[QUOTE="Clucknmoan, post: 1360545, member: 80034"] I haven't messed with the Midas much, but I have 2 Ares in MIL and like them quite a lot. Track well and no correction factor needed as per tall target tests. If you are getting a MIL version, it's a matter of SFP vs FFP to me. Whichever you prefer, both reticles are acceptable. If you are going MOA, I'd choose the Ares hands down because of the reticle choice alone. Midas line does not offer a HORUS style reticle in the MOA versions. I much prefer them. If I was looking to buy an Athlon right now, I'd be headed for Cabelas. The original Cronus is on sale for $999, I think that's $800 off. I have 2 of the newer Cronus BTR'S and they are by far my favorite scopes. [/QUOTE]
