from what i heard they are like a nicer Vortex Diamondback , never tried them myself but if its true they are worth their 700 price tag

edit : talking about the EP5

You're comparing 2 totally different classes of glass.... The Mark 4 is WAY lighter and has better glass for sure (I was able to compare side by side with my Match Pro last summer) .... but the EP5 which I have owned, is pretty much the same as the Bushnell Match Pro ED (which I also own) - from a "value" point of view, the Mark 4 is about 4X the cost... and not 4X's better quality. The EP5 / Match Pro / DNT "The One" (newer release of the EP5) are all excellent glass out to about 600 - 800 Yards... anything else, you'll be wanting to spend some more $$ - saying that, they are also chunkier than the Mark 4, so a lot will depend on your application. These are not ideal for hunting only (weight and exposed turrets) , but NRL22 / ORPS / PRS Rimfire disciplines, they hit the ball out of the part.

I've had both.... it's close on glass quality, but the win goes to Arken for turrets and price.

I had these back to back last week as well - sobering! I like the Arken/DNTs more than all my other sub $1800 scopes to be frank. I keep waiting for some catastrophic failure to bring me back to reality...
