[QUOTE="Montucky Roamer, post: 2446248, member: 100692"] The test by Form is done with a proven rifle and mounting system. His action is epoxied into the stock permanently. Also, he re mounts and re tests with a proven nightforce between tests. The tests are not that extreme. They are drops at a MAX of 36" onto a SOFT pad on fairly SOFT ground. The guy is a no bullchit sort who sees 10s of thousands of rounds fired a year and a lot by himself in rough conditions and terrain. He also makes it clear that a failure on a sample of one is just that. A failure on one sample. But it can show issues in the design nonetheless. He has zero brand loyalty, only likes things that work. Others may have different priorities. I do take the tests into some consideration when considering optics and will do a few basic drop tests to build faith in my gun, mount optic system also. Again , he re tests the system in between tests with proven scope and same mounts. Anyway, it's a ton of work and I for one am happy someone is doing the work. There's a bunch of scopes that will be donated and getting tested coming up. #1- Does it HOLD zero #2 - Does it return to zero #3 - Is the tracking accurate within reason. #4- everything else Those are my priorities. Yours may differ. [/QUOTE]
