Athlon Optics 6-24x50mm Helos BTR
Built on a one-piece aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum tube and featuring fully multi-coated optics, the Athlon Optics 6-24x50mm Helos BTR has everything shooters expect from a quality long-range riflescope — except a hefty price tag. A locking feature on the elevation and windage turrets allows the shooter to simply pull up the turrets to dial them in and push down to lock them in place. This first focal plane scope has an illuminated MOA reticle for greater visibility in low-light situations, etched on the glass to provide durability and much higher shock resistance to recoil. Its heat-treated one-piece tube gives it extra strength and is argon purged with larger-sized molecules to provide better waterproofing and thermal stability.
