[QUOTE="CBH Australia, post: 2915296, member: 116486"] There is always a concern that a cheaper or an unreliable scope won't hold zero. I don't think think I have encountered it but People have always said it can happen. I know your example was just that but it could be it gets bumped, knocked or falls affecting the zero and that could be the difference between success or failure on a hunt so knowing it will hold up to harsh treatment beats Wondering if it will lose zero. Both Nightforce and March scopes give the scopes a fair whack in the assembly stage to be sure the parts are secure. I think Leupold have a machine they test scope models for simulated repeated recoil. Somehow we spend more money on better optics and mounts to avoid unforseen problems when in use, or in transit to it's intended use. I can't think when I've had an optic lose point of impact but I have found loose action screws to cause me poi change on 2 different rifles. [/QUOTE]
