The Athlon Talos 20-60x80 spotting scope delivers exceptional long-range observation capabilities with its variable magnification system and large 80mm objective lens. This tan-finished optic provides the clarity and versatility needed for precision shooting, wildlife observation, and tactical applications where target identification at extended distances is critical.
What Makes This Different
The Talos series stands apart with its fully multi-coated lens system that maximizes light transmission across the entire magnification range. Unlike fixed-power scopes, the 20-60x variable zoom allows users to quickly transition from wide-field scanning at 20x to detailed target analysis at 60x magnification. The 80mm objective lens gathers significantly more light than standard 60mm models, extending usable observation time into dawn and dusk conditions.
Key Features
- Variable 20-60x magnification with smooth zoom ring operation
- Large 80mm objective lens for superior light gathering capability
- Fully multi-coated optics for maximum brightness and contrast
- Durable tan finish provides effective camouflage in arid environments
- Nitrogen-purged housing prevents internal fogging and condensation
- Standard tripod mounting thread for stable positioning
- Rubber armor coating protects against impacts and improves grip
Field performance remains consistent across the magnification range, maintaining sharp focus from minimum distance to infinity. The scope excels in competitive shooting scenarios where spotters need to call wind conditions and impact locations at 600+ yards. Hunters benefit from the wide field of view at lower magnifications for game location, then zoom to higher power for ethical shot placement verification. The waterproof construction handles adverse weather conditions without compromising optical clarity.
