Athlon OpticsTalos 20-60x80 Spotter Scope - Durable Outdoor Equipment for Hunting, Shooting Targets & Bird Watching - Spotting Scope Perfect Addition to Hunting Accessories

Great little spotting scope for the price. Good for range days or just wildlife watching. I have knocked this thing over so many times and it still looks good.

Items works as described

Works pretty decent, eye relief isn't good, but for the price it gets the job done

Arrived on time. Works as should.thanks

This is a great budget spotting scope. I have used it at the range when sighting in at 200+ yards. Also when scouting for upcoming hunts. Can read a STOP sign at 4 miles away. Some blurring at the edges......but why would you be looking at the edges? For the money it works great, and I dont have to be overly worried about cosmetic bumps and bruises. The tripod it comes with is tiny but functional. The carry bag has held up well. I have lost the lens caps, but that's no fault of the scope. But an improvement might be to somehow allow them to remain attached when opened up. Would definitely recommend to anyone getting in to hunting, who have a limited budget, and too much other gear to buy still.

Fantastic spotting scope for the money. Worked great with long shot camera. Images were crystal clear and easy to use. Worked great for long range shooting.

Using splash targets you can easily see 223 holes out to 200 yds basically all I needed it for, magnification past 20 is blurry so basically you are only getting clarity at 20 the lowest setting

You already know what to expect at this price range, but I was pleasantly surprised! I haven't had any issues with blue outline refraction or anything else out of the ordinary. No seriously noticeable fishbowl effect when panning side to side. It does work best at less than full 60x zoom. I can see .17HMR hits at 100yds fine on cardboard targets. It's a little less than perfect, but with a good tripod, and a minute to look carefully, I can see .22-250 hits at 200yds.. At 300yds, I'd be able to see hits on steel, but most likely not .22 hits on cardboard. Just messing around, I can count the bolts on the highest tier of a cellular tower from 1/4 mile. but I can't read grave stones from the same distance. It's a fair optic for the money, but it's also got that wide open, no optic coating, clear glass, kinda cheap view. Trying to focus through tree limbs, there's quite a bit of distortion, and the eye relief is pretty short. The rotating mount sleeve is a nice feature, the sunshade is a little short, but it's effective until the sun gets pretty low. It gets dark, and the image quality suffers after 40x, but I've been turning it up to 60x, and backing it down until I get a satisfactory view. In good light, a person new to scopes in this range should be really happy with it, as long as they don't expect to see the color of a bird's eyes at 500yds and full zoom. The focus knob is just right, not stiff, not too loose. It actually does a nice job. For a budget optic, I rate it a 5/5 for doing what a budget scope does, rather well.
