A 384×288 sensor behind a 25 mm lens

Sensor (12 µm pixels) and lens stated by AGM, NETD 20 mK (the figure we score). With our formula (focal length ÷ pixel pitch, 3 pixels on a 1.8 m target) that gives a computed reach of 1,250 m.

What a night out with it looks like

AGM calls the ReachIR its premium line of handheld LRF monoculars. The 25-384 version uses a 384×288, 12 µm VOx sensor at less than 20 mK and 50 Hz, a 25 mm F1.0 lens (2.5 to 20x), a 0.39-inch 1024×768 OLED at 50 fps and a 905 nm Class 1 laser rated to 1,000 m.

By our calculator, the 25 mm lens recognizes a coyote-sized animal at about 260 m (285 yd) and detects a person at about 1,875 m. AGM states 1,200 m for a 6 ft object. Hot tracking, picture-in-picture, four palettes and 64 GB of storage with audio round it out, in a magnesium housing that weighs 386 g without its cell.

In the box per AGM: two 18650 batteries, a charger, a power adapter, a USB-C cable, a hand strap and a bag.

The catch

Battery life. AGM's data sheet says up to 4.5 hours continuous at 25 °C, with Wi-Fi and the LRF off. Use the laser and Wi-Fi on a cold night and you will be on the second cell well before midnight. It ties for the shortest runtime in our list.

And a 384 sensor is a 384 sensor: at 300 yards, a 640 model shows more of the animal's outline before you range it. For many hunters that is fine; for long-range coyote calling, the Axion 2 LRF XG35 is the step up.

Great if…

  • you want a laser rangefinder without paying $3,000
  • you hunt within 300 yards and want to know the exact distance
  • you value a long, transferable warranty

Skip it if…

  • you sit all night and hate swapping batteries
  • you want a 640 sensor for detail at long range
  • you do not need distances: the Taipan V2 19-384 costs $700 less

Buying advice

The verdict

Want a laser rangefinder without paying $3,000? The AGM ReachIR LRF 25-384 is the one: a 384×288 sensor below 20 mK, a 25 mm F1.0 lens, a 1,000 m laser with ±1 m accuracy, IP67 and a 5-year warranty for $1,895. It scores 8.8/10 overall. The weak line is the battery: 4.5 hours per cell as AGM rates it, with the laser off.
