[QUOTE="GmAn1, post: 1516610, member: 107844"] I too have the argos btr 8-34×56 on my aero precision ar-10 6.5 creedmore home build. On Thanksgiving I went out coyote hunting in which I got skunked. However as most coyote hunters do I was on high ground with plenty of real estate to shoot. So I lined up for a 1500yd shot. Completely ridiculous yardage. But when I was looking for a good backstop I saw a power line approx 1 mile away and I am going to be completely honest. The power line was crystal clear, I was blown away! The eye relief was a lil tight but with that AR platform. The recoil was zero stop there wasn't a need to get too far off the scope. And the answer is no! I didn't hit my 1500 yd target. But in my defense. My best shot was at 580 yds in the past. So adding another 1k yards without a moa calculator. Im satisfied. I will drill the target 1 day.. God Bless and enjoy that athlon scope. It will be the best bang for your buck. A little side note. I almost bought a vortex PST off a guy that was selling it to buy the athlon and changed my heart. The price was right so I went with the athlon Btr. [/QUOTE]
