Athlon Neos HMR 3-9x40 Rifle Scope Built for Shotgun Hunting and Practical Illuminated Holdovers
The Athlon Neos HMR 3-9x40 Rifle Scope is built for shotgun hunters who want a useful magnification range, an illuminated BDC250S reticle, and dependable field performance. It is a strong fit for slug guns, deer hunting, and shooters who want a purpose-driven illuminated reticle in a simple hunting optic.
This model features fully multi-coated lenses, a BDC250S SHOTGUN SFP IR MOA reticle, and a fixed 100-yard parallax setting to keep operation easy in the field. With its capped turrets and nitrogen-purged one-piece tube, it offers practical shotgun-focused functionality in a familiar 3-9x format.
