First introduced as the powerful combination of a thermal weapon sight and a thermal
clip-on unit, the HYBRID line-up continues to evolve with specialized models,
top-performing sensors, and an advanced feature set designed for technical shooters.
The combination of the HYBRID’s low-distortion orthoscopic eyepiece and a 1.03-inch
large-format 2560×1920 display provides comfortable viewing, a sharp image, and
massive eye relief. The HYBRID also unlocks advanced features such as compatibility with
a 1,000 yard laser rangefinder, a custom ballistic reticle generator, wireless remote, and an
onboard ballistic solver. This year, the HYBRID family expands with the addition of the 75
mm model (HYH75W), optimized for long-range shooters and the 50 mm 90 Hz model
(HYL50W), optimized for smooth motion and fast moving targets.
For finding coyotes, thermal usually wins. It shows body heat, so a coyote stands out against grass and brush on the darkest night without an IR illuminator. Night vision gives more natural detail but needs some light. The Hybrid's 384 sensor and 90Hz refresh rate keep a moving coyote smooth as you track it.
Yes. iRay, sold as InfiRay, is a Chinese thermal imaging company, and the RICO HYBRID is one of its riflescope lines. Warranty service on this scope goes through the manufacturer, and we help you reach them if something goes wrong. We ship to US addresses only.
In most states, no. Deer seasons generally limit hunting to daylight hours, while hogs and coyotes are where thermal night hunting is commonly allowed. Rules vary by state and species, so read your regulations first. The Hybrid's 90Hz refresh rate was tuned for fast moving targets like running hogs.
