When I realized that Athlon had a g3 line, I quickly saw the Ares BTR gen 3 in 4.5-27x50 and hoped someone will try this thing out and report the glass in it. I love the specs of this scope (also love the NX8, just not the price). I tried to love the gen 2 version, but glass just wasn't cutting...
I just had Feddersen polish up one of their receivers and barrels. Man it turned out great. Such a smooth action. That group is 10 rounds of Eley Club at 50.
I like different color options.
Agreed with the comments of less cluttered reticles, especially for a crossover optic. Otherwise the high mag options with small floating dot all work great.
Too bad they couldn't shrink them turrets. That's really my only complaint with the current offering...
I bought this while I had a Solus action, but sold the action. Don't need it now, and I don't think it's been used. They appear to be out of stock just about everywhere.
Asking $75 shipped. PayPal or Venmo please.
I have a couple of these so I don't need this barrel. I've shot many matches with it scoped and it's very accurate. The iron sights work well out to 200 yards as well. Great trainer for young shooters that are new to iron sights.
I have the front sight hood as well. Comes with a 5 round mag...
