Looking for input in these two scopes. Vortex Viper HD 5-25X50, Athlon Ares BTR Gen 3 4.5-27x50. Does anyone have any experience with either of the two?
Primarily used for Elk hunting, but some occasional PRS as well. 300 prc rifle.

good morning,

I'd lean vortex as i've had them and used them for a few years now. have you considered the lht from vortex? i might lean that direct for a hunting rifle.

PRS with a 300 PRC? I like your moxie! lol

I was thinking the Razor LHT would have been a better option also.

Hahaha, really just long-range recreational activity. I can't afford to do that a lot.

Thanks for the input on the Razor. Also, glad to see a fellow firefighter on here.

Yeah that would be more fun with a PRC lol

Yup there are a bunch of firefighters on here. Got to represent! Even though I am retired now but still volunteering to stay in the game. lol

I locked on to hunting, zoned on the prs part honestly. i'm glad we have a similar perspective here.
