Description
Whether you are shooting prairie dogs at 700+ yards or you are shooting 3 gun that replicates life and death scenarios you want a rifle scope that is accurate, tough, durable and extremely versatile. You need a scope with the Midas touch, it makes every shot gold. The Athlon Midas BTR is ready for anything. It is also is equipped with our advanced multi-coating so you’ll have the brightest, clearest long-distance image possible, in any situation. The innovative new XPL coated lenses gives you “Xtra Protective Lens” coating that protects you lenses from moisture, oil, dirt and smudges. The super-fast side parallax focus makes certain you have the clearest image in the world when it matters most. The ultra-strong one-piece tube is hammer-forged from an aircraft aluminum alloy for more strength than standard aluminum, multi-piece scope tubes. The 6x magnification ratio eliminates the needs for multiple scope for different game or types of hunting. No need for multiple scopes for multiple types of game animals.
This Midas BTR 1-6×24 Model has ATSR16 second focal plane illuminated MIL reticle in it. Please click the link or download the reticle instruction manual in Specification for more details…

Features
| HD Glass | HD Glass gives you better light transmission, brighter, and sharper image. |
| Illuminated Reticle | The illuminated reticle provides greater visibility during dusk and dawn and other low ambient light environment. |
| Etched Glass Reticle | Reticle etched on the glass that provides excellent backing support for complex reticle design and offers great durability and much higher shock resistance to recoil |
| Advanced Fully Multicoated | Fully Multicoated optics effectively reduces reflected light and increases the transmission of light giving you a brighter image than normal single coated lenses |
| XPL Coating | XPL Coating gives you an extra protection on the exterior lenses from dirt, oil and scratches or anything else mother nature can throw at you. |
| High Precision Erector System | The high precision erector system processed by high precision CNC machine with +/- 0.0001mm tolerance level to provide you the most accurate power settings and smoothest magnification change |
| 6061 T6 Aluminum | The 6061T6 aircraft grade aluminum tube that has exceptional strength and superior mechanical integrity will protect these world class optics no matter what punishment you throw at it. |
| Heat Treated One Piece Tube Construction | Heat treated one piece tube gives the scope extra strength over multi-piece tubes. A one piece tube also is better at keeping moisture out thus keeping your scope fog proof for the life of the product |
| Waterproof | Waterproof to protect the scope in the harshest weather conditions or if accidently submerged underwater |
| Fog proof | Fog proof to allow you to immediately engage your target when you take your rifle to cold ambient temperature from warm inside |
| Shockproof | Robust mechanical system with special designs on both control and erector system that give you the ultimate recoil resistance to withstand 1000G recoil for 1000 times. |
| Argon Purged | Argon Purging uses the inertia gas with bigger size molecules to purge any moisture out of the tube giving you better waterproofing and thermal stability . |

D. Kan –
This model is the MOA recticle review, great scope is made in China, but under great multi coated glass specifications. Illumination is bright daylight visible, but only under highest 2 settings, really glows and pops in lower light settings. The on off between brightness levels was a wonderful design. The previous complains of mushy knobs were not present as they were tight hard clicks. This setup was mounted on an Aero Precision Extended mount on a JP LRP-07 16″ .308 light contour and ran great from 50-100yrds laser precision, felt like shooting a bolt action. For closer under 25 yard and closer precision applications was not ideal, but not terrible with both eyes open “red dot” style use, there is an eye piece adjuster, the parallax is fixed, second focal plane recticle was clearly etched, but may get lost in shadows without illumination on and long range use, recommend a spotting partner and making a quick a doping card had to be made for specific different bullet weights and was good to go afterwards. Eye relief was listed at 3.8″ but mine was closer to 4 inches was a refreshing change over the industry standard for similar 1-4 and 1-6x at 2.5 to 3 inches eye pokers. Great for AR style setup, not the lightest optic, but not horrible if using a light mount like the Aero Precision. Covered caps were a plus to prevent additional movement during transportation or storage.
Very impressed at the $529 price point was far superior to the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x at $300, very similar quality to the Zeiss Conquest HD line, but Zeiss low light color quality and use was slightly better (post dusk/ pre dawn few minutes additional usage with Zeiss). This would compete with the Swarovski Z6i, with the Z6i with slightly better color accuracy, but edge to edge clarity was similar with little to no noticeable chromatic aberrations except extreme bright background with very dark shadow foreground was rare. Color is non-issue unless you plan on using this scope for photography use. Competitor would be the Vortex Viper 1-4x, but the additional reach would goto the Athlon.
The lifetime transferable warranty was a huge plus, will be keeping and using for amateur 3-gun applications and general 50-100yr outdoor range applications, works well the the Vortex flip up eye piece covers, held zero fine after fiddling with elevation and windage and returning to zero. For 200 yard plus, would go with something of higher magnification, but overall very pleased with the Athlon Optics Midas line.
