[QUOTE="DartonJager, post: 1300230, member: 95733"] Well I have been reading a very large amount of posts now dating back to at least 2010 concerning Leupold's erector and canted reticle problems are as it turns out rather common. These are posts where the author sates their name and gives great detail about the issue of their scope either loosing zero, failing to adjust after turning the adjustment nobs unless the rifle is fired, or the scope adjustment seizes and wont return to zero. To make me even more worried many of these persons experienced the same problems multiple times with the same scope. The scope I am awaiting delivery of is going to be going on my most important hunts, some in the case of AZ and UT elk hunts, once in my life. Based on all this negative press about Leupolds, and there has been ALOT of it, I'm going to send the scope back when I get it. A warranty is not worth it's wait in elk droppings on a Utah mountain side 1400 miles from home. I will do what so many here advised in the first place. Will buy a SWFA SS 3-15x42, develop a cheat sheet for my stock master how to use it, and put my mind at ease. [/QUOTE]
