Thanks a great deal for all the responses but I found an 6-24x56mm Athlon Helos BTR with the APRS6 FFP IL reticle at eBay for $549 W/free shipping and it has a 34mm tube, 56mm front lens AND a zero set AND locking target turrets with a TD Christmas tree style reticle I really like.
Literally everything I wanted in a RS for NRL and PRS.
I got it in three days, tried it out loved it went back to buy a second one and the price went up to over $600.
This is happened now three previous times when I bought three different rifle scopes in the last almost two years.
First it was when I bought a Swift Premier 6-24x50mm 1/4" TD scope at Amazon for IIRC <$250 only to see it go up to well over $300 in less than 72 hours
Second was when I bought a Crimson Trace Brushline Pro 4-12x40mm scope for <$130 TMD again to see the price go up by over $60 in less than 72 hours
And lastly with the Athlon Helos I just bought.
Just used the Athlon Helos on top of my T1X as a test bed and was very happy with it. Extremely clear and bright glass and the illuminated reticle works even in very bright light, actually can be to bright.
Absolutely Christal clear at 10 yards.
Target dot could be a little bigger but it works quite well.
I looked at evaluated the fallowing scopes before choosing the Helos:
<>Arken SH4 6-24x50 GREAT scope IMHO absolutely best scope for the money EXCEPT will not focus down below 25 yards a total deal killer for a scope used for NRL or PRS as ALL the clubs by me (including mine) who host NRL or PRS shoots have targets starting at 15 yards.
<>Arken EP5 6-25x50 same issue as the SH4. If the SH4 or EP5 focused down to 15 yards I'd own at least two.
<>Bushnell match Pro
Was going to buy but scope has no zero stop and the Helos was only 12% more and offered a butt load more features for only $60 more.
<>Athlon Argos BTR 6-24x50 and Argos BTR 8-34x56
Great scopes but no reticle available for either with a target dot and for ME a TD is if possible is a must have item in a 22lr precision optic
Will see how well it serves me or most truthful how well I serve it.
