6-24x50 APMR MIL

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.

Hands down, the best optic on the market for the price. The scope gathers great light in low light situations, holds zero perfectly, and with the turrets is a great option for those learning or experienced in long range shooting. Great warranty and customer service even though you will not need it. If you are in the market for reliability and quality, this is your optic.

It's not a Nightforce, Trijicon or SWFA & you shouldn't expect it to be. But, for the price??? It's optically excellent (there's a little noticeable aberration beyond 16x but it's perfectly usable. The subtensions hold true, it dials repeatability, even with abusive up/down dialing, then coming back to zero. I can't imagine it's going to hold perfect zero through bumps & knocks, but it's a <$250 scope. What do you expect?! My only complaint, well...... minor niggle, is that the side parallax adjustment has noticeable play. It turns maybe 1/20 of a rotation before it begins to adjust, which throws off the distance markings. It's almost a none issue in use, however. I have mine on a Tikka T1x & in my opinion, it's the best value scope you could put on a 70/30 target/hunting rimfire.

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 magnification Turrets have nice sharp audible clicks and the zero stop is a nice option to have I found Parallax to be accurate at different distances Has illuminated reticle but I don’t use this function Cons: 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.

This is my first athlon scope put on a 6mm Creedmoor I had built and couldn't find a affordable scope i liked till this the eye relief is great holds dead on and easy to zero in I'm fixing to buy my wife one for a 22-250 I'm having built for her and soon will buy a third for a winchester 300 h&h I just traded for excellent scope great price definitely woth the money

good scope for the price. glass surprisingly clear at distance. ive run it on a 308, 556 and 22. have not put through any hard use but it has held zero and tracks well.

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.

This is a fine scope for the money, lifetime warranty very well put together. You won't be disappointed!

Best scope I own! Can't say anything bad about it!

Very nice scope worth the money!
