ABOUT THE HELos BTR SERIES

The Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 line is designed as a high-performance crossover optic for hunters and precision shooters. It combines a first focal plane reticle, snap-on zero-stop turrets, and locking turret mechanism, all in a rugged, mid-weight package ideal for both field and range use.

The Helos BTR Gen2 family includes:

  • 2–12×42
  • 4–20×50 (this model)
  • 6–24×56

ABOUT THE MODEL (Helos BTR GEN2 4–20×50)

The Helos BTR GEN2 4–20×50 features a 30 mm main tube and 50 mm objective, delivering a wide field of view from 8.5 m to 27.9 ft @100 yds (27.9–5.6 ft) with 3.6” eye relief. It offers full side-focus parallax adjustment from 10 yd to infinity, and a total elevation travel of 32 MRAD / 100 MOA and windage travel of 25 MRAD / 80 MOA :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.

Reticle choices include APRS6 (MIL) or APLR6 (MOA), both FFP with a fine 0.05 MIL (approx. 0.17 MOA) floating center dot and Christmas-tree style subtensions. The locking turrets allow for secure dial setting, with user-adjustable zero stop plates :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.

Users report “great value … best value out there. Mine all track and hold zero” and find the glass crisp and turrets high quality :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.

Dear Optics Trade Team

What mount would you recommend to use for this optic in combination with a Ruger Precision Rifle in .308? Would the "Spuhr QD mount for Picatinny, 30 mm, 0 MOA" with 23mm height over bore suitable?

Thanks in advance!

by Victor

Dear Victor!

 

Any mount with the BH height of at least 16mm will work. If you wish to have the extended mount or not is a matter of taste and not function. 

 

The Spuhr is definetly a very good option: https://www.optics-trade.eu/en/spuhr-extended-qd-mount-for-picatinny-30-mm-0-moa.html
