SCOPE TRACKING TEST: 7 STEPS TO TRUTH:
1. Place a metric "truth stick" or board upright and as STRAIGHT as possible with the top edge being square (90 deg) to the line of sight of the optic.
2. Be sure the reticle (in FFP scopes being placed in the erector tube near the front of the elevation turret) of the optic is EXACTLY 25 meters from the stick. It only take a few inches of error at 25m to cause a 1% error in your reading.
3. With the optic being situated in a ROCK SOLID position, index scope to zero MRADs and aim the reticle at the top edge of the stick.
4. Verify the parallax is set PERFECTLY for this distance and that your eye is centered EXACTLY behind the scope.
5. Index 10 MRADs and view reticle placement of stick while ensuring step #4 is still being adhered to with this newly adjusted optical position. A perfectly tracking scope with place the reticle at EXACTLY 25 cm, if it is off divide how many millimeters the reticle actually travelled down the stick divided by 250mm. The resulting number will be your tracking graduation precision percentage, 100% being perfect.
6. Return to zero to verify nothing moved during the test.
7. Repeat several times to confirm test results.

Thank my God Jesus Christ for you. March on! Additionally: I bought the Arken EPL4-MOA 4-16x. But I wanted another scope and formed a list: NF, Leupold, Tract (I have one already 4-20x-MRAD), Burris, and lastly Brownell’s MPO 3-18x-MRAD 50mm 34mm(T) WT: 30.5 ounces; Brownell won. The scope sale price is $699.99 ($630.00 my cost). I will do a tracking test on both scopes using your methods. Thank you!

Good lesson Rex. I've usually just put a sticker on a box, set up at 25 yds, rifle locked in bench after zero, line up on sticker then go left 10 clicks, up 10, right 10 then down 10 and see if it reforms to true zero. I use Montstrum Tactical optics on a few rifles. They haven't let me down yet. Picking up a Weatherby 7mm-08 on Monday and putting a Monstrum G3 4-16x50 on it for hunting.

"Even night forces can be up to 1.5% off" There is error in every part of your system, from the scope and range finder, to the amount your rifle moves when you pull the trigger. This is why you dope: your dope is a record of all cumulative error. Shoot your dope and you can't miss.

Love your videos and breakdowns of scopes! I've been looking at this one and the ep5. In your opinion, for a weekend Hunter in South Georgia, and a wannabe long range shooter that will honestly only get a handful of long distance opportunities in any given year probably.... Maybe a competition or two if they're reasonably local, would it be worth the extra $130 or so to go with the ep5? I really like the lightweight of the epl and the tracking, glass, and reticle all seem really nice for under $400, but I don't have any reference points to any of the scopes' quality or feature sets. I'll be putting it on a PSA-10 budget .308 (sub $700 rifle to show kinda where I'm going to be with everything). I'm leaning toward to epl unless you have reasons why you think it would be beneficial to upgrade to the ep5. Thank you and keep it up! Love it! 👍🏼

Got their original ep4 release. Debating on if this new Ep4L is worth the upgrade. It's 32oz vs 24 oz and an illuminated center dot, original ep4 didn't have that. My rifle is a Bergara hmr wilderness 300prc, heavy boy.

Got my EPL4 4-16 bot that long ago based upon your suggestion. Despite what the naysayers and your critics state, the scope I've found is better than my VX5HD as a whole. BTW, where'd you get the camo for the scope? I need some in Strata...

Ok so did this test. I had a 1 inch defection to the right of target at 10 mil elevation. Possible cause? Scope not perfectly level to target? I used a plum bob to mark the target. Any suggestions to check?.

Reaching the edge of adjustment range within the tube will typically scew the last few mils on most 3-piece control groups.

Glass is from Japan. Scope tube made in China. Main stainless and brass guts made here I think. All assembled in USA. But what sets them apart is the superb assembly and top notch internals. I switched from Vortex which 2 failed me and I'm a life long Arken customer now.
