Pro model is configured as the flagship option for users who prioritize advanced focusing and zoom control.

Integrated Rangefinding and Ballistic Support

An integrated laser rangefinder provides distance readings out to a listed 1,600 yards, while the onboard ballistic-calculation feature supports a more streamlined firing-solution workflow. The scope includes eight reticle types - seven static designs and one DIY option - plus multiple reticle colors for adapting the display to the selected thermal palette and background. Picture-in-picture mode can keep a magnified aiming area visible while preserving more of the surrounding scene.

Range and ballistic features are decision-support tools, not substitutes for positive target identification, a safe backstop or independently verified firearm and ammunition data. Enter and confirm the correct ballistic information, follow the current NOCPIX instructions and observe all applicable laws and safe-firearm practices.

Recording, Connectivity and Power

The RICO 3 can capture video and still images, and it supports recoil-activated recording. Built-in 64 GB storage provides space for saved media, while wireless connectivity allows image and video transfer through the compatible app. A USB-C connection handles data and power functions. The power system uses USB-C and two NBP-8 lithium-ion batteries, with a listed maximum operating time of 10 hours. Startup is specified at less than 10 seconds, with instant operation available from standby.

Actual runtime, image quality, detection performance and recording capacity can vary with temperature, settings, zoom, wireless use, battery condition, atmospheric conditions and the size of the observed heat source. The thermal images shown by the manufacturer are illustrative, and real-world results may differ.

Mounting, Construction and Environmental Specifications

• Mounting system: Picatinny MIL-STD-1913 rail
• Housing: Magnesium
• Ingress protection: IP67
• Operating temperature: -4?F to 122?F
• Maximum recoil rating: 1,000 g/s?, listed for .300 Win. Mag. and 7 mm Mag.
• Dimensions: 9.69 x 3.43 x 3.43 inches

Confirm rail space, eye position and fastener torque before use. After mounting, verify zero and inspect the installation regularly. The maximum recoil listing does not replace the firearm, mount or ammunition manufacturer's requirements. NOCPIX products are distributed and supported in the United States by iRayUSA.

How the RICO 3 Pro H50R Differs from the RICO 3 H50R

Both 50 mm models use a 640x512, 12-micron sensor, 3X base magnification, an 8.8? x 7.0? field of view and a listed 2,840-yard detection range. The Pro adds autofocus, the upgraded rangefinder behavior described by NOCPIX and Ocular Zoom 2.0. It is also larger and heavier at 9.69 inches long and 42.13 ounces, compared with the standard H50R at 9.2 inches and 32.77 ounces. Choose the Pro when its focusing and zoom technologies matter more than minimizing overall system weight.
