[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 918848, member: 34084"] The main drawback I see with Redfield scopes is that they have 2-piece tubes, just like Leupold VX-1 scopes. While I believe they can be made strong, I don't believe they can be made straight. Lapping rings does no good because the two tubes aren't straight, so it's difficult to avoid stress in the tube assembly with conventional rings. If I were to buy a Redfield scope, I would use Burris Signature rings, which can hold a 2-piece tube without applying stress. [/QUOTE]
