I went to the range today to shoot. Nice day under 90 degrees! I have the Arken Zulus 5x20 Non-LRF on my Uragan .25 (tuned by @zx10wall). It has been tuned for JSB 33.95 MKIIs and that is what I am shooting. I zeroed the gun at 30 yards first. These photos are at 50 yards with a hold over at the first reticle below the dot. I had the zoom at 20. The grouping on the large target was 10 shots. I didn't film the shots because I forgot the d!!n micro-sd card! As you can see, the shot group is decent - realizing that an old codger is shooting the gun! I did some shooting at 100 yards and the groups were at 2.5 inches... not my best but adequate and impressive for a digital scope using hold overs.
The point being that this is a very usable scope if you can range it (day or night) and have the protocol you like and use holdovers. A rangefinder of some sort is still required (IMHO) to get the distance, and then apply the holdover/under for the profile you have loaded. I hope this addresses a lot of the LRF versus non-LRF questions. That being said, I do prefer the LRF models over the non, but since I have this one and use it all the time on the Uragan, I have gotten use to it and am very comfortable shooting it in various hunting situations!
