[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 214703, member: 4191"] I had a black speck show up in one of my IOR 3-18x's after shooting a black bear. The next time I shot the rifle the black speck disappeared and hasn't returned again since. I'm not sure where they come from (I've been told it has something to do with etching the reticle onto one of the lenses) but these small black specs can disappear as quickly as they appear. Knocking the scope with a rubber mallet or hitting it on a phone book might dislodge the particle from the lens and you may never see it again. Or like happened with me, the next time you shoot the rifle the spec may fall off the lens and hang onto the sidewall of the scope where it will never be an issue. [/QUOTE]
