[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1415238, member: 101755"] I had fallen on a rocky slope in Colorado while Mule deer hunting. Fell backwards landing directly on the scope eye piece. I had to bend the eye piece up some so the variable would work again. We found a good spot to shoot the rifle after the incident. I shot a grapefruit size rock at about three hundred yards...so all was good. Next day killed a decent little Mule deer buck at 400yds. About 3 or 4 weeks later while deer hunting in Texas got lucky while still hunting and walked up on my first ever 10pt WT buck...75yds away! 8 ugly shots later he was down. I did kill a 8pt and one doe the weekend before. Both bang flops at around 100yds. While setting up to shoot the rifle the next morning the upper section of the vertical cross hair made a upside down "J". That one incident was the only rough treatment the scope ever had. It was many years ago and the scope (3x9 32mm Weaver) was about 7 or 8 years old. [/QUOTE]
