[QUOTE="Paladin300, post: 2285042, member: 115299"] I am presently running about seven Athlons, 6 or 7 Leupolds and a S&B pm ii. I really like Athlon. The Midas TAC, Ares BTR, Ares ETR and Cronus scopes are as good as any. IMHO they are better than Vortex and as good as Leupold in comparable lines. The glass in the Cronus is as good as that of the Nightforce Atacr. I also think Athlon has one of the best reticles. In my opinion if your budget is $1600 or less you can’t go wrong with Athlon. They are a great company. If my budget was unlimited and I just wanted to know I had the best money could buy I would go with a NF Atacr but not because they are necessarily better just more proven and battle tested. The Atacr is nearly indestructible but the Cronus is built in the same factory and I would bet uses the same or similar glass and components. Athlon’s warranty is outstanding, though I have never had to use it. [/QUOTE]
