[QUOTE="Joe-boy, post: 1870857, member: 113266"] I couldn't agree more. I admit I am a bit cheap; I love to buy stuff that is better than the price suggests. But I have decided I'll never do that with the scopes or bases. Scopes are used to kill a living creature. A bad scope can cause pain, suffering and an agonizing death. I hate the feeling of looking an animal through the scope and wondering if the scope has retained zero and if the adjustments work as they should and if the bases have kept the scope where it should. I've had a ****** scope, and I promised myself I won't get there again. In my practice .22LR I have a chinese scope that has worked just fine so far, but I cannot say I trust it. However, the lack of recoil helps a bit. ...or maybe even better, European ;) Zeiss, Schmidt&Bender, Swarovski... 🥰 Edit: Accidentally listed Leupold as an European manufacturer, replaced that with S&B. Shouldn't try to be clever when not concentrating... [/QUOTE]
