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

If you’re tired of walking to the target to see your shot, buy it. Works great when shooting lower power scopes. Also price is great for what you are getting. Athlon is a trusted brand and the quality is great. Can see targets extremely clear at 100 yards

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.

Pretty impressive scope for under $200.! I’ve tried a $1,000 spotting scope and one from that cheap harbor “f” store in town. This scope is comparable to the $1,000 scope and puts the “HF” scope to shame. I can easily see bullet holes in targets at 100 yards and the scope is great for “bird watching” even 3-5 times farther than that. There’s no parallax which is awesome and the glass is crystal clear. I only wish it had a tall tripod stand but at least the short one it comes with works well and fits in the carry bag. Over all I’m very pleased with it as long as I maintain realistic expectations.

Bought to watch sailboats out of my window. I can see them up to several miles away from inside my house with this scope. I am blown away by the photo quality. At about half a mile I can make out the words on a “No trespassing sign” on a beach area on 60x zoom although it’s ever so slightly blurred. Strong value for the money. I also haven’t tested it, but Athlon claims they have a lifetime no questions asked warranty policy in the included manual.The tripod works ok for sitting at a desk but it’s too short for anything else. Construction is sturdy and the device feels good. The telescoping eye protector works well as do all of the knobs.Only quibble is that the knob that tightens and u tightens to allow the device to rotate makes contact with the focus knob at about -75 degrees from North, so you cannot fully rotate the device circumferentially when it’s mounted to a tripod. Not a big deal.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from this scope, especially for the price but..... At 100 yards 223 bullet holes are easily seen, at 300 yards with golf tees in the target, excellent clarity and at last 600 yards, golf tees with a star type top I can see the golf tee stars perfectly. I'm pretty sure there is't a spotting scope made that to can see 223 bullet holes in a bullseye target at 300+ yards made, maybe in the white part of the target you might see them. Again at 600 yards I was able to clearly see blades of tall grass and the star top of the golf tee at top magnification and surprisingly clear. I suppose like all optical products made there may be a wide spectrum of clarity and quality. I am extremely picky about spotting scopes and rifle scopes in general, this Athlon scope was a pleasant surprise and very low cost for the such good quality.

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

For a 131 dollars i was surprised at the quality! It is crystal clear at 300+ yards!! Totally recommend

It’s a decent spotting scope. I don’t think you’ll find better for the price. The image is not as bright as I was hoping but like the title says, it’ll get the job done.
