    • Good optic but stingy company
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
The glass is clear and overall it is a good optic BUT I personally did not like the fact that this $500+ optic did not come with proper scope caps or rings. I do understand that $500 is still a really good price for the quality of this product but still. Sig Sauer's budget friendly LPVO's come with the caps and rings and this company has been around long enough to have made some decent money for them to be included with the scope. I ended up returning this scope and going with the Monstrum Challenger as it is the same exact same quality at a more affordable price range. ... show more

    • Nightforce quality and half the price.
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
This is on my RPR in .308 win. Due to work I use the rifle for tactical applications. I would recommend this glass to go on any match, or duty weapon.

    • Last scope you’ll ever buy
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
I’ve owned an ATACR, Vortex Razors, and Leupold Mark V’s. This scope keeps pace with them easily. Light transmission is phenomenal, the reticle is perfectly observable and elevation and windage numbers are usable starting at 8x all the way to 25x. The zero stop is easy to set while following the directions, and the turrets click audibly and tangibly. No guessing if you accidentally made one or two, you will know. I am thoroughly impressed. I heard the great reviews and thought it might have been a bunch of overhype, but this thing really does deliver the goods. After zeroing it at 200 yards right out of the box, I was able to nail a 2’x4’ target at 700 yards repeatedly with my 300 win mag no problem. If you’re aiming into the shadows, use the illumination as it’s easy to lose the super fine reticle. Definitely a large and heavy scope and the numbers on the turrets make no excuses for those hard of sight, but you wouldn’t be choosing this scope unless it’s for a rifle you’re only going to be shooting prone. It’s a huge scope, but it’s a huge step-up from what you’re probably used to. If you’re thinking about buying this unit, in the words of Palpatine, just Dew It. ... show more

    • Much better then the SH4
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
I'm just getting into PRS22 and this is the perfect entry. I had an SH4 in MOA, and this scope in MRAD is better for PRS for two reasons. Everyone (almost) else is using MRAD, so your dope will match, but the main thing is, it's faster to dial during the stage. 1 1/2 turns out to 300 yards, rather than 2 1/2. With seconds counting, this is gold. Also, this scope is brighter and cleared than the SH4, which in PRS can matter as the targets are quit small, but the biggest upgrade is that the Eye Relief is wider, so more forgiving. This means when you're in an awkward shooting position, it is easier to look through! that is gold! The magnification is plenty, I leave mine at 13x or so most of the time for PRS. The higher mag is only good if you have time to settle in on a really small target, a long way off. In the PRS repeated process of shoot, move, dial, stabilize and shoot again, it's far easier to just set it in the middle and leave it. You can see a 4 inch plate at 300 no problem with 13x. For the money, Arken rocks, you have to pay a lot more to get a little better. Hope this helps ... show more

    • Get the EP 5 GEN 2 instead
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
It seemed to be a pretty good scope. It’s very bulky and heavy. The glass was pretty good ad the turrets. Got a bit sketchy at higher magnifications. It’s pretty nice budget optic. Wish they included a throw lever. The magnification ring is a bit stiff. I would recommend going with the new EP5 GEN 2 instead. They improvements are noticeable. ... show more

    • This optic performs like several thousand dollar offerings from the big names in optics.
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
I had heard good things about Arden from several content creators versed in long rang shooting. I had purchased a 7X35 for a large magnum caliber for a few thousand dollars, it performs well, clear glass, fine turrets and shoots well. I was in the market for something to throw on a 308 in this power range and didn't want to break the bank for this build. I went with this scope and it has really surprised me with the way it performs in this price point. The glass is clear enough, the reticule is nice for hold overs in Mil Radian, and it seems solid and holds zero. I am looking forward to stretching its legs and seeing how it does at longer ranges than just the 100 yard zeroing so far. ... show more

    • Quality at a reasonable price.
Size: 5-25X56 Style: VPR-MIL
I've used the scope on a Ruger American 308 and my Ruger PR Rimfire with very good results. I was concerned about the eye box size initially and it has not been a problem on either rifle. Easy to adjust the parallax which almost tells the distance as you make adjustments. Glass is very clear and images sharp. Red illumination is a bit weak in daylight, in cloudy or dark days it is helpful. Use the Arken scope mounts they are good quality. It is the first scope for me that is First Focal, and Mil Rad.... and I have to admit that I have been way late to the party.......I'm ordering another. ... show more
