Thomas Harrocks's Review of Athlon Optics Ares ETR GEN2 UHD 15-60x56mm 30mm Tube Rifle Scope, SFP

This came yesterday and I mounted on my CZ 457 MTR onto pic rail to the 11mm dovetail. If mounting slightly above the receiver I could have done better with a 15 MOA rail... but with a shim in the rear ring I was able to dial it up just fine. This is an amazing scope for the money. I was a little surprised by the illumination. This is a single dot in the middle. Actually worked well as my first shot were in dimmer lighting and that single dot really made it pop for visibility.
Took it to the range today and it was a great day for sighting and shooting. Sort of hot but no mirage.. so cant comment how it will do at high power with mirage coming off the range gravel. In any case this is areal blessing for these old eyes. Improved over my old 25X Vortex Strike Eagle. Mounted on the .22 it wont be subject to the high power recoil so cant comment on that.

Overall I am quite pleased with this scope.
