First time I have ever heard of that. Everyone has a lemon come off the assembly line. One example of a bad scope should not put you off. Leupolds have lifetime warranties anyway and they would make it right no problem.

How did you manage to break 8 scopes?
You do know that you're suppose to put the rifles in the cases before you thow them in the back of the truck right? [:)] |

From your postings, looks like will stick with the VarX IIIs and Mk 4's (have a couple older VarX IIs but limited adjustment range is a pain).

Whatever makes you feel better about buying shitty scopes should be fine.
BTW, should that ever happen to a Leupold scope you buy, just send it back to Leupold and you will get back a fixed and good as new Leupold scope in return. It's called a lifetime warranty, which is one of MANY reasons Leupolds cost "5 times" more. [rolleyes] |

I've been more than satisfied with EVERY Leupold scope that I've owned. I can't say the same for ANY of the lower-priced optics that I THOUGHT were a good deal when I bought them. I have a drawer full of Tasco, Simmons, BSA, etc that aren't worth mounting on a BB-gun.

I own 5 Leupolds, and have been using them for years without any trouble... One is a VariX III on a .300WM, and it's been outstanding - crystal clear, and has held it's zero, even through some abusive recoil... Another is a VariX II 2-7x33 Shotgun scope that's on an 870 - it's seen PLENTY of 3 inchers, and still works great... My others are VariX II rifle scopes - I'm sure you'll be happy with your new VariX II - I have been with mine...
I notice that you're going to use your's for a slug gun - is it a shotgun scope??? If not, then you may want to consider having the parallax adjusted accordingly - most rifle scopes are set at 150 yards, and shotgun scopes are set at 75 yards - something to consider... - georgestrings |

12 guage winchester partition gold sabots at 1900 fps in a bolt action slug gun will easily take a deer at 200 yards. That is why a 3-9 scope on a slug gun.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quoted: The loopy is going on the slug gun for a recoil test. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why?

Gonna hunt elk with a slug gun? [>:/]
Odd choice. You are getting all worked up over nothing. A display model is not indicative of the typical quality of properly cared for optics. My guess is the Leupold you handled at Bass Pro had been dropped or previously broken. |

Something you hadn't considered in your silly post, put it on the slug gun...make sure to use the heaviest recoiling loads you can, [b]if[/b] it breaks send it back to Leupold. They'll fix it so long as you didn't abuse it.
Then shoot the thing on a bolt action 50BMG or Barrett M82A1 and [b]if[/b] it breaks send it back to get fixed again. BTW, make sure you have a few Tasco's on hand to do the side-by-side tests with. Let us know how it turns out. Also, let us know who has better service and a better warranty department. [lol] |

So are you saying mounting a Loopie on a slug gun is like using a scope to hammer a nail? I will have to be more careful with the delicate Luepold. No, what I am saying is: A variable scope is the wrong scope to mount on a slug gun. and Your test method is not statistically significant. You could, "hammer a nail with it" and it would be just as valid. |

Man I work at bass pro's gun counter in springfield and yea I'm going to tell you that you will see bad scope every once in a while, it does not matter what brand however leupold will fix it. Tasco is out of business now you have to send it to bushnell and hope it's covered. If it was me I'd just stick with a good scope like Leupold, Nikon, or Burris.

-Twelve years old -Is swapped between three weapons -Over 22k rounds fired between the three, roughly 12k with the scope attached -Has spent a lot of time bouncing around in the trunk of a police cruiser -Has been dropped twice, one time on the concrete floor of a sallyport.

