The virtual dimensions of both framed and unframed SU(2) magnetic monopoles on asymptotically conic 3-manifolds are obtained by computing the index of a Fredholm extension of the associated deformation complex. The unframed dimension coincides with the one obtained by Braam for conformally compact 3-manifolds. The computation follows from the application of a Callias-type index theorem.
