I bought one of the Arken EPL-4, 4-16 x 44 scopes and have tried mounting it on two different rifles in 2 different sets of rings......Warne Maxima's and Burris Extremes with the same results. When torqued to a little past hand tight, the parallax knob is stiff and catches when i turn it. When torqued to recommended specs of 18 in/lbs, the parallax won't turn at all. I have tried mounting the rings as far away from the center and closer to the center with same results. Any suggestions?
Arken EPL-4 problem?

Also check to make sure that the top of your action is level and true. You probably already have but just a thought

I would look at getting a DNZ one piece mount/rings
Dont buy their rings. Arkens are not as nice as Warne or Burris.
Get another Chinese scope. I have many Spina scopes and they are faultless. They are much cheaper than the Arken brand.

Arken has a great warranty and customer service. Send it back to them and they'll get you taken care of
