APLR16 First Focal Plane Illuminated MOA Reticle
The APLR16 is a highly detailed Christmas tree-style MOA reticle located in the first focal plane. Because it is FFP, the reticle scales with the magnification, allowing accurate holdovers and windage corrections at any power setting. The reticle features a floating center dot, precise MOA hash marks, and an extensive grid for rapid long-range engagement. The illuminated portion offers multiple brightness settings, providing excellent visibility in low-light conditions while remaining crisp in bright daylight. This makes the APLR16 one of the most versatile and user-friendly MOA reticles available for long-range shooting.
Premium Optical Performance
The Athlon Midas TAC GEN2J 5-30x56 utilizes high-definition (HD) glass that delivers outstanding resolution, color fidelity, and edge-to-edge clarity. Athlon’s advanced Fully Multi-Coated lenses maximize light transmission while minimizing glare and reflections. The large 56mm objective lens provides superior light-gathering capability, producing bright, sharp images even during dawn, dusk, and other low-light conditions. Combined with the powerful 5-30x magnification range, this scope offers the clarity and detail needed for precise shots at extreme distances.
