[QUOTE="CGHunter, post: 2390660, member: 120955"] Yes I had this happen once !! I missed the biggest bull of my life a monster 7x8. I had a vortex viper $1200 scope at the time. Once I figured out it was the scope I used a buddies gun after that. Long story shorter vortex said there was something loose inside the scope and told me it was all fixed I asked them if what they found wrong with the scope could cause accuracy issues they respond with, there are lots of things that cause accuracy issues ! I responded with this is a custom built gun with custom hand loads and still to this day have been the most accurate custom gun that this gun company has built yet it shoots hole threw hole ! I realized at that moment I would never be a vortex guy again! A friend of mine was using NightForce scopes he sold me a used one he had NXS 8-32x56 this scope has hit the deck hard 3 different times with me and i always check 0 after a hard fall and I’m that scope has never been off ! I’m a true believer in NightForce products that scope has never had to go back to NF never been off zero it’s been on 3 different guns and killed 2 mule deer and 2 bull elk . I say that has been one of the best investments iv ever bought! Life time Warrantys don’t mean **** out in the field ! [/QUOTE]
