[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 2341628, member: 69192"] I will do this when I get the scope, it is supposed to be delivered in a couple of days. I've attached a You Tube video that helped convince me to pick up this scope. I bought this scope to put on my Ruger 77/22 that I have tricked out a bit. My son has one on his Ruger 10/22 that has a Kidd barrel and a bunch of other parts that are manufactured by Volquartsen on it. He has this scope zeroed in at 100 yards and has the trajectory of the .22 long rifle ammo figured out so he can dial the scope out to hit 8 inch steel plates at 200 and 300 yards on a calm day; and....then dial the scope right back to zero again. He just ordered another Arken, 4-16MOA scope for his AR, this will be interesting. This is not what I consider a high-end scope, however for around $400 (on a special sale) I believe it is worth every penny. One thing that I did find was that 34mm scope rings for a Ruger 77/22 are like finding chicken's teeth!!! I had to purchase an adapter to install a picatinny rail into the existing integral scope bases in the receiver, and I did purchase Arken's rings. If you Google Arken Optics You Tube there's a lot of videos on these scopes. I found one You Tube video where an Arken was being installed on a Barrett rifle. This attached video is one that my son sent to me. What impressed me was how the guy in the video torture tested the adjustments at the end of the video and the scope came back to zero. For me it will be a "matter of time" before I know just how good this scope is. [CENTER][URL='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwKBTJ5DqT8']www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwKBTJ5DqT8[/URL][/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
