So far, quite impressed with the Arrowhead. Noticeably better glass than the Strike Eagle, I like the BDC better, the illum controls are better, the illum is bright enough on max for Florida summer, the locking turrets are nice (though I'll only use them to zero since this is a BDC scope), eye relief is more forgiving at 10x than the SE was at 8x. It is heavier, and about an inch longer, neither one an issue for me, and switching to the very light Aero SPR mount made the entire package weigh the same as the SE and chunky Brownells/Warne mount.
There is no diopter adjustment though, so that could be an issue for some folks, but even with my presbyopic eyes, the reticle is clear. I did need to use the diopter on the SE to sharpen up the numbers on the reticle, but since the Arrowhead has no numbers, just lines, dots and chevrons, no big deal.
EDIT: There IS a diopter adjustment, it was just so stiff from the factory that I thought it was just decorative knurling. Once I broke it free with some serious elbow grease, it now spins fairly easily. YMMV.
