The Athlon Talos 4-16X40 rifle scope is built for hunters who need to stretch their effective shooting window. With a 4x to 16x magnification range and fully multi-coated optics, this second focal plane scope delivers the light-gathering performance that matters most during the low-light hours when game is moving. Whether you're glassing timber for whitetails or scanning open country for longer-range opportunities, the Talos gives you the versatility to handle diverse hunting terrain without switching glass.
The scope features a capped turret design with side parallax adjustment, eliminating the need for objective bell adjustments and keeping your setup compact and protected. The mil-dot reticle is clean and straightforward—no illumination means no batteries to manage and no complications in the field. Built on an aircraft-grade aluminum tube and nitrogen-purged for waterproof durability, the Talos is made to weather the conditions you'll throw at it. At just over 19 ounces, it won't burden your rifle build, and the 3.8- to 3.35-inch eye relief gives you a comfortable sight picture across the magnification range.
With 0.1 mil click adjustments, 20 mil of total travel in both elevation and windage, and parallax correction from 10 yards to infinity, the Talos is equally at home on a brush gun or a dedicated range rifle. It's the kind of scope that works hard without demanding attention—good glass, proven mechanics, and honest performance for hunters who know what they need.
| Magnification | 4-16x |
| Objective Lens | 40mm |
| Tube Diameter | 1 inch |
| Reticle | Mil-dot, second focal plane, non-illuminated |
| Turrets | Capped |
| Click Value | 0.1 MIL |
| Adjustment Per Rotation | 5 MIL |
| Total Elevation Adjustment | 20 MIL |
| Total Windage Adjustment | 20 MIL |
| Parallax Adjustment | Side focus, 10 yards to infinity |
| Eye Relief | 3.8–3.35 inches |
| Field of View @ 100 yards | 24.1–6.3 feet |
| Weight | 19.1 ounces |

The Talos uses a second focal plane (SFP) design, which means the mil-dot reticle subtensions are only accurate at maximum magnification. At lower powers, the reticle size remains the same relative to the reticle but not to the target. For most hunters using the scope at full magnification, this design is intuitive and effective. If you plan to regularly hold over at variable magnifications, a first focal plane scope would be the alternative choice.
Yes. The Talos includes side parallax adjustment (also called side focus) that allows you to dial out parallax error at distances from 10 yards to infinity. The adjustment knob is located on the left side of the scope body, making it easy to fine-tune parallax without removing your eye from the glass.
The 4-16x range gives you flexibility. At 4x, the wider field of view is ideal for close-range hunting in timber. Dialing up to 16x is better suited for long-range or varmint work. Many hunters split the difference and use the middle range when hunting unpredictable terrain where targets may appear at varying distances.
Yes. The Talos is nitrogen-purged and waterproof, meaning it's sealed against moisture and sealed from the inside to prevent fogging in changing temperatures. This durability is essential for reliable performance in wet or cold conditions.
