Athlon Optics Argos BTR GEN2 6-24X50 First Focal Plane Riflescopes with Sunshade Included

I have been a Nikon fan for years. Now that they have stopped manufacturing rifle scopes I have become a Burris fan and I have played around with Vortex. I have watched a number of reviews on this scope and thought it would be good to try. I am not disappointed. The clarity of this scope is good but not excellent, With it probably close to clarity of a Vortex crossfire. Definitely better than Bushnell banner or other similar scopes. The target knobs are very tactile with positive clicks. The adjustments are accurate with 10 clicks up and 10 clicks down returning to zero. Eye relief is good at about 3-1/2”. That is plenty for most rifles. Mine came with scope caps. That’s something that scopes twice the price don’t offer. The scope is definitely built for a bench rifle. It is solid and heavy. For the price I would recommend for sure. However, if your budget allows, there are certainly some better option for twice the price.

Like most people, I bought this scope for one of my rifles. I'm afraid that I need to go find a new rifle just for this scope though. It completely outclasses my gun unfortunately lol. I'm not complaining by any means.For the price of this optic you get a whole heck of a lot on this thing! The perks and features are endless... FFP, illuminated reticle, MOA or MIL options, parallax adjustment, BIG open turrets that are super easy to dial on, it's all there on this thing and it's not skimping on quality and durability in any way. This scope has $1k quality and it's well under $300, you just can't beat it imo. I've always been a Leupold and Vortex guy, this is my first Athlon, definitely will not be my last. One of the best bang-for-your-buck items I've ever bought. HIGHLY satisfied with this product in every aspect possible. Not a single disappointment found so far.

I’ve shot about 400 rounds so far out of my 30-06 and still holds true, battery dies a little fast but other than that I recommend it as a starter scope. Eye relief could be better though

First off, Seller did not pack the scope very well & scope arrived with dented shipping & dented scope box. Luckily there was no damage to the scope.I was able to mount and try out this Athlon scope recently. Here are my findings:Pros:Well built, well designed & accurate. Doesn’t look or feel cheap.Glass is bright & clear even at max magnificationTurrets have nice sharp audible clicks and the zero stop is a nice option to haveI found Parallax to be accurate at different distancesHas illuminated reticle but I don’t use this functionCons:Short Eye relief. I mounted this scope on a pic rail as far back as possible and eye relief was still short for me. Good thing I was able to adjust the LOP on my chassis to help alleviate this issue.Sadly, reticle is too thick (thicker than pictured imo). If you plan on shooting long distances (ie. >300 yards) at smaller targets above 18x magnification then this could be an issue since at higher magnifications, the reticle looks more like a SFP reticle.Overall, it’s a decent & solid scope for the price, but if you can deal with the cons then this scope might work for you.

I mounted this on my FX Impact M4 air rifle, .22 cal. This is certainly not a rifle with harsh recoil, but it is a rifle that demands an accurate scope with parallax adjustment that goes down to 10 yards. This does the job well.My target looks very large at 50 yards, and the image is sharp and clear. It is easy to zero as the point-of-impact offset is easily measured using the mil reticle. The adjustment turrets seem to adjust as specified... 1 mil on the reticle is 1 mil adjustment on the turrets.

Good scopes for the money. I have 65 scopes so I can say these are good to go. Tracks perfectly and the glass is just ok, but that should be expected for the price point. For a budget hunting or target rifle, you would be satisfied by all means. I have two of these and zero complaints.

Really good scope. It's on my Bergara B14 22lr.

For the price this thing is great. I took a vortex pst gen 2 off my rifle knowing how well it groups with a good scope and slapped this one on to compare. Shoots the same groups. Only downside is the field of view is significantly smaller than a better quality scope. Glass is clear. The reticle is good. I don’t like the center crosshair it’s way too large and if you’re trying to be precise like I am it might cover the whole target. At 1k yards the center cross covers a clay pigeon or soda can at 1k yards. I didn’t understand how to set up the turret at the range as I sighted one the rifle set the zero stop and went to dial for 1k and it only went to 8moa and stopped. I actually had to take off the turret and spin the black piece to the other side and reinstall the turret for me to be able to dial correctly. I didn’t read the manual so DONT take it out on the scope for my negligence lol. My howa 1500 6mm creedmoor with 20moa base I can dial up to 60moa of elevation and hold over the rest. Overall it’s a great budget scope for the price just don’t compare it to something more expensive. The zero stop is an awesome feature for the price it’s a true zero stop not the hard to set shims like old vortex scopes. The turret clicks are super tactical and crisp not soft and mushy like I thought they would be. I have a vortex diamondback tactical and although In terms of optical clarity I might lean towards the vortex scope but everything else this scope is twice as good as the vortex. I don’t think any scope on the market will compare to this scope at the price it is
