The AGM Pack of 50 Passive Thermal Targets gives thermal optic shooters a dedicated zeroing solution that requires no batteries, no heat source, and no setup beyond mounting. Each target measures 15x15 cm with a 1 cm grid overlay for precise point-of-impact correction, and the pack ships 50 targets per order. The targets function equally well in daylight and complete darkness, in rain, fog, or dry conditions, making them a reliable zeroing standard across all environments where AGM and other thermal devices are deployed.

Who this is for

• Thermal rifle scope owners: anyone dialing in zero on a clip-on or standalone thermal optic who needs a repeatable, consistent aiming reference at any hour.
• Range operators and instructors: facilities running thermal zeroing lanes benefit from the bulk 50-count pack, keeping stations stocked without frequent reorders.
• Hunters and field shooters: those who hunt in low-light or pre-dawn conditions and need a target that works in the same thermal spectrum as their hunting optic.

How passive thermal contrast works

A passive thermal target needs no power source. Instead, it reflects the thermal energy of its surroundings to create a contrast image visible through any thermal device. The cooler sky temperature reflects off the target surface the way a mirror reflects light, so the target reads cold against the warmer background of trees, buildings, or berm material behind it.

Mount the target on a flat surface angled at least 10 degrees from vertical so the face reflects the colder sky downward into the optic's field of view. With a White-Hot palette the target appears black; with Black-Hot palette it appears white. Either way, the 1 cm grid lines remain legible through the thermal image for accurate elevation and windage correction.

Target features

Each target in the 50-count pack measures 15x15 cm and carries a 1 cm grid printed across the face. The grid spacing lets shooters calculate correction in precise 1 cm increments at a known distance, removing guesswork from point-of-impact adjustments. The material carries natural thermal contrast properties without coatings or additives that could degrade in weather, so performance stays consistent whether the target is new or has been stored in a range bag through multiple seasons.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

Do these targets require a battery or power source?

No. These are passive targets that work by reflecting ambient thermal energy from the sky. No battery, chemical heat pack, or external power source is needed at any point.

Will these work with my specific thermal optic brand?

Yes — passive thermal contrast targets are compatible with any thermal imaging device regardless of brand or format. The target creates contrast by reflecting sky temperature, so it appears in the thermal image whether you are using a monocular, clip-on, or dedicated thermal riflescope.

Do these work during the day, or only at night?

Both. The thermal contrast mechanism relies on the temperature differential between the cooler sky and the warmer ground-level background, which exists around the clock. Performance does not depend on visible light, so daytime and nighttime zeroing sessions produce the same result.

How should I mount the target for best results?

Attach the target to a flat surface angled at least 10 degrees from vertical. That angle positions the reflective face to capture the colder sky temperature rather than the warmer ground or your own body heat, maximizing the contrast your optic will display.

What does the target look like through White-Hot versus Black-Hot palettes?

With a White-Hot palette the passive target appears black. With Black-Hot palette it appears white. Both presentations keep the 1 cm grid legible for point-of-impact correction, so palette choice does not affect zeroing accuracy.

Can these be shipped outside the United States?

No. This product is not exportable outside the United States. By adding it to your cart you confirm you are located in the United States and have no intention to illegally export the device.
