    Rifle Scopes Compare Athlon Midas TAC vs. Ares ETR

    Thanks Flatland. That’s what I was looking for. I did not see the Ares ETR having glass that was ~$400 better than the BTR. Maybe later if I decide I want to shoot out to 1500 yard but for now, the BTR is the one for me.

    Rifle Scopes Compare Athlon Midas TAC vs. Ares ETR

    Ok. Please explain. I’m planning on pulling the trigger on and ETR or BTR (Ares) this week. I’m looking for opinions

    Rifle Scopes Compare Athlon Midas TAC vs. Ares ETR

    It’s interesting that you did not mention clarity. That’s the key for me. Am I going to be able to “see” the price difference between the ETR and BTR? I wish they were sold locally to the DC metro.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon glass

    Yeah, I noticed my typo after the round was down range. LOL. But I really like the TAC and I’m not sure if I have the experience or capability to get the full use out of the ETR. That’s the real rub.

    Does the Midas TAC and the Ares BTR use the same glass? I’m trying to decide between the two and justify the price difference. I shoot an Argos BTR now so I know either will be a step up.

    Rifle Scopes Illuminated reticle in PRS

    Thanks for the info. I plan on shooting Pigg River a couple times this year. I’m seriously considering that Midas Tac. This may have tipped it.

    Rifle Scopes Illuminated reticle in PRS

    I’m new to the PRS world, only competed in 3 matches so far. I just upped my rifle to a RPR and am looking to move up from the Athlon Argo 6-24. I like the Midas Tac but it does not have an illuminated reticle. I did not see a reason to use it in any of my past matches. Is there something I am...

    Hello Hide members. I’m a new member from Virginia. I dipped my toe in the PRS game last year with a Ruger American .308 in an MDT chassis. Using an Athlon Argo optic I got out to 1000 yards but the gun was a hunter not a PRS rig. So I ditched it for a Ruger Precision. I’m looking to learn a...
