Arken SH4

[flintstone]

Hello, All.

I just purchased an Arken 4-14x SH4 for my Savage 10 heavy barrel. It is a mil/mil scope. I have never used a scope with mils, so I am looking for information on how to understand and use a miliradian scope with 1/10 mil turrets. I used the search function on this forum but really didn't find the info I need. Does anyone have any suggestions for me on where to find info on mil/mil scopes and their use? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
flintstone

And this, if you are going for formal information.

Once you learn mils, you'll realize it's no different than using MOA just different measurements.

How do you like the scope? I picked one up and put it on my 10/22. Great little scope for the money.

I have one on a 6.5 swede. Have only gotten the gun lined up at 100yds. The turrets to me are crisp as can be and seems to track like it is supposed to. Not crazy about the eye relief, but for what i paid for the scope, thats to be expected, id also heard some people say the side focus wasnt very good or felt spongy/or too tight on adjustment, but mines not bad.

I picked up two of the SH4 6-24's in MOA. They are all of a Vortex razor at 1/4 of the price. They are going to go big!

I have one on the way, hows the scope holding up? Curious on if you know what size flip caps to use?

FYSA, I ask them where their scopes are made, and below is their answer ...

He has a point. I image most people visiting this site and replying with a cell phone are doing so with a cell made in China but that's alright. Just not optics. Cracks me up.

If your comment is directed to me, I never said anything bad about the scope. If you are happy with it, that is all it matters. There is no need to be sarcastic. My initial query response from Arken was not clear (see below). But as you can see, only the lens on the EP-4 line as indicated in #12 is made in Japan. I am still considering their EP-4 line.

BTW, if I choose products made in America vs. made in China, I will definitely pick one from the good ole USA.
