Ares BTR APRS5 Riflescope | Athlon Optics Scopes

ARES BTR GEN2 HD

4.5-27x50 APRS5 FFP IR MIL

Built off the success of the 1st generation Ares BTR, the GEN2 is still a top-tier riflescope, without the price tag. The Ares BTR GEN2 acquires a new stainless steel turret design, just like the Midas TAC and Ares ETR lines. The new turret design features sharper, more tactile clicks. Still featuring HD glass, a new optical system provides an even brighter and clearer image throughout the magnification range. A one-piece, precision machined aircraft-grade aluminum aluminum scope body, precision zero stop, and impeccable tracking will deliver precise, accurate results in any field.

    I wish that there was a "very good" rating on the rating scale as I feel that this scope is better than "Good".

    I own both the Ares BTR Gen 2 as listed here and also the Cronus BTR 4.5-29 as well. I have the Cronus on my Vudoo that I shoot NRL22 / PRS Rimfire competition with and I think that it is a fantastic scope (best bang for the buck in that mid-upper echelon class of scopes). Due to my experience with the Cronus, I purchased the Ares to put on my new Volquartsen custom. I feel that it is perfectly suited to my expectations for that firearm and given my great experience with the Cronus, I have high expectations for the Ares.

    In my time thus far with the Ares, it is living up to my expectations. The turrets are very good and nearly as good as the Cronus (very tactile and audible with a good feel). The glass is better than the competitor's (brand that starts with a V) scope that I owned for a limited time which was at a similar price / specification point. Further, the general handling feels comparable to other, next tier, scopes that I've owned and handled. This experience reflects the same thing that I experienced with the Cronus, the Athlon offerings simply punch above their weight and you get a scope that is a tier better than the price indicates.

    I would certainly recommend this scope to a friend and in general I'm coming to expect great things from any Athlon product and thus would recommend the brand in general.
