Arken Optics EPL4 4-16x44 FFP Lightweight Hunting Rifle Scope

Excellent build quality and glass quality. It’s a little on the heavier side, but it is (in my own opinion) the best mid-range scope you can buy for less than $500, maybe even $1,000. I haven’t put it to serious heavy use or anything, it’s on my deer rifle. But the low-light visibility, ease of adjustments with the exposed turret, and illuminated reticle are second to none. Great scope, especially when paired with the Arken canted mount.

The way the appearance the value for the money, focusing a sharp really like the quality of it. Sturdy doesn’t get knocked out of alignment, and the parallax works good on focusing in on targets at different yardage.

Best bang for your buck by far. Great glass and over all quality

Great scopes. Ease of adjustment, durable, functionality is great, bright clear glass. Good size for hunting.

Fantastic scope. Highly recommended

This is a great scope it tracks very good.the glass is clear even around the edges, the clicks are very firm and precise. It’s a well made scope for the money! If your on the fence about getting one just go ahead and jump, you will be glad ya did!

I bought this scope in May from the recommendation of a friend. The glass is clear, the reticle is nice, the adjustments are great. I really liked the scope. Then I took it to Montana for a deer hunt. I took it out to the range to verify the zero setting. It was about 30° outside. Within a minute, the scope fogged up internally. My nice white target at 100 yards became a nice white blur. After sitting in the nice warm house for a few days, the scope was back to normal. I took it out again, this time it was 28° outside, the same thing happened. I have contacted Arken about this, and their first reply was to buy anti-fogging spray for the lens. I told them I know how to clean a scope it's fogged internally. I have not heard back from them. I wouldn't buy another Arken scope and plan on using it in any weather below 60° f. Update: I heard back from Arken in a few days later. I sent the scope in and within 3 weeks, I had a new scope. The glass and turrets are just as good as before. I live in California and it has not been cold enough to test it out in 30° weather yet. I plan on taking it up to the mountains at some point and sub freezing weather and seeing how it does.

The scope is great and is very accurate, only thing I don’t like is zoomed all the way in the retinal gets a red glow around it and is slightly blurry at night even after adjusting the focus
