[QUOTE="Rum River, post: 1771920, member: 16869"] OP: Like others have replied, those impacts don't sound too bad. The one on the tree branch might not even equal your recoil. Trust....but verify. Over twenty years ago foolishly loaned out a deer rifle. All 200+ pounds of my cousin came down on a VX-II Leupold on a boulder hard enough to deeply gouge the metal, still held zero. A VX-III Leupold on an elk trip fell 90 degrees onto hard ground three times (insert very long story about poor gun racks and elk outfitter here) plus 20 miles on horseback and still held zero.
