Athlon Optics Cronus G2 UHD 7-42x60 Spotting Scope

Long-range shooters need a spotting scope with a reticle, not just magnification. The Athlon Cronus G2 UHD 7-42×60 is a purpose-built tactical spotting scope with a first focal plane TSSR MIL reticle, apochromatic UHD glass, and ESP dielectric coating, designed for shooters who use their spotting scope as an active ranging tool rather than just a viewer.

Key Features

• First focal plane TSSR MIL reticle — unobstructive mil lines with 0.2-mil increments and stadia ranging lines for estimating distance to known-size targets. The clean reticle design keeps the field of view open
• Apochromatic UHD glass with advanced fully multi-coated lenses — the apochromatic lens system leaves little or no color fringing, delivering sharp, color-true images. ESP dielectric coating reflects over 99% of light through the optical path
• 7-42x magnification range — at 7x the field of view spans 284 feet at 1,000 yards for fast target acquisition
• Integrated Picatinny rail (top-mounted) lets you mount a red dot sight, laser rangefinder, or offset accessories without an aftermarket rail cage
• Compact straight-body design at 46.6 ounces and 13.9 inches — aluminum alloy chassis with rubber armor, argon purged, fully waterproof
• 10-yard to infinity focus range — useful for target identification at short range

Ideal For

Long-range shooters and spotter/shooter teams. The TSSR reticle's stadia lines provide ranging capability when a laser rangefinder isn't practical, and the mil lines measure deviation from point of aim for precise follow-up corrections.

Hunters who shoot at distance and want a spotting scope that does double duty: glass for game at 7x with a 284-foot field of view, then confirm hits at 42x with mil-based precision.

Want more aperture for observation? The Cronus G2 UHD 20-60x86 delivers an 86mm objective in a 45° angled body: more light gathering and a wider field at top magnification (60 feet at 60x against 47.6 feet at 42x), without a reticle, for hunters and birders who prioritize pure optical performance over tactical functionality.
