Anybody have either the arken bubble level or the vortex lo-pro? Looking for something simple to put on a few rifles with minimal clearance.

Per both manufacturers, the tilt tolerance is less than half a degree, so good enough for my distances. Mostly wondering about build quality between the two.

the vortex ones are a little better made and won't scratch/mar your scope.

I've had one arken level and it would scratch the scope body at the joint once tightened. Otherwise it functioned the same as the vortex ones I have
