From what I can see, Arken does not have mil dot. They have mil for which is a Christmas tree ranging reticle. Same, as far as I can see, for Athlon.

I apologize. Athlon was one of the scopes that also makes a MIL dot or Duplex style reticle.
I've not used Athlon before... Your thoughts regarding their quality?

What... wait a minute. I'm still at the seven yard line trying to figure out which type of ammo goes in which gun? When you find the time can you please explain this too, and why was this not in Part 1?
I think I got this figured out. I found .22 LR ammo to use, and a rifle marked "22 LR", that must be (Long Range) right? The first shot didn't hit the target at 7 yards so I took the bolt out like the other guy said and adjust the scope accordingly.
Since there was only a 4" steel target @ 174 yards I found this cool App called "ABmobile" for .22's and it helped a lot in figuring out the adjustments to the turrets. I know you said not to use the dial method, but this seemed simple enough to do since I have that option with my scope using a 7 yard zero.
It seems to be accurate enough, but what do I know..... I'm just a hermit waiting for the snow to melt with nothing better to do today.

It's 'Just as good" as a lot of scopes out there. S@B, Nightfarce..... stuff like that.
From what I've read here its not as good as an Arkan.
But it's awesome as long as I do my part.
