[QUOTE="Zuma, post: 1849934, member: 60957"] I don’t believe it There is no reason why a .300 WM would “break” scopes. Especially a Vortex. I have Vortex scopes on rifles in .338 RUM and .375 H&H and these are $600+ ones, never have had a problem. I would look to the scope mounts you are using. I had a Sako that kept causing high shots after several rounds. Turned out the gunsmith used standard mounts on the Sako which has a dovetail rail. The mounts used would allow the scope to shift just enough to cause a 12” high shot at 50yds after two shots I swore up and down that the Leopold scope was faulty. It wasn’t the scope. Whatever scope you buy get the same manufacturer mounts and don’t over torque them. Good luck [/QUOTE]
