[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1548486, member: 71039"] I do pretty regularly with my 2 VX5HDs. Spin the elevation turrets quite a bit. I haven’t had a problem. These are my first leupolds, never drank the koolaid before these HD versions came out - they are pretty awesome. The one on my 270 wsm took a freaking beating this fall on the deer hunt. Packing out the straps on my Tenzing pack kept coming loose allowing the scope to bang on the antlers almost every step. Also slipped and fell back on it a couple times hiking through some knarly country... Got tired of stopping to tighten them, so just figured the scope would be jacked up after the 6 hour hike back to camp. Took it to the range a few days later to see what the damage was before my elk hunt and the dang thing was dead on. Maybe their old stuff was crap, all I know is these new VX5HD’s have taken a beating and keep on performing. [/QUOTE]
