Athlon Ares 20-60x85

[UpTop]

Just looking for reviews or opinions on this scope. Decent amount about the 65 but nothing about the bigger one. How does it compare to the razor or the maven s1? Are there better choices in the middle range scopes? Thanks for any replies

While this isn’t the Ares this video reviews the Cronus in the same size that you have discussed in your post and it compared quite well. I have the 65 objective and really like it.

I know it’s been a minute but if anyone has experience with this scope I’d be interested in feedback also!

I’m sure it’s a sharp spotter it looks like one of the downsides is a low FOV compared to the others you mentioned.

I have owned this scope for over 2 years, kept waiting for it to let me down. Elk hunts in the coast range of Oregon are a great place to find weak spots, bottom line is I haven't found any. Fantastic clear optic in fact this past weekend on a coast bear hunt, I had a bruin bedded at 1020yds, laying next to a burnt black log. I could easily see the difference between the two and could pickout color anomalies on the log that made all the difference. I am completely satisfied with this scope, I have used the big boy optcs and other than a zeiss diascope have never looked through anything more clear. I only wish it did not have a barrel focus. just don't like em, but at an all in price of $650 I can live with it.
