Athlon Heras SPR 6-24x56 APLR9 FFP IR MOA Rifle Scope Built for First Focal Plane Long-Range Precision
The Athlon Heras SPR 6-24x56 APLR9 FFP IR MOA riflescope is built for shooters who want a first focal plane illuminated MOA reticle with practical long-range features and dependable field durability. It is a strong fit for target shooting, long-range hunting, and shooters who want accurate MOA references throughout the magnification range.
This scope pairs advanced fully multi-coated lenses, an illuminated reticle, a precision zero stop system, and a locking windage turret to give shooters a useful long-range platform. The APLR9 FFP IR MOA reticle keeps subtensions accurate as power changes, while the 56mm objective and side focus system support confident shooting at distance.
