I see some Athlon scopes getting good reviews on here, but they’re in the $500 range. How do cheaper offerings hold up in terms of durability and tracking? I’m thinking the Talos and Argos line, but I’d also be interested if people have experience with the cheapest models as well (Neos line I believe).
I think you'd be pleasantly surprised at how good those Argos scopes are. On sale at Cameraland awhile back at a great price, bought an 8-34x56 and am amazed at how good the glass and turrets are. Also have an Argos 6-24, same thing. Most recently an Ares 4.5-27, same thing. They hit way above their price point. Don't know about the lower powered scopes but definitely worth a looksee.
