[QUOTE="willfrye027, post: 2961099, member: 114992"] Clearly many of you have not read beyond the first sentence or two on the Rokslide thread. It’s not so much about a scope withstanding “torture tests”…it’s about it HOLDING ZERO. If you’re killing whitetails at 75 yards, a little shift here and there is not going to make or break the hunt. If you’re killing beyond 500 yards, it will. For those that are so confident in their favorite scope…try gently dropping it from 6-8 inches onto something soft. Compare where your bullet impacts before and after. It may surprise you. Better yet, do this but just let it ride in the back seat of your truck down a washboard road. So many scopes just cannot stay zeroed through minor bumps and bruises..even just traveling in a case. from $100 vortex’s to $1500 leupys and everything in between. It’s a shame we let the optics industry keep selling us junk. [/QUOTE]
