Athlon 10x42 fixed power scope

I'm curious if anyone has tried this specific model yet? A lot less moving parts in a fixed power so should be more durable in theory. Would be putting it on my 260 Rem if I go ahead with it.

First time i've seen that one. You could get it, test it and let us know. But the easy button would be a 10x SWFA. It's good to go.

Can't get the SWFA in Canada unfortunately. The Athlon looks really interesting though.

My bad, didn't know that. Here we can't get SWFA a lot of times!

Yes I was following the SWFA thread and saw that lol.

Bringing this thread up again, has anyone used one of these yet?

Id bet if you put up a WTB thread for a 10x SWFA someone will ship one to Canada. There's also a lot of eBay. The 10x SWFA is pretty easy to find it's the 6x and 3-9 that are impossible

You can import swfa into Canada through Prophet River firearms. Easy enough process... they end up being pretty expensive tho!
