[QUOTE="Coldfinger, post: 1956835, member: 113278"] I was wondering if anyone has had any good scopes come unglued under moderate recoil. This scope recently became distorted and a lens is definitely loose in the objective. I was shooting a lightweight 7wsm with 180 grain Berger’s. Recoil is stout but manageable. Weighs in at 6.3 pounds minus scope. Scope is VX3LR 4.5-14-40. I’ll contact scope manufacturer tomorrow but was wondering if this happens often. I was still able to hit 200 yard gong just couldn’t tell where the edges were so it pretty much kept it’s zero. [/QUOTE]
