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.
Crimson Trace Brushline Pro
The Crimson Trace Brushline Pro 3-9x40 is crafted with the avid hunter in mind, delivering precision and durability in a lightweight package. With a CT Custom BDC Pro reticle, this scope offers a clear, non-illuminated view on a second focal plane, making it a reliable choice for mid-range engagements. Its spring-loaded zero-reset capped turrets allow for smooth adjustments, and the windage and elevation knobs are easily accessible without tools, a feature I found convenient during field testing. Built with anodized aluminum, the Brushline Pro is waterproof, shockproof, and nitrogen-purged to ensure clear optics in any weather. Weighing just 15 ounces, it’s a practical, rugged companion, fully backed by Crimson Trace’s lifetime warranty.
