Athlon Optics 4.5-27x50 Ares BTR Series Riflescope, Matte Black with Illuminated FFP MOA APLR3 Reticle, 30mm Tube

When you want the best features from the top-tier riflescopes but not break the bank, look no further than the new Ares BTR first focal plane riflescope family. These feature rich affordable riflescopes are set to take the market by storm. HD Glass and advanced fully multicoated optics deliver crisp bright images for taking long range shots. The one piece tube, precision-machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum will deliver precise, accurate results all day long.

APLR3 first focal plane IR MOA illuminated reticle
APLR3 FFP IR MOA reticle has a large illuminated center with 1 moa hash mark increments and drop lines in 5 moa increment on vertical direction down to 40 moa, both of which help you quickly lock in your target and set holdover positions. The illuminated portion has a 2 moa span center cross with illuminated cross line extends to 40 moa on both vertical and horizontal direction.

The drop lines have smaller dots with 1 moa in between and bigger dots at each 5 moa interval, starting 5 moa length horizontally and ending up 50 moa in length at the 40 moa drop line. The illuminated reticle provides excellent low light visibility and accurate elevation holdovers all the way up to 40 moa with 1 moa markings increment. The unique design of having droplines going down to 40 moa with 5 moa between each drop line and 1 moa hash marks in between provide excellent holding over positions for long precision shooting.

Features

HD Glass
HD Glass gives you better light transmission, brighter, and sharper image.

Illuminated Reticle
The illuminated reticle provides greater visibility during dusk and dawn and other low ambient light environment.

First Focal Plane Reticle
First focal plane reticle stays valid at all power settings allowing you to fully utilize the specially designed reticle that shrinks or grows along with your target as you zoom in or out. The reticle offers quick target engagement at low power while offering precise holdover positions with finer details.

Etched Glass Reticle
Reticle etched on the glass that provides excellent backing support for complex reticle design and offers great durability and much higher shock resistance to recoil

Advanced Fully Multicoated
Fully Multicoated optics effectively reduces reflected light and increases the transmission of light giving you a brighter image than normal single coated lenses

XPL Coating
XPL Coating gives you an extra protection on the exterior lenses from dirt, oil and scratches or anything else mother nature can throw at you.

Precision Zero Stop System
The system allows you to lock down your zero position and dial back to it with a sharp and precise stop right at your zero mark even you are turning it in pitch-dark or blind folded.

High Precision Erector System
The high precision erector system processed by high precision CNC machine with +/- 0.0001mm tolerance level to provide you the most accurate power settings and smoothest magnification change

6061 T6 Aluminum
The 6061T6 aircraft grade aluminum tube that has exceptional strength and superior mechanical integrity will protect these world class optics no matter what punishment you throw at it.

Exposed Tactical Direct Dial
Exposed Direct Dial Turrets for elevation and windage allow you to quickly make adjustment as you needed and engage your target within a blink of your eyes

One Piece Tube Construction
Heat treated one piece tube gives the scope extra strength over multi-piece tubes. A one piece tube also is better at keeping moisture out thus keeping your scope fog proof for the life of the product

Waterproof
Waterproof to protect the scope in the harshest weather conditions or if accidently submerged underwater

Fogproof
Fogproof to allow you to immediately engage your target when you take your rifle to cold ambient temperature from warm inside

Shockproof
Robust mechanical system with special designs on both control and erector system that give you the ultimate recoil resistance to withstand 1000G recoil for 1000 times.

Argon Purged
Argon Purging uses the inertia gas with bigger size molecules to purge any moisture out of the tube giving you better waterproofing and thermal stability.
