      Definitely leaning that way.

      Referencing the pic above, at 1x the Arrowhead does look better than the MTAC

        At 1x (which is where my lvpos spend most of their time) the Gov is better than the primary arms platinum scopes and the vortex razors).

        The 1x8 actually has better fov than the 1x6 arrowhead by a tiny bit for some reason

                  It's got my attention. I've been hearing good things about it. I have a better optic, but it's a 1-4x. Kinda hard to try to shoot tight groups at 100 yard with that. At least for me.
                  Partisanship is cancer. Glory to the USA, glory to Ukraine, and I hope that someday Russia is free and the normal people have a voice.

                    I really like mine and I came from a few better optics.

                      I'm only showing 21%.

                        If you compete in 3-gun, you're limited to 4X optics. With the SFP 10X Arrowhead, you have to sight in at 10X. So when you quickly throw from 1X to 4X in competition, you won't hit what you're aiming at, because you aren't allowed to crank it to 10X. That's why FFP is better IMHO.

                          Oh that makes sense. In that case 100% makes sense

                          Wonder if 6x and your own distance dope sheet solves that? Or mrad reticule (though still gotta use both at 6x)

                              Man that WLS video was freaking hilarious. Was expecting very bad things when he pulled out the shotgun and I did not realize the optic was hanging from the target dummy.

                              Anyone know if that WLS Code expires? It was posted quite awhile ago.

                                The code is still good but it's 21% now
