Most Helpful Positive Review Good mid priced scope
I bought this scope hoping is would be good enough to not force me to exchange it for one costing 2 to 3 times as much. It rated five stars FOR THIS PRICE POINT. Nice features like 2 1/4 inch rotate to extend eyepiece, big, body mounted focus ring, and rotation adjustment. Like most zoom lenses a...

Most Helpful Negative Review Poor focus
I have an early Vortex spotting scope which is pretty sad in in clarity and focus. I hoped to upgrade a little bit with this Argos. I don’t know if the one I got is representative of the whole model, but it was disappointing to say the least. The focus and clarity at distance were poor. I returned i...

Sportsman review

by Winford, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on March 29, 2025
This spotting scope works great and like other Athalon products is an exellent value at the mid price range. Now unboxing and getting the new as delivered from the factory scope? No days, this was an unchecked return, smudge lenses, no manual, missing scope covers. Shame no one there can do QC on returns. The condition received explains the price. Excellent product but blind to quality vendor.

conflicted on this purchase

by Todd, Verified Owner from MN, United States Written on August 1, 2024
It's a good quality spotting scope but no bipod and the case looks like they couldn't decide if they wanted it made for the straight or angled version. Thought with a 85mm lense it would be easy to see at full zoom but you still have the sides closing in on you unless you are looking perfectly through which makes it harder to find your target after taking your eye off.
It is very clear at lower levels but 22 size holes 200 yards or more are harder to see. Kind of wish I went with a better quality scope but would need to spend twice the money at least. So in short ok for the price but if you have the money pay more and get more.
Pros:
  • Price features
Cons:
  • Heavy
  • no bipod
  • bad fit case
Best Used for:
  • get a bipod for target spotting

5.56 groups at 200yds

by bmen, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on October 3, 2023
Just wanted a spotting scope to see 5.56 groupings at 200yds, don't think it could see holes much further than that. Glass starts to get fuzzy and deteriorate past 40x. Understood you get what you pay for; got this for a bit over $300 so i would say this was a great buy.

Excellent Spotting scope for the money

by Clabor21, from MA, United States Written on November 24, 2021
Very good visualization at 300 yards and a lifetime warranty to boot. Love this product. It is durable and it mounts well on typically available tripods and balance/stability is excellent. Focus is crisp. It comes with a very convenient carry case
Best Used for:
  • Medium range rifle shooting

Athlon spotting scope

by Barry, from CA, United States Written on March 21, 2021
I purchased this scope for an upcoming Mule Deer/Antelope hunt in Wyoming. I have been using this scope behind my house glassing the mountain hiking trail at 1 1/2 miles. This scope is clear and a great value for the price!

by William, from CA, United States Written on February 24, 2021

  • None
Best Used for:
  • long range target shooting

Bang for your Buck

by tcampbe6, Verified Owner from CO, United States Written on October 13, 2020
You can’t beat this spotting scope for the price point. Feels solid and not that noticeable of a difference from Vortex Razor at 4 times the cost. If you need a scope to last you a couple hunts a season, look no further!
