    Arken EP5 7- 35 .. Standing in for some Alpha Glass

    Straight off the bat ... Nightforce and Tangent have been 100% bulletproof ...never an issue. !! S&B is so so frustrating as the Glass is just superb!! ( new series) Just got a NEW S&B 5-45 High Power back and the glass is staggeringly good ! Just hope its not cursed like the new series...

    Arken EP5 7- 35 .. Standing in for some Alpha Glass

    As I have previously stated....every time an S&B goes back for repair....it's around a 3 month affair. If....and if the DNT or Arken shits itself , I ring my dealer...he sends me a new one and I have it a day or so latter..

    Arken EP5 7- 35 .. Standing in for some Alpha Glass

    Well....I originally started this thread when some of my S&B scopes ( 6-36 and 10-60 ) failed and had to be sent back to Germany for repair ( again!). Fast forward to today..... 6-36 on Desert Tech 338 Lap ...19 rounds and all of a sudden various debi appears in the scope!! On more...

    The DNT is decent optic... even in context to optics costing much much more!!!

    Rifle Scopes DNT 7-35x56 FFP Riflescopes

    Bit off topic ...but.. Interesting thing when comparing the Tangent 7-35 / ZCO 8-40 / NF 7-35 / S&B 6-36. The NF 7-35 trails at the rear.. Up to 30x the TT wins .... closely followed by S&B then ZCO ...Once you go 30x and above , you are literally splitting hairs between the 3!!

    Rifle Scopes DNT 7-35x56 FFP Riflescopes

    Having compared the DNT to the "Aussie" DNT/Arken and also the Arken with the VPR ( US) reticle ...the DNT does have slightly improved optical clarity. If anyone wants to compare...look at and object that is silhouetted with a bright background ...the "Arken" has a sort of halo effect...the DNT...

    Rifle Scopes DNT 7-35x56 FFP Riflescopes

    Had a similar reaction from several others who came out to a shoot on my range a few days ago. We had alot of glass ( some VERY pricey) in use on various rifles. All performed great.....but when it was ask the price of the DNT....a couple flat out wouldn't believe it !! They were astonished...

    As my barrel has gotten more and more wear.....it becomes harder to clean.....especially the carbon aspect.

    I usually shoot around 50-60 shots max , through my 375...then completely clean ( carbon /copper) and store with Hoppes. #9 Just shy of 2000 rounds on my factory barrel........ still less than 1/2 moa.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 5-25 vs 3-20 US at 20x

    The 5-20 US is my LEAST favourite S&B "Opticaly" .... It can be quite "milky, hazy at times....its reasonably sharp but glass wise i think its S&B,s 2nd worst scope ( just edging out the 3-27) optically. My dealer here in Aus got NEW stock of the current 5-25 PM2 revision...he is stunned how...
