[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 2278990, member: 96226"] I send scopes all over all the time. Pack in the original box, then pad all 6 sides with packing foam or the little air pocket plastic jobbies inside another box. You want at least an inch of padding between the inner box and outer box. This helps prevent crush and impact damage during shipping. USPS is about as good as UPS or FedEx. UPS is usually the easiest for me. When you go to the UPS store don't tell them exactly what's in the box. I just say "telescope" when shipping a rifle scope. When shipping gun parts/mags/etc... I say "machined parts". All it needs is the shipping label on a box which the S&R department can provide me and the S&R department can even charge it directly to my paycheck. Since it's a regular company pickup, it's not violating any store policies. ;) [/QUOTE]
