It mounts in standard 30 mm rings but ships in a Nocpix one-piece mount. The mount is solid and fits as intended. I prefer my Bobro for repeatable return to zero, so I moved the ACE onto that mount. The Bobro barely clears the rail because of the big objective, but it does clear. It&#8217;s nice that the ACE comes with its own mount, and it&#8217;s ready to go out of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R Thermal Scope Included Mount\" class=\"wp-image-220171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4783.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S60R Thermal Scope Included Mount<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R Thermal Scope Included Mount\" class=\"wp-image-220172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4785.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S60R Thermal Scope Included Mount<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The controls are intuitive. The power button is at the rear, along with the LRF and Video Record buttons. The top button and rotary wheel operate menus and double as the digital zoom. I really like the button layout on this scope. The USB-C port is hidden under a twist collar. No rubber covers to lose. Diopter adjustment and a quick focus ring make it simple to get a sharp picture in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R Control Buttons \" class=\"wp-image-220161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4759.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S60R Control Buttons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-image-quality-and-what-matters-at-night\">Image Quality and What Matters At Night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ACE S60R uses a 1280 thermal sensor. Pair that sensor with a 60 mm F\/1.0 objective and a \u226415 mK NETD, 12 micron pixel pitch, and you get an image that resolves an insane amount of detail.  In the field that can make a big difference. I can read fur texture, see head angles, better identify species, and pick out facial detail on game at ranges where lesser units turn everything into blobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The display is a round AMOLED at 2560 x 2560 pixels. Shouldering the scope feels closer to a day scope experience than a periscope feed. That circular presentation places the reticle in a natural position when tracking moving targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I use black hot and white hot most of the time. Both are clean on this unit. The other palettes are functional. I rarely need them, but they can help in unusual backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-optical-magnification\">Optical Magnification<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ACE S60R has a native 2\u00d7 optical base magnification and a digital zoom to 24\u00d7. Additionally, it has a 1-3 power optical eyepiece magnifier that zooms in on the display and not on the pixels. It&#8217;s pretty unique and you kind of have to see it to understand it, but it works. The downside is that you&#8217;re magnifying the display, and on the 3x, you lose the ability to see some of the icons and information that the screen holds. While the optical zoom feature is really cool, I&#8217;ve used it less than I thought I would. That&#8217;s in part because the digital zoom is incredible. The picture is surprisingly good and entirely usable, zoomed all the way to 24x.

Tap the button on top of the eyepiece for a single reading. Hold it down for a second or two for continuous scanning. The LRF reads reflective objects and terrain features cleanly inside the distances most people will actually shoot at night. You pair the scope with the app, load your ballistics, and sync the profile. Enter BC, velocity, twist rate, sight height, and environmental data. The scope then computes a hold for the ranged distance and displays a second aiming point in the reticle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-power-system\">Power System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R USB-C Port\" class=\"wp-image-220156\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4752.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S60R USB-C Port<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The ACE uses an internal rechargeable cell plus a hot-swappable 18650. You can run the scope off the internal cell while swapping the external 18650. Twist the collar to reveal the USB-C port and plug in a battery pack if you need extended uptime. That triad of internal battery, hot swappable 18650, and USB-C charging removes a lot of battery drama from long nights.

Fire a shot and observe where it landed on the target. Freeze the frame with the reticle on the center aiming point. Move the zeroing reticle to the hole and save. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The menu system is one button and a wheel. Short press for quick adjustments to palette, brightness, and sharpness. Long-press for reticles, zero, calibration, ballistic settings, Wi-Fi, and the gallery. The interface is fast to navigate with gloves. The turret acts as the digital zoom when not scrolling through menus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app is available for Android and iPhone. I&#8217;ve only used the Android version, but it works well and I&#8217;ve had no issues with it. I use it to input my ballistics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R \" class=\"wp-image-220159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4758.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S60R<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-field-performance-and-effective-ranges\">Field Performance and Effective Ranges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nocpix rates detection at 3,400 yards. Realistic detection and identification depend on target size and atmosphere, but my experience is that it delivers on the 3400 yards in an impressive fashion. <br \/><br \/>Because of the 2x base magnification, you get a huge field of view when scanning, calling predators, or shooting fast-moving hogs on the move. The digital zoom gives you an incredibly good picture up to 8 or 10x and a completely usable picture to 24x.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R Thermal Scope \" class=\"wp-image-220173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4788.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Detection Range is going to depend on some environmental conditions, but I can see cows (white blobs) at two miles in the right conditions. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also use the picture-in-picture mode to keep the wide field of view but have a zoomed-in aiming point.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thermals essentially create a picture by generating a heat map or by showing the temperature differences. Really good sensors can detect smaller differences in heat, providing more detailed information. The sensor&#8217;s ability to resolve small differences in heat is measured in millikelvin. Just a few years ago, top-of-the-line thermals were bragging about \u226440 mK NETD. The ACE S60R has \u226415 mK NETD, which is phenomenal and is part of the reason you get such excellent performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, the startup time from when you push the power button until you have a reticle is only 10 seconds. I leave it off and scan with a handheld most nights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rangefinder has worked well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Nocpix Ace S 60R Thermal Scope Focus \" class=\"wp-image-220165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_4765.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nocpix Ace S 60R Thermal Scope Focus <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-improvements-i-would-accept\">Improvements I Would Accept<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For long-range small target work and predators, I would like a native higher magnification of 3x. That would let you maintain native resolving power deeper into magnification before relying on digital zoom. I understand that this would likely require a huge 75mm objective. I don&#8217;t feel like the optical zoom is as helpful on the ACE S60R eyepiece as it is on the  ACE 50R 640 version, and I&#8217;d prefer a more premium eyepiece, although there&#8217;s nothing wrong with this one. I&#8217;m just nitpicking because I really don&#8217;t have anything to complain about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-warranty-and-support\">Warranty and Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nocpix supports the ACE line with a robust warranty and U.S. service channels. Nocpix covers the ACE S60R with its 5\u00d75 Warranty. Every optic is protected for five years against defects from normal use. If service is ever required, Nocpix guarantees a turnaround of five business days or less. If the unit cannot be repaired within that time, it will be replaced with one in equal or better condition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bottom-line\">Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What sets the ACE S60R apart is how it actually looks and performs in the field. The 1280 sensor does not just add pixels on paper; it gives you fine details like hair, ear shape, and facial features that 640 scopes just can&#8217;t compete with. The 60 mm F\/0.9 lens pulls in enough signal to make that resolution matter, and the round 2560\u00d72560 AMOLED display shows it in a sight picture that feels like a true riflescope instead of a cropped video screen. When you add fast menus, recoil recording, and an integrated 1300-yard rangefinder that feeds a live ballistic hold into the reticle, you get a thermal that is not just top of the line in specs, but one that makes night shooting\/hunting practical, precise, fun, and worth missing some sleep for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
