Thread: New scope decision

Its all dependent on budget as per usual. I recently went through this exercise and ended up with a used Athlon ARES 4.5-27x50 (thanks The Claw) and its a very decent scope for the money. I've had a Swaro Z5 3-18 and a Leupold VX5 HD 3-15x44 and while the glass is not quite the same as these its not greatly inferior either . . . at least on a par with my Sightron S111 8-32x56. The scope has a really well through out design package and is well executed mechanically. Guarantee - well who will know . . .
