[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1956934, member: 1656"] Any scope can go, some brands more than others. I've had two scopes stop working, one was a cheap interim scope I was not surprised about and the other was a high end Bushnell. The cheap one had an extra piece of something appear in view and quit holding zero or tracking true. The Bushnell stopped tracking true. Unfortunately I found this up dialing elevation to shoot at a deer with a smokeless muzzleloader and it caused a poor shot. I felt the shot was solid so I quit hunting and went home to the range. The scope wouldn't move when dialed, but it would move to roughly where it was supposed to have gone after recoil of the subsequent shot. Bushnell fixed the scope and it remains in service, just not on a rifle I expect to be twisting turrets on much. [/QUOTE]
