Looking at these 2 Binos primarily for tripod mounted PRS matches. I can get either the Athlon Cronus uhd 15x or the Bushnell Forge 15x for real close to the same price. Just comparing these two for my purpose which would be the better choice in reference to glass, durability, warranty, etc. I did notice that the tripod mount on the Forges would be more towards the front than the Athlons. (Not sure if that matters) Anyone with experience comparing these 2 ?
Athlon uhd 15x56 Or Bushnell Forge 15x

I'm looking into the same thing right now with the Vortex Kaibab thrown in as well.
I will say that I think the 8x42 Forge's are excellant from my experience. This is what has me so interested in the 15x Forge. If I come acrossed anything informative in regards to any of them, I'll let you know.

I got a chance to look through the Forges a couple of weeks ago.
I thought they were pretty impressive.
I had been watching the match with my 8x32 Leicas.

Thanks for the replies. I was given a heads up about Busnell giving a military/Leo discount on their website so with the price they offer them for with this discount ($449) and the good reviews I’ve read here and other sites it was a easy decision. Ordered the Bushnells today.
Anyone have the IPD specs for the Bushnell's? I have a pretty narrow IPD so it is important. Need at minimum 56 on the low side, 54/55 is better. Can't seem to find the info online.
You should check out the Steiner HX 15x56 2018 version, often times you can find these close in price
