The Athlon Optics Argos 6-24 x 50 mm Rifle Scope has 60MOA of adjustment. If you are shooting beyond 600 yards I recommend using a 20 MOA base.

If you have a picatinny scope base on your Browning HellsCanyon then I recommend using the Vortex Pro Series Rifle Scope Rings at the link below. You will need the 30mm diameter medium height or high height model. The guide at the second link below will help you determine the correct height rings you need for your specific set up.

How good is the product better than vortex scope and leupold scopes

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on February 24, 2022

That is a hard question to answer since it depends on what aspects of a certain brand or optic people like. Athlon Optics make good products as well as Vortex and Leupold. It comes down to what specific features you are looking for in your rifle scope for its application and your budget. Here is a guide that might help you in selecting the right rifle scope for you.
