Athlon Bdc 22 Rimfire 1"Athlon Scope Neos 3-9X40

The Athlon Optics Neos 3-9x40 rimfire scope delivers straightforward optical performance for .22 shooters and small-game hunters who refuse to compromise on glass quality without emptying their wallet. This 1-inch tube scope pairs a practical magnification range with a durable aluminum construction, making it a solid choice whether you're shooting at the range or afield chasing rabbits and squirrels.

Built around a one-piece aluminum tube, the Neos is engineered to take the recoil and rough handling that comes with field use. The fully multi-coated lens system maximizes light transmission across the visible spectrum, delivering the brightness and clarity you need in variable lighting conditions. It's the kind of scope that rewards budget-conscious shooters who understand that good glass doesn't require a premium price tag.

The BDC 22 reticle is optimized for rimfire ballistics, helping you hold cleaner on target at varying distances without constant turret adjustments. Pair that with the 3-9x magnification range and you've got a versatile optic that works equally well on a .22 rifle in open country or dense cover. This is purpose-built for rimfire hunting and precision shooting where you want reliable performance and honest engineering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Athlon Neos 3-9x40 good for rimfire hunting?

Yes. The scope is purpose-built for rimfire rifles with a BDC 22 reticle optimized for .22 ballistics. The 3-9x magnification and 40mm objective work well for small-game hunting and rimfire precision shooting out to practical ranges.

What kind of rifle does this scope mount to?

The Neos features a 1-inch tube, which fits standard 1-inch scope rings found on most rimfire and centerfire rifles with Weaver or Picatinny rails.

How does the multi-coated lens improve the image?

Fully multi-coated optics reduce light reflection at lens surfaces, allowing more light to pass through the scope to your eye. This results in a brighter, clearer image—especially valuable in low-light hunting conditions.

Is this scope durable enough for field use?

The one-piece aluminum tube is built to handle the demands of hunting and shooting. The robust construction and quality optics make it suitable for regular field use on rimfire rifles.
