Silencerco Radius will solve that problem. Now you will know that they are not monster hogs (@1400yds) due to knowing distance, but cattle. Same thing has happened to me as well. Cattle laying down with calf's running around and some slope to the ground, looks like hogs moving around. But after several hundred yards of walking you see the legs and can tell they are not hogs. This is using a MKIII 60mm, so any thermal with less optical power or clarity will have even more trouble at ID without a knowing the range to target.
I don't have much time behind the radius as I just bought one, but so far it has been working great. I set it up parallel to thermal sight and just push the button to readout the yardage. It has an auto mode that constantly ranges but uses up the batteries in around 8 hrs. Display can be set from very bright to very dim. The dim setting works well on very dark nights.

I can see how that would be advantageous but how does it affect the weigh of the rifle and how cumbersome is it to carry?

It's a beast, built like a tank with the weight of a tank. Just over a 1lb, but for shooting off a tripod I have no issues with the weight. But like all gear each has to decide if the weight is worth the need. Saves a lot of walking for me when I know the range and can size up critters.
