[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 213606, member: 4191"] Yep - I hear that, and nothing at all wrong with that recommendation James. I would have tested the rifle but this was a one day hunt and I was hunting in a National Wildlife Refuge where it is legal to hunt, but illegal to target shoot - if you can believe that. I also had my rifle wrapped in a wool blanket while travelling in the SUV for additional protection and really didn't think it landed hard enough to knock the scope's zero off. Several years ago I converted all my rifle scope bases and mounts to rather expensive and rugged tactical Picatinny-style bases and rings in the effort to avoid this very situation. Even upgraded my scopes. In this case, a 3-18X IOR scope with 35mm main tube for the extra rigidity and strength. And I still got bit in the butt... [/QUOTE]
