Overview
A second focal plane rifle scope with 6-24x magnification and a 50mm objective, built on a 1 inch tube with an illuminated ATMR1 MIL reticle and side focus parallax adjustment.
Opinion splits at the top end: some found it usable through the full 24x while others described the image going dark and losing detail from roughly 18x upward.

Who it's for
Suits shooters wanting an affordable high-magnification scope for medium to long range work who mainly plan to use the lower half of the zoom range. Less suited to anyone who needs consistently clear glass all the way to 24x, since more than one reviewer found the top end dim and blurry.
Pros and cons
- Clear, repeatable glass through the low to mid range
- Illuminated reticle useful in low light
- Backed by Athlon's lifetime warranty
- Image reported dark and blurry above about 18x
- No sun shade or flip-up caps included
- One unit arrived with adjustment turrets not working
