Pulsar’s elite Thermion XG50 has been voted as NRA’s American Rifleman’s 2021 Optic of the Year! The ‘Golden Bullseye’ awards are given annually, and, according to their website,
“To qualify for a NRA Golden Bullseye Award, products must be reliable, innovative in design and function, and perceived as a value to the purchaser. Winners of a Golden Bullseye Award are selected by a seven-member committee of NRA Publications staff members with more than a century of collective experience in the shooting and hunting industry.”
