Athlon Midas BTR Gen2 HD 1-6x24 ATSR16 SFP IR MOA

A 1-6x24 HD low-power variable optic with the ATSR16 general-purpose MOA holdover reticle, argon-purged construction, and advanced fully multi-coated lenses — built for self-defense, hunting, and short-range tactical work where you need fast target acquisition with holdover capability that works with any cartridge. At 18.1 ounces and 10.6 inches, the Midas BTR Gen2 keeps your rifle fast and maneuverable while the HD glass delivers the clarity and brightness you need to make confident shots.

The ATSR16 reticle centers a 20 MOA illuminated circle around a 4 MOA center cross — the large illuminated ring provides rapid target superimposition at 1x, functioning like an oversized red dot for close-range speed. Beyond the center cross, 2 MOA hash mark increments extend to 30 MOA in all four directions, giving you a clean, readable holdover system for elevation and wind corrections at distance. Because the hash marks use standard MOA increments rather than caliber-specific BDC drops, the ATSR16 works with any cartridge — know your load's trajectory in MOA and hold accordingly. Subtensions are valid at 6x.

Key Features

• HD Glass with Advanced Fully Multi-Coated Lenses — Low-dispersion HD elements reduce chromatic aberration, while the AFMC coating maximizes light transmission for bright, true-color images across the magnification range. XPL protective coating on exterior lenses guards against dirt, oil, and scratches.
• ATSR16 Illuminated Reticle (SFP, MOA) — 20 MOA illuminated circle with 4 MOA center cross for fast close-range acquisition, plus 2 MOA hash marks extending to 30 MOA in all directions for holdover and wind correction. Caliber-agnostic — works with any cartridge using standard MOA holdovers. Subtensions valid at 6x.
• True 1x at the Low End — 108 ft field of view at 100 yards with both-eyes-open shooting capability. The large illuminated circle makes 1x acquisition as fast as a red dot for close-range engagements.
• 18.1 oz, 10.6" Compact Profile — Light and short enough that it disappears on an AR-pattern rifle. The 30mm tube provides a solid mounting platform with widely available ring options.
• Argon Purged — Premium gas purging provides superior fog-proof performance compared to nitrogen, maintaining a clear image through rapid temperature swings.
• Capped Turrets with 0.25 MOA Clicks — Set your zero and forget it. 150 MOA total elevation and windage adjustment provides ample range for zeroing and base corrections.

Ideal For

• Self-defense and home defense shooters who want a true 1x optic with a large illuminated aiming circle for close-range speed, plus magnification for positive target identification at distance — the 20 MOA ring works like an oversized red dot when you need to shoot fast.
• Hunters who want a versatile LPVO with MOA holdover hash marks that work with any cartridge — whether you're running .223, .308, 6.5 Creedmoor, or any other caliber, the 2 MOA increment system lets you hold for drop and wind using your load's known trajectory.
• AR-15 and patrol rifle builders who want an HD-glass LPVO with illuminated reticle at a price point well below the premium European brands — the Midas BTR Gen2 delivers glass quality that punches above its price class.
