I'm trying something a little different mate.

I've just got in from the States an Athlon Ares BTR 4.5-27x50. First impressions it looks really good, not light tho at 27 oz.

FFP, HD glass, 90 MOA total adjustment, 25 moa per turn. Hard zero stop. Real usable illuminated reticle (unlike my vortex PST)

Will see how it goes, if it doesn't measure up I'll be looking for something else once the piggy bank has recovered ��

I can't find my bloody digi scales, so havnt weighed it as yet, but with the #3 barrel at 26" and LA it's a fair chunk heavier feeling than my 22" mod 7 7mm Saum but that is dam light at 3.1kg scoped.

Thanks Eben, its a slippery slope this custom business. Once you start with one good part you kinda gotta keep going ��
