[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 221627, member: 319"] Thanks, Norm. I would expect a very long life on your rifle, maybe forever. In fact, I'll bet if I had been bolting these things onto my 7-08 instead of the 300 I wouldn't be having any of these problems. The only second batch ones that broke I know of came on a 300 RUM and a 338 Edge. I think there's a reason for that. Nice. Let us know how you like it. I don't think I like the reticle quite as well, but otherwise they look like pretty sweet scopes. I'll bet the low light performance will be out of this world with 56mm of the best glass Zeiss makes. I don't have experience with those so I couldn't tell you. It seems to me though it's just the straight on brute force G-forces of my rifle that breaks them so easily. A factory refurb may not be a bad idea at all in this situation. Heck, you might get one of my old scopes! ;) Maybe the tech that fixed it replaced whatever broke with something stronger. [/QUOTE]
