I have bought from both @gr8fuldoug and @CSTactical and both will help you with a new optic.
If it were me, I would sell the Arken on the PX, put it with the $1500, then talk to these guys.

Athlon Cronos BTR GEN2 UHD 4.5-29×56 APRS6 FFP IR MIL (or MOA if your so inclined).
Under $1500. In fact @gr8fuldoug Camera Land has one for $1299.99. Made in Japan, not China, in the same factory as Nightforce.

There are also other good options as noted above.

Calling all Hide Optics Vendors /brand list where to buy what from Commercial Supporters

Ok ty all. I’ll be getting ahold of you soon more than likely Richard
These kids are ruining the sport. They bring their good eyesight, strong back and knees, and flexibility along with the great gear that we buy them and whip our butts. Absolutely no remorse or mercy from my son who whips me repeatedly. At some point it should become elderly abuse.
Better than the Arken EP5 (Gen 1)… Hands-down go with the DNT 7-35x56. But if you want higher quality than that, but still inside your $1,500 max budget, the Burris XTR-III 5.5-30x56 is exceptional for the price.
I have owned both. I would recommend the Leupold if you really like the PR2 reticle so you have continuity between scopes. my only complaint was that the turret marks were a little close together for me. The Burris is nice but the reticle is fairly thin for me. I love its design but with my poor sight, I had to be on 20x or so to use it. The parallax on my XTR III was also VERY tight and hard to turn. There is also the issue with the dragon scale turrets. Didn’t bother me but my wife hated them. That being said, I did just pick up an XTR Pro from the PX.
I moved from
the XTR3 to the PRO as well.. The dragon scale comment is right on. The PRO is just a great scope.. I get bored and want to try new things but when I think about it, there is not much to gain from upgrading to anything over the PRO. By that I mean spending 1500 more vs the upgrade I would get. Money would be better spent on ammo and learning from that.
Thanks for the assist. Was a pleasure doing business
