[QUOTE="Gone Ballistic, post: 1849804, member: 26477"] First thing, quit using the lead sled! Not only does it transfer extreme inertia to your scope it also slams your bedding and stock. I have seen both stocks and bedding destroyed by inertia absorption. Lower priced scopes are lower priced for a reason. They aren't built to absorb high energy like Nightforce and similar other scopes are. Super high energy absorbing scopes are made with high carbon steel tubes rather than aluminum for a reason, to lock their internal components from getting loose. I think you will be money ahead to park your lead sled and save for a higher end scope. Nightforce is my choice of scopes. [/QUOTE]
