    I just got this scope in the mail 4 days ago and I’m heading to the range to zero it in a hour. I’m stoked to check out it’s capabilities.
  • @Dv087
    I certainly didn't mind the 45 minutes. I found it very informative, learned a lot, and definitely appreciated you taking to educate me. I currently have a Primary Arms 1-8x w/acss. Will be looking for somebody to buy it used very soon.
  • I already have one Arken, I think this one is going to be on my next AR build.
  • @plus1creator
    I had a red dot on my AR and immediately picked up this scope when I saw it. Distance changes, but the human body ratios stay pretty much constant; when I saw that the KL box works off that fact to negate the need to know distances, I was sold. Took it out to the range again today and had a great time with it. I wasn't putting overlapping rounds on target, but they'd get the job done. Got a couple bullseyes that I'm proud of. Couldn't be happier with the scope. Price, function; everything.

    I bought my first FFP horshoe dot magnified optic 20 years ago - it was the GRSC. I have been sold on them (FFP and a proper horshoe dot) since for a GP AR. I actually think the GRSC reticle is better than everything else. Unfortunately, it was never really ironed out with better than good glass. He sat on the design and wanted to do it himself, vs cobranding as Primary Arms did with the ACSS 13 years later.
  • Thank you for the video dude! Just have to wait for it to arrive in the mail
  • @tech6263
    I just learned a great deal. I need a chronograph.
  • @vman2025
    I'm a Vortex guy, but I've been looking at this scope recently. I would like to give it a shot.
  • @xxshiftlockxx
    So one thing I'm still a bit confused on that would be awesome if you could clear up for me. Where do you leave the turret set at as the zero? Once you've zero'd the scope at 50 yards, with your example your correction was +5.75 MOA. Is the "zero" where you leave the turret at the initial 50 yard zero, or is it at the now plus 5.75 MOA above your initial 50 yard zero? Second part of this question. When figuring this out for 55, 62, 77 etc. do you need to start over from scratch with each round by establishing the initial 50 yard zero with each round, find the ballistics, figure out the solution, then adjust the turret per the solution to figure out what each round is?
  • @brickhammerSS
    Would this scope work on a 45-70 single shot? Never bought a scope before. Deer no farther then 100 yards.
  • @DocTango
    41:37 although technically not a hit on steel, it’s still an average to high probability hit on a bipedal target. “Hit em low, you can't tourniquet a taint…”
  • Is this the tibrex guy shilling for arken? Like the info I guess, own the scope. The reticle is cool, the scope has a lot of issues though. Durability may be fine, havent beaten mine up. Think it will go on my 9mm leshy at the end of the day.
  • @joearledge
    If you're using 1X and you are hyper analyzing the optic, you're doing it wrong. If you are in an environment where 1X is the appropriate choice and you are that sucked in to the optic, regardless of what optic it is, your dead. Biddon aiming, both eyes open, not even really looking through the optic intentionally, more like looking past it, and send it. Works fine on standard battle rifle and 6" plates at 100. In CQB, it's like playing a video game with a HUD, but there's no respawn.
  • @JTTTTT850
    What in the actual fuck is the 300 yard holdover and why is there ZERO information addressing this anywhere
