[QUOTE="rinodods, post: 559122, member: 12216"] Wow! Post an issue with a rifle get feedback but post an issue with an optic and get heckled. lol This could be a common issue and if nobody says a word who would find out about it? The guy had an experience and spoke up. I'm sure there will be follow up or at least there should be. This is still a fairly new product after all and still kind of hard to get. Just checked two of the PST's I have. A 4-16 and 6-24. Both show the same watery dried spots inside but only my 24x has junk coating on the inside of the lens. I noticed something the last time I had it out but forgot to check it out. Only visible on 6x most of the time but there was a large spec that was moving around as I shot last time. Now I just have a bunch of small specs clustered around the lens. I haven't been able to see any damage to the outside of the lens but I'll look again just in case. If it turns out to be internal this will be my second return. I'll agree they are quick and have great customer service but that isn't going to help my elk hunt this weekend. I really hope it is truly cosmetic Vortex will take care of it for sure. My last return was maybe a week turn around and Scott at Vortex called personally and looked over the scope while I was on the phone. It was awesome! If I remember right they paid shipping both ways like 2 day. I've loved my PST thus far and will be more than happy to let Vortex take a look again. I will of course not be so happy about getting the thing setup again and spending more cash on sending rounds downrange in the process but I'll have fun with it. [/QUOTE]
