    I have one on my Axis II Precision and like it a lot. It's a very good optic up to about 20X where things start to get a little fuzzy and darker at long ranges. I stumbled on to the Arken site on Father's day and they had a 30% off sale so I got it for $339. At the regular MSRP its a good buy, at that price its really a steal. My only complaint is the eye box is extremely tight, but on a heavy, precision rifle its not a big deal since you are usually shooting prone or at a bench. The turrets are outstanding, the increments are tactile, very audible and the zero stops are a bonus on a scope in this price range.

    You're right! When I bought the gun, it had a Vortex Crossfire on it and I replaced it with the Arken, I'll post a recent pic.

    Yes it is. The Vortex was a surprise. I bought the rifle on-line and picked it it up in the store and there was no mention of a scope. The first I heard it was included was when he asked me if I wanted to have it mounted and bore sighted. I told him I had another scope for it and he said to bring it in and they'd mount it and bore sight the Arken. they did a good job, it was a lot closer than I had been getting with those laser cartridges.

    The lasers are just to get it somewhere near. But I wish you had asked here first. So many here could have shown you how to do it yourself & have it perfect.
