Price point is capped in the $2000k range. I thought I was going to go with a Rix L3, but have stumbled upon the Athlon ATS models which offer better specs at the price point. At least as for as the sensor and objective size IE the L3 at $2599 is a 35mm 384 and the ATS-50 $1799 (@EO) is a 50mm 400-300 I’ve tried searching with some results for the L3 but very little info on the Athlon.
What I’m I missing between the two and what else should I be looking at.
I have 42 acres but most is wooded. My longest clear shot is 365 yards and coyotes are my target. I know I’m on the low end price wise so I’m sure written specs may not tell the story.
$2500 is the real max but I’d prefer to stay lower.
I’ve never even looked through a thermal scope so the lack of reference may be a good thing. I know once you look through a top tier optic it ruins the rest.
