The Athlon Ares HLR 30mm 2.5-15×42 Riflescope (Athlon part no. 212130) is a lightweight premium hunting scope built by Athlon for hunters who want serious low-light performance without extra bulk. A one-piece 30mm aircraft-grade aluminum tube houses a 2.5-15x magnification system and a 42mm objective lens, paired with the illuminated AHMC1 Fiber Dot MOA reticle for fast target acquisition in dim conditions. Side-focus parallax adjustment runs from 10 yards to infinity, and the whole scope is argon-purged for waterproof, fogproof, shockproof reliability. At just 18.90 ounces, it’s built to stay light on a hunting rifle without sacrificing glass quality.
