Best scope that’s 10 yards to infinity and illuminated.

I will soon (hopefully haha) be trying out the element nexus as well as it will be my next scope purchase. But I have to admit I have no complaints about my Atholon Helos BTR FFP with the illuminated reticle. so far it has been very nice for hunting for me thus far. Both short and long range I have been very pleased for the money. I did not like my Aztec em though because the cross-hairs were very hard to pick up in the tree tops and brush without illumination . I let that one go lol. 

Like I said I am going to give the element nexus a try as well. It really looks to be very promising thus far. 

Scott .

Athlon ares btr gen2. 2.5-15x50

U.S. Optics TS-20X 2.5-20x50

The new Sightron S-Tac goes down to 10 and is also illuminated. Never tried it but trust the brand. Not sure of the price, but I have to imagine it will land in your range. 

March 3-24x42 fits your requirements and would be very close to your price range, but definitely right at the top. The 52 obj model is better, but probably won’t fall in the price range.

All that said... Try the Nexus and tell us about it!!

lol I agree haha

I really like my Hawke Sidewinder FFPs and they have all of the specs you mention.

Good luck!

I love the crisp turrets of the Midas. I had an Aztec emerald and it was a little mushy. I have an ARGOS and the turrets are good but not as good as the Midas. Glass is not as clear as well. Good zero stop needed. Stainless turrets and a non capped windage turret preferred. I prefer a reticle with a dot in the middle instead of a + as well.

Yup it sounds like a nexus with the mil reticle (dot ) for you lol. I will go moa and take the plus reticle for hunting lol. I think we will both be pleased from the looks of it . I can't wait haha.

I think nexus is too expensive (understand you tubers and advertising is expensive but is new brand and so far we can only believe this scope is good like Joe says only trust his opinion coz rest guys are fx boys)

Wow, geez, you’re describing a March scope to a T. I cried once and bought a March FX 5-40 in moa. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Look up my post on it. The illumination is stellar, it’s got the easiest zero stop in the industry. My advice, save a bit more and go for a used March. You’ll probably have to scan the powder burner forums to find one but it’s worth it. MMahoney on here is selling one like mine right now over there. I’m selling three of my other scopes to offset it a little. I’ll be using the March on all my rifles, air & powder.

Go to $2000 and get the NF NX8 -4-32 FFP, smaller and lighter than the ATACR but personally I cant tell the difference optically and I have 2 of each! it ticks all the boxes, PX, ILLUM, FFP, etc. etc.

I really like the NF NX8 4-32x. I bought it when Brownells had a 10% off and free shipping which brought the price down below $2000. Focus 10 yds to Infinity...

I like it so much I bought a second one.

Any March scope or the Nightforce NX8 series meet your qualifiations and both can legitimately argue to be the BEST 10yd to infinity and illuminated scope. I'm a March fan myself...

Delta stryker - think it;s spelled . cyclops did a video on it. a must see. it goes down to 25 yards . another is the eotech vudu which goes down to 15 yards. both are HD glass and both around 1600 bucks.
