Possibly the best ban for the buck out there - Athlon Optics Helos BTR Gen II 6-24x56 34mm Tube Rifle Scope, FFP

Looking for a decent scope for my Bergara HMR, one that would not break the bank and would give me what I like. I had never considered Athlon before, but this scope piqued my interest. Being that I bought it for under $500, I decided to try it out. This scope does everything well. Is it as good as my Vortex Razor?, No, but I do not expect that for less than a third of the price. For the money, this may very well be the best value in optics out there. I was very impressed, to say the least. Overall, with the decent optical quality, good mechanical function, and very good price point, this optic is hard to beat. Only fault I found was a tiny bit of slop in the elevation turret, but that is getting very picky. Big question is will it hold up under pressure? Time will tell that. It does have the lifetime warranty, so I am not concerned. This is simply a feature rich scope that performs adequately in every respect. My hat off to the guys at Athlon. They did a great job putting together this optic.
