So all the talk I hear on here about the Argos Btr has peeked my interest enough to buy one. It is also my first ffp scope. Took it out to sight it in and I am very pleased with it. I did not get a chance to test tracking, but I did not have any issues with it as far as getting and holding a zero.

I also shot my best group yet out of my 700 sporter 30-06 with it. I think the extra magnification with the 6-24 over my old 4-12 helped.

The only issue I have now is that since adding the EGW 20 moa mount and the higher rings, now I need a higher cheek rest. Was tough to get comfortable prone.

I shot about 20 rounds using it, but I never did turn on the illumination, I totally forgot about it. I do like the reticle though, very clean and easy to zone in on. Just the right thickness as well.
