I’ve been using this scope for over a decade.

I originally selected it based on “ease of use” as described by users - the eyebox was described as being rather generous then.

I’m thinking of getting a newer model, but can’t really justify doing so beyond having this itch for a new toy.

How does it stack up compared to the newer models?

From Wikipedia because the news sources are sketchy:

“In April 2025, it was announced that Colossal Biosciences used cloning and gene-editing to birth three genetically modified wolf pups, six-month-old males Romulus and Remus and two-month-old female Khaleesi. In-house scientists at Colossal analyzed the dire wolf genome, extracted from two ancient samples – a 13,000-year-old tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone. After comparing the genomes of gray wolves and dire wolves to identify the genetic differences responsible for the dire wolf’s distinctive features, Colossal made edits to the genetic code of the gray wolf to replicate those traits. Domestic dogs were used as surrogate mothers for the pups.[115][116][117] Colossal claims that these minor genetic modifications effectively revive dire wolves as a species, though "no ancient dire wolf DNA was actually spliced into the gray wolf's genome".[115]
Overall, the work was less invasive than the typical cloning process. EPC cells were first isolated from gray wolf blood samples before scientists rewrote 14 key genes in the cell’s nucleus to express 20 traits claimed to represent the dire wolf phenotype. Colossal scientists produced 45 engineered ova, which developed into embryos and inserted into the wombs of two surrogate hound mixes. One embryo in each surrogate mother took hold, and Romulus and Remus were born in October 2024 after 65 days of gestation. The scheduled cesarean section procedure was repeated with a third surrogate, who birthed Khaleesi.“



The gist is that an extinct species of wolf has been brought back… sort of. The Dire Wolf died out about 10,000 years ago.

Biogenetics firm has edited Gray Wolf DNA to supposedly match it to the Dire wolf and three pups have been born.

Jurassic Park stuff right here.

The science is interesting. But the ethical questions… well, read (don’t watch) Jurassic Park and realize that it’s also an ethical Pandora’s box.

Is this a great thing? We could bring back the passenger pigeon… the Mammoth and the sabertooth tiger! Even the Moa… for those who can’t figure out mils.

But should we? Do we need to replace the things we killed off before we were so enlightened and hunted them to extinction? Or did nature select them out for reasons other than Ug and Zog inventing the atlatl…

When do we start with the genetically edited human babies? Designer blonde blue-eyed Einstein’s…. Replicants with excellent “Tears in the rain” monologues? Or grown as sex slaves (because sex and porn are always the killer app/driver for new technology… really)

Personally, I’d love to adopt a sabertooth tiger! Can we order them soon?

No answers… just more questions than I can even think up. Just the sort of thing for the Pit to examine in our normal, rational and generally hilarious way.

Carry on!!!

wtf is your issue ?


My threads he’s posting in



I’m gonna withhold commenting on how you look to see if someone else is trying to mimic my account or something

New to the 300 PRC and looking for some input on powder / bullet combinations.

First of all, got a 20in short barrel. Purpose is mostly hunting. I was planning on using N570, keep it simple - have that here for the 375 cheytac anyway. Will be shot supressed.

My thought process so far is to go with bullets on the heavier side, ordered some 220gr ELDX for the slower burn rate of the powder. Have some 178gr ELDX here but not sure I even want to bother developing a load for those.

Maybe someone here has experience with a short barrel or even with 20in and N570 that you are willing to share? Thanks in advance!

Well, I was gonna load 62gr gold dots as a defense round and thier cheaper since I can get 55gr bulk ammo and both shoot poi closely.
But I'm no wondering if some of the 69 75 or 77 gr surplus stuff would be better suited for both uses?
Can anyone chime in on the performance of the higher gr bulk/surplus ammo.
Not sure if this was right forum, but it does regard reloading so...

Looking for some 1.450" 375 or 338 blanks, please let me know what ya got.

Reaching out to the Hide since S&B isn’t open until Monday. I’ve got a 6-36 w/ DTII+ turrets and went to set my zero stop for the first time and the elevation turret still moves/adjusts. I loosened the set screws, dialed down 10.2 mil’s to 0, retightened them and then it shot 10.2 mil’s low. Am I missing something? The windage zeroed just fine.

What's the concensus on Proof SS competition contour prefits?
The price is good I'm just curious how guys are liking them, and do they last as long as say Benchmark or Bartlein?

I am done with my review of the Tract Toric 4-25x50 and now it is just collecting dust in my safe. It might as well go to someone who would be using it.

I think there are faint ring marks from the Era-tac mount, but aside from that it is in excellent condition.

$1100 shipped within CONUS. SOLD

Title pretty much says it: my Arken SH4J 6-24 lasted about 400 rounds on a 308 bolt gun before starting to fail.

Initial indication was "known good" match grade ammo starting to open up from typical 0.5moa groups to 1.5moa with lots of random flyers. In addition, 0.1mil adjustments to the turrets resulted in actual POA shift of 0.5mils.

I initially checked all torques specs and retested with the same result. When I swapped out the scope itself, my typical accuracy immediately returned. I have concluded that the scope is the issue and am now working to return the scope for replacement under warranty.

Hopefully I will update with a positive experience with Arken customer service. I have already noticed they don't post a phone number and they don seem to have a specific site or email for returns. I did request a RMA yesterday and am awaiting a response.
