                What scopes are you using now?
                I'm in the market for my first longish range, higher magnification scope that won't break the bank.
                Thanks

                  Athlon Argos BTR 6-24X50...I almost never use it higher than 16 power...
                  I had the Vortex Venom on it for awhile but it was very heavy...
                  My friend has the Arken 4-16X50 on her 224 Valkyrie and
                  she loves it...

                    Thank you.
                    Do you have optical issues with the Argos at higher magnification ?
                    Is that why you run it lower power ?

                    This is one that's on my narrowed-down list of possibilities.

                      The only thing I didn't care for with the scope
                      is the eye box is very tight on 24 power other than that
                      the glass is very clear for a under $500 scope...

                            Sorry to bother you again.
                            What mounts do you use for your AR scopes ?
                            I'm looking for a good 34mm 20moa mount under $150.
                            Maybe I should start my own thread in the Optics forum