SHIVAN,
Jaw's fine but I'm getting tired of chinese. Im still not allowed to chew. You haven't lost your touch but I think you should get the truck from the fiance before you take off. By the way you really are an asshole only an asshole would give away a couple hundred rounds of XM193 at a shoot so two total strangers could keep shooting and only an asshole would let all comers shoot .458 socom at no charge. I wish all assholes were like you. SKSARFAL, In all seriousness if you don't like or trust the scope send me a an email with your cost on it and I'll give you a fair used price on it I can always use glass for something. My other question is if you had 5 tasco's fail why did you keep buying them, same with the simmons. "Screw me once shame on you, Screw me twice shame on me." That ring a bell? I would be real interested in how you broke that many scopes and what exactly broke on them. One scope I guess you haven't tried is a Nikon, or a Burris because both make great discount scopes. Vari-XIII features and glass on a Vari-XII price. Also a large retail store is about the worst place to buy glass at least in my experience they are the most expensive way to do it. |

Quoted: Quoted: Hmm, in three posts you have called me an asshole 2x... Hey, the truth hurts! You are so damn quick to pull out the rule book when it suits you but you could give a shit about being an ass. OOOOOO that's 3x!!!! [SLEEP] Go post another useless thread about paypal being the devil. Do you even own a Leupold? Any cogent arguments/responses to the subject matter, specifically in relation to the thread title? Didn't think so. Hmm....sounds like a [:K] Truth? When I submit the truth to you, like in the paypal threads all three of them, you get all huffy and call everybody names, then disappear, only to call me names on another thread entirely unrelated thread. You sound and look like a tortured "man". If anyone were to look up any thread you've been involved in that required solid arguments they will see you are the quick one on the trigger. Truth, I ask you again? I can point out at least two guys on this thread all by itself who can vouch for my character in real life, how about you? [:K] |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: How did I break 8 scopes? Well, not everyone just keeps safe queens! I've had four SIMMONS I've had on my hunting guns for the last 10 years. Never a failure and they are NOT safe queens. WTF do you do to them? Drop them out of your tree stands onto solid rock. BTW, Simmons has a lifetime warrenty on all their scopes also. So if you still have your broken ones send them to me so I can get some new ones for free. Simmons you say? [url=http://www.simmonsoptics.com/cs_and_cr/Customer_SVC.html]Simmons Warranty Page[/url] Here is a pertinent quote: "Repair Process: After receiving your returned product, a Simmons repair technician will evaluate your product to determine what repairs are needed [red]and whether or not your product is covered by an applicable warranty[/red]. What this line refers to to that some of their binoculars do not have a warranty. Totally taken out of context. "Simmons Outdoor Corp. guarantees your product to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for the lifetime of the [red]original purchaser.[/red]" I don't know WHERE you pulled this out of because NONE of my SIMMONS scope warrantys say this. It is for the life of the scope. You DO NOT have to prove you are the original purchaser. Send a broken SIMMONS scope to them and they send it back fixed or and new one. |

SHIVEN tries to troll by pulling out the TROLL icon. I bet nobody on this forum uses that icon more than you do. I HAVE posted pertinent info on this topic. One of these post got to expose your misinformation about SIMMONS. (I don't know shit about Loopies except that they cost a lot). Calling you an asshole is just a fringe benefit. [i]OH DAMN, that's 4x.[/i] |

[/red] Re-read my posts....I posted the pertinent quote from Simmons coverage page along with the actual link. Limited Lifetime Warranty means whatever they write out they can do or not do for a limited period of time, which is defined as the lifetime of the original owner. Now if you lie and claim to be the original owner, so be it, your next and future Simmons scopes will cost more for your moral choice. I choose to buy scopes that are covered for the lifetime of the scope, no questions asked, no warranty card needed, no proof of purchase...the scope is the bearer instrument for FULL COVERAGE -- FOR FREE. Leupold writes it out the way they actually do things. There are no case by case exceptions, there are no instances where your friend has one experience returning a Leupold scope and gets service, but your cousin returns a Leupold and has to pay for service. If you can't see the difference, which I'm sure you won't, again it's wasted effort feeding a [:K] BTW, I used paypal for a gun sale last week....I must be the devil. [dracula] [lol] Truth? [lol] |
