New Anthlon 3-9x 40 Scope

[gbmarcht]

Just bought and mounted one to an older Dianna spring gun to give to my son. Shot a few rounds to sight it in an holy sh*t, this is as good as my Hawkws. Just bought a Hawke aimax for mt new TX200 and now wonder if I could have saved because nothing cheap about this scope. Will see how it lasts but so far for the price this is a real winner. Anyone else with positive or otherwise opinion ?

Very wrong about Athlon Scope, Because I got one for $160 on Amazon 3-0 x 40, assumed it was a cheap scope, not the case at all all! Not sure has etched retical like my Hawkes but so far really impressive w/ parallax correction, easy focus, and easy power adjustment. My mistake, this is not a cheap scope by any means

If you like Athlon scope Midway might still have some of the older Talos BTRs 30mm tube first focal plane, illuminated, nice reticle for $200 free shipping. China scope but pretty nice. 4x14 44mm. Focus down to 10 yards. Checked, they still have them.

Thanks guys, that's why I never claim to know everything and never afraid to ask questions. That's why i love this site, mostly good people even to a NE guy like me that just loves target shooting. Thanks so much guys!

Your welcome. I got one of the Talos BTRs from Midway. Think they were $330 or so before the 2.0s came out. Think it will go well with the close out rifle I got. Looking at the scope I bet it’s made in the same factory as the Primary Arms scopes, just made to different specifications. If you buy one you can add something that doesn’t come w free shipping for not much shipping cost. I added three 100 packs of .22 lr ammo go $2 shipping.

Been shooting a 3-12 x 40 AO Athlon Talos on my HW95 for a couple weeks and very happy with it. Good glass, ranging is accurate, holds zero. Dan25 thanks for the tip on that scope. NeedEd replacement for another springer. SF, FFP, and IR is crazy at that price. One on the way. Lifetime warranty on the scopes is a plus too.

Athlon "GOLD" warranty is a no questions asked deal! GREAT company and GREAT series of scopes. Got 3!

Mines been fine. I've also had to send one back and about the only question asked was return address..lol. I did give a rundown of the issue and pictures , turnaround was pretty good not months waiting .. shipping time to them , time to fix ot or replace, and shipping time back. Not bad at all.
