We did side by side comparisons with the Garmin. The Athlon was very close to the Garmin across the board regardless of rifle or handgun cartridge. I only experienced one time the Athlon missed a shot, and it was because it was too far to one side of the rifle. Moved it closer, and it never missed a shot.
It is easier to manipulate than the Garmin, less buttons to push and the screen is larger, easier to see.
It gets a very good grade here, and I found no issues with it at all. If I did not have the Garmin already I would go with the Athlon for sure. Larger screen and less button pushing is a huge plus.
I bought the Athlon a month or so ago and have been pleased with it. It is the first/only chronograph that I’ve ever owned so I can’t compare it to any of the others. I bought it mainly to confirm MV of different ammo/rifle combos before ordering CDS turrets for my Leupold scopes.
Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
