[QUOTE="Onehorse, post: 2389267, member: 121423"] I have been hunting for sixty years and have taken a few falls - can't remember just dropping a rifle, but I have slipped on ice, tripped on different obstacles and taken rolls in the snow. Once, when I wasn't paying attention, I stepped into a badger hole up to my crotch and absolutely slammed my rifle and scope into the ground. Maybe I have been lucky, but in all that time, I have never had a scope get knocked out of alignment. Maybe that's because I have ways bought the best scopes that I could afford - (mostly Leupolds). Good luck with your new rifle and setup. P.S. I would advise to forget about the iron sights: You are either building a nice light mountain rifle or you are not! [/QUOTE]
