[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1307319, member: 7999"] In my world the way this will all work out is the OP will finally settle on a scope after many sleepless nights, massive hours of research, many times of near purchase only to chicken out. What ever scope is settled on will be defective. It is just how it works. The guy that checks out a few scopes, finds the one he likes and goes to town with it, will more likely never have a problem. In the last few years I have seen failure in a Nikon, Swarovski, and a couple Nightforce. No Leupold. I am currently running a Mark 4 on my personal hunting rifle and am very happy. Appears that it made it through the poor quality of Leupold and I am lucky. I remember when I was a kid lots of guys used rifles with open sights on them and a scope with detachable rings or shoot through space under the scope to use the open sites. Reminds me of when I shot competitive archery. You could climb into a guys head during competition by talking about the equipment he was using and get him worried about it and he would shoot like crap. Some guys are really easy. To the OP....Settle on a scope and get busy, you may never get to pull the trigger. Steve [/QUOTE]
