New scope same gun - Athlon Optics Ares ETR UHD 4.5-30x56mm APRS1 Rifle Scope

I purchased this scope for my 457 Varmint. I shot it with another scope and decided to try the Athlon. All I can say is its the same gun with a new scope shooting the same ammo with the same shooter but the groups are tighter. The reticle is clear and concise but I do have to zoom a little higher but that's my eyesight, not the scope. The view is clear all the way to the edge of the glass. Its Chinese glass but is as good as any Japanese glass I own. The scope adjusts and returns to 0 perfectly. Keep in mind that there are no lens covers, shade tube, or Throw lever. They do not even offer a throw lever but are available in aftermarket. Between lens covers, Shade tube, and throw lever you are looking at another 2 skins.
Pros:
good scope
Quality built
does what it should
Cons:
no lens covers
no throw lever
No sun shade tube
All add ons expensive
Best Used for:
Bench
PRS & Extreme Long Range Shooting
Would Recommend:
Yes
