[QUOTE="PastorHunter, post: 1443373, member: 105939"] As with most of the optics world, I think that depends on which tier of scope you're used to using and what you're interested in. The Midas glass is second only to the Cronus glass in the Athlon line. It's advertised as HD glass fully multicoated blah blah blah. It's the best scope I own personally but I don't have any of the really top end stuff. My son has the Talos BTR in 4-14x and it's waaaay better than the Vortex Crossfire 2 I had for a while. The Midas is 2 steps above that. Most people compare to a Viper PST gen 2 or better. Midas is 2nd focal plane, Ares line of scopes is 1st focal plane but same glass. I don't target shoot so all I can say is I can shoot coyotes much later than I've ever been able to before and when messing around with my sons at 550 yards a milk jug is very easy to see and very clear. (yes I hit it too,lol) Everyone's eyes are different, mine say the Midas is very good, especially for the price. [/QUOTE]
