Straight Spotting Scopes

This collection covers straight-body spotting scopes, where the eyepiece sits inline with the body. That layout is intuitive and fast to get on target, easier from a vehicle window or a prone position, and natural for downhill or below-you viewing.

We carry straight models from the Athlon Argos HD, Ares G2 UHD and Cronus G2 UHD lines, from 7-42x60 to 20-60x85, and Kite's handheld, image-stabilized APC 60 ED. The Ares G2 UHD steps up to higher-grade glass for low-light clarity, while the Argos HD keeps the inline format accessible.
