Required scope ring diameter: 30mm.
The correct mounting arrangement depends on the rail or base fitted to your rifle.
- For compatible Picatinny or Weaver rails, select suitable 30mm Picatinny/Weaver rings.
- For compatible dovetail rails, select suitable 30mm dovetail rings.
- Choose a ring height that provides adequate clearance for the objective housing and rifle components.
- Check eye relief, mounting position and bolt clearance before completing installation.
The BOLT P25R does not require 34mm scope rings.
Mounting rings are not listed among the manufacturer's standard package accessories.

256 × 192 Thermal Sensor & ≤20mK Sensitivity
The BOLT P25R features a 256 × 192 VOx thermal detector with a 12μm pixel pitch.
Its ≤20mK NETD sensitivity allows the sensor to distinguish small temperature differences under specified test conditions.
This helps reveal thermal contrast between subjects and their surroundings, including when visible lighting is poor or absent.
The P25R has a lower native sensor resolution than the BOLT L35R and H50R. Those higher-resolution models can capture more fine thermal detail, particularly at longer distances.
The P25R nevertheless provides a practical entry into thermal imaging for customers who prioritise essential functionality and value.
25mm F1.0 Germanium Objective Lens
The P25R uses a 25mm germanium objective lens with an F1.0 aperture.
The objective collects thermal radiation and focuses it onto the sensor, allowing the scope to display differences in temperature.
Its smaller objective lens helps distinguish the P25R from the 35mm BOLT L35R and 50mm BOLT H50R.
The lens supports manual focusing for different viewing distances.
1,200m Thermal Detection Range
NocPix specifies a maximum detection distance of up to 1,200 metres for the BOLT P25R.
This is based on a reference target measuring approximately 1.7 × 0.5 metres under the manufacturer's stated test conditions.
Detection refers to recognising that a heat source is present. It does not mean the subject can be positively identified at the maximum detection distance.
Actual detection and identification performance depends on target size, temperature contrast, atmospheric conditions, humidity and distance.
3.5–14× Magnification & Field of View
The BOLT P25R provides a 3.5× base magnification and a maximum stated magnification of 14×.
Its angular field of view is 7.0° × 5.3°, equivalent to approximately 12.3 × 9.2 metres at 100 metres.
The magnification range allows users to adjust the apparent size of the thermal image according to their viewing requirements.
Increasing digital magnification narrows the visible area and does not increase the native resolution of the 256 × 192 sensor.
Integrated 1,200m Laser Rangefinder
The BOLT P25R incorporates a laser rangefinder with a manufacturer-stated measuring range of up to 1,200 metres.
This allows users to measure distance without needing a separate handheld rangefinder.
The rangefinder also provides distance information for the scope's built-in ballistic calculation functions.
Actual measuring performance depends on target reflectivity, weather conditions, viewing angle and distance.
The 1,200m LRF measuring range is separate from the scope's 1,200m stated thermal detection range.
Built-In Ballistic Calculation
The BOLT P25R includes ballistic calculation functionality designed to work with the integrated laser rangefinder.
When appropriate ballistic information has been entered, the scope can use measured distance to calculate an estimated aiming correction.
The feature is intended to provide additional information and does not replace correct zeroing, accurate ballistic data or verification.
1024 × 768 AMOLED Display
The BOLT P25R features a 1024 × 768 AMOLED display.
The display presents the processed thermal image, reticle, rangefinder information and on-screen settings.
It provides 50mm eye relief and dioptre adjustment from -5D to +5D.
The traditional eyepiece and scope-tube arrangement is designed to provide a familiar viewing experience for users accustomed to conventional riflescopes.
Thermal Colour Palettes & Picture-in-Picture
The BOLT P25R provides selectable thermal colour palettes, including white-hot and black-hot viewing options.
Additional colour modes allow the user to adjust the appearance of the thermal image according to viewing conditions and personal preference.
Picture-in-picture functionality displays a magnified portion of the image while retaining a wider view of the scene.
Image settings can be adjusted to balance contrast, detail and viewing comfort.
Dual Battery System & Operating Time
The BOLT P25R uses a dual-battery system consisting of an internal rechargeable 5,000mAh battery and a removable rechargeable 18650 battery.
The manufacturer's standard package includes two rechargeable 18650 batteries and a compatible charger.
This allows one removable battery to be fitted while a second is carried as a charged spare.
NocPix's international BOLT manual specifies a maximum operating time of up to 12 hours at approximately 22°C under its test conditions.
Actual runtime varies with ambient temperature, Wi-Fi usage, recording, display settings and rangefinder activity.
The USB Type-C connection supports compatible charging and external power functions.
32GB Storage, Recording & Wi-Fi
The BOLT P25R includes 32GB of internal storage for photographs and video recordings.
Recording features include standard video capture, audio recording through the built-in microphone and recoil-activated video recording.
Recoil-activated recording is designed to capture footage associated with a shot when correctly configured and enabled.
Wi-Fi connectivity supports compatible NocPix app functions and communication with supported mobile devices.
USB connectivity provides an interface for charging and supported data-transfer functions.
IP67 Protection & 6,000J Recoil Resistance
The BOLT P25R features a durable aluminium-alloy housing with IP67 dust and water protection.
It is specified for recoil resistance up to 6,000 joules.
The manufacturer's stated operating temperature range is -20°C to +50°C.
At approximately 870g with its removable battery fitted, the P25R offers a conventional riflescope format with integrated thermal imaging and rangefinding.
Correct installation, suitable mounting rings and routine maintenance remain important for reliable operation.
