    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    I haven’t seen it before. That looks like a nice option in the mid-range. 4.5x is higher than I’d like to go for my minimum magnification on 5.56, but something like that or the MK4HD 4.5-18 on a .308 gasser makes a lot of sense

    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    Thank you! It’s weird how the hive mind has decided that a light breeze will break a Vortex scope, which I personally know not to be true. I do value a low end magnification for a 5.56 set-up, so I found a deal on a 2-10x that im planning on going with. Had I been able to use the PM feature...

    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    What do you all think of the PST Gen II 2-10? It seems like a very practical scope for a 5.56 that’s well-built. Have people generally been satisfied with the PST II lineup?

    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    I can’t front any other way! I’m glad to be here. I’m entering into my backing / ruck/ hunt era and this seems like the place to be. Hard to find any other forums that have dedicated threads for sleep systems alone

    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    That makes sense from a reliability perspective. I actually didn’t know Maven was so well regarded. It must be a brand that gets more love here. I’m strongly leaning towards the NF route. I don’t have ATACR money but I think I can pony up for the SHV!

    Tactical Tailor Malice Pack for Hunting

    Awesome analysis. This is more than the answer I was actually even expecting, so kudos to you sir! Your explanation about the pack optimizing where the heavy items sit makes a lot of sense. Some part of me thought it might have been entirely preference based, with Brits/Aussies preferring wide...

    Lightweight hunting scope? Recommendations please

    I’m new but I have a Leupold VX-R Patrol with Firedot reticle if you want to trade your Viper PST 3-15. I have tons of feedback on other sites too.

    NF SHV 4-14x, Viper PST 3-15x, or Arken EPL-4 4-16x?

    Hello there, this is my first post here. I’m a big outdoorsman with an interest in long range. I’ll also be moving to Boise in the next year and would like to fine tune my 5.56. I currently use a Leupold VX-R 3-9x40 with a TMR Firedot reticle. I love the weight and clarity, but the SFP and...
