Athlon Scopes - your opinion?
- Thread starter adzmullen
- Start date
Mounted yesterday and added a JD Garland magnetic parallax wheel. zero’d easily this morning.
So far so good but my focus will be pistol HFT so it will be interesting to how well the scope ranges 10-35 yards and how easily the holdovers work out.

A wonderful scope, only to be ruined by a terrible looking parallax wheel
Sorry, just my opinion but those are an eyesore

Field target specific
However a mag wheel snaps on and off

As long as you like it, that's all that matters
It would be boring if we were all the same.

Only complaint I got on my athlon is weight .. it's heavy vs others I got and can make a gun feel top heavy ..
I bought a store display athlon cheap that was no good holding zero / stripped turret ( why it was cheap..lol)
Sent it in .. like 3 days to mail it to them .. 3 days with them ... And the day or 2 mail back .
Works as good as new no issues .. satisfied
Only question on there no questions asked warranty was return address .
Well I did give brief description of problem as well

At first I wasn't a fan thought they were cheap decided to try a helos ffp and loved it i bought another I would take the helos over a hawke and hawkes are pretty decent

I’m in agreement - as my Athlon Heras SPR 6-24x56 both FFP and SFP are just as capable in HFT at 16X… Hawkes need more numerical markers and not just dots.
