[QUOTE="RedAllison, post: 20270, member: 3016"] apb I cant say that I have had any problems of the sort you are talking about. But to be honest I havent shot the gun on the range other than at 100 and 400 yds (+2.5" @ 100, -3.5" @ 400 with the 150grn Lazerhead). I have shot many animals in the 150-350 yard range with it (I would say the majority are in the 200-300yard range) and if it wasnt exact I didnt notice any problems. brianb that is the first time that I have actually seen someone call Swarie riflescopes "junk" and recommend Leupolds over them. I have a VariX II 3x9x40 atop my Savage smokeless muzzleloader, a VariX III 3.5x10x50 atop a 7mag Abolt and a VariX III 4.5x14x50 atop a custom 700 280. They are "good scopes" but I wouldnt personally wouldnt rate them remotely close to performing like my PVS Swarovski. But I suppose we all have our opinions. I dont move the crosshairs once sighted tho so your experience might be accurate. My scope has the target turrets and fine adjustments but I just dont bother with it. I CAN happily say that I have NEVER had to re-sight are fine tune the adjustment on this scope once it was initially sighted-in. I shot the 130X bullet load from 2000 until last summer (03) and I ALWAYS check the zero each fall before season but I NEVER had to re-adjust the Swarovski. I only moved it slightly when I changed too the 150Lazerhead and it has held since. Including the trip to WY earlier this month. Thats all the more reason I want the TDS Plex. I like a "set it and forget it" type setup vs a "dial it in" type arrangement. Sittin in a treestand and waitin on mossy horns to popout at dark isnt the time to be dialin and adjustin.
