GPO scopes

[snowplow]

Hey guys I'm looking at scopes and am trying to figure out what to do with the GPO stuff. I can't really find any in depth reviews or comparisons. The few basic reviews I've seen say they're really nice but that doesn't actually say much.

I have my eyes on an arken ep5 or an athlon helos BTR Gen 2. Is it in this same tier? Can any of you guys elaborate on how it might compare?

Which GPO series are you looking at?

I was looking at the Centuri 3-18x44i. I'm just trying to figure out how these fit into the typical line up of arken athlon vortex etc.

We think you'll find the Centuri's to a unique and high quality scope that is priced below what you'd expect

Doug hooked me up with one of their 3-9x40i. Very impressed for the $$$. Good glass and tracks true.

How does this compare with the Arken EP5 scope

The GPO is a more refined, lighter weight scope. The Arken is more robust

Never got behind an Arken, but I'd listen to Doug. He probably has both side by side as we speak.

I equate my GPO 3-9x40i to the Zeiss Conquest or Meopta scopes but with better tracking.

I got GPO spotter for the reticle from Doug. I have been pleasantly suprised by the glass. He said I would be and he is right.

I’m very intrigued by the Centuri Super Compact lineup. I just worry about durability and tracking.
