Athlon Argos BTR
For those getting started in the Precision Rifle Series (PRS), the Argos BTR GEN2 scopes are worth considering. Packed with high-end features, these scopes offer a versatile 4x magnification suitable for various shooting disciplines. The Precision True Zero Stop and Advanced Fully-Multi Coated Optics deliver a crystal-clear image in low-light conditions. With an exclusive XPL coating, the lenses are protected from dirt, grease, and harsh weather, while the rugged aircraft-grade aluminum tube ensures durability in any environment. The first focal plane design allows for dynamic reticle scaling as you zoom, and the illuminated reticle enhances visibility in low light. With fully multicoated optics, these scopes provide brighter images by reducing reflections and increasing light transmission.
Burris Eliminator III
The Burris Eliminator III is a game-changer for hunters looking for precision and versatility at extended ranges. With its built-in laser rangefinder, this scope provides exact distance readings up to 1,200 yards, automatically adjusting the reticle for pinpoint accuracy. Whether you're stalking game in dense timber or aiming across open fields, the Eliminator III offers a perfect balance of magnification and ease of use. The scope's 4-16x magnification ensures that you’re ready for any scenario, whether up close or at distance. After using it in various conditions, I’ve found it to be a reliable, high-performance tool that takes the guesswork out of long-range shooting, making it a must-have for serious hunters.
