Review - Athlon Cronus BTR

After the holiday season we are gathing up the gear and charts we have on hand, then slowly add to it month by month.

We are doing this for the fun of the sport.
Tests & Reviews right here in Western Canada's out-doors.

Ok, a home built facility.
The main stage will be 100 meters, then with the grace of our farm nabour folks we will be able to range out to a massive distance beyond what any bullet will ever reach.

The above is only a sample of what it will take to perform a review,,, the ones we are hoping to pull off will "normally take a year.

This is a major under taking, and time consuming.
All of us taking part in these have full time jobs and hobbies in the shooting sports world along with family's and other things on the go.

The only reasons for us going this route is to set up a on going test sight to make sure our optics are doing what they are suppose to do.

As I mentioned in the above post,,, we are going to address the mid to mid higher price optics first,,, access to them is easy & everyone "normally" uses these optics for Harvesting critters and general plinking.
Some with in the Muzzle to 100 or 300 meters, other folks beyond that.

Then later in the year, is to start on the higher quality optics once everything is set-up in the open to closed features departments.

Kinda like the thick of things.

The above link is just a sample of what each of us can do, of course this is for those that choose to push the limits of what we're after.

Thanks for the review,
Too bad this wasn't on my radar 12 months ago as i would of likely picked this one.
As a vortex user myself, it looks like it's in between a pst gen ll and a razor gen ll.
Which makes it decent and affordable.
Seems like they have a vortex similar waranty too
 
This is one of the links attached to the "above "PRS" link as above.

It puts a whole new aspect of resolution and contrast.

Getting schooled is good.

Funny thing is that this idea came up at our range this summer.
One of the members is a optic photography persons, he talked about the camera lens filters in general that can adapt onto optic scopes.

This conversation was about dealing with clarity and heat waves from hot rifle barrels and the Mirage down range.
Of course this has it benefits and disadvantages.
Won't know till we look into this

Don

PS: At least I'm taking my time to get it right ones and for all.

Deffinatly a eye opener.
