    Is it all Leopolds

    Is it all Leopolds

    I don't claim to be a scope testing expert, but my guess is there is more opinion than quality assurance involved. If that isn't true, I have to wonder why Leupold doesn't do the same tests or very similar. Of course, another option is that Leupold would rather process scopes that need to be...

    So why ask what the variables are?

    Is it all Leopolds

    Read enough threads or watch enough YouTube. I'm not here to convince you what to do.

    Is it all Leopolds

    I didn't say he beat on his gear, but that doesn't mean everything is setup correctly, he has good quality rings and mounts correctly setup, etc. I'll say it again. Buy what works for you, but that doesn't mean that the gear is a problem. Maybe it is.

    Is it all Leopolds

    I didn't see the followup though. Did you see the thread a few weeks ago on here? There were lots of people that immediately blamed the scope, but it was the bedding.

    Is it all Leopolds

    Not really. There are lots of variables. Fwiw, use what you are comfortable with or can't break.

    Is it all Leopolds

    Some of us have had no issues with ours, so logically there is something else going on.

    Is it all Leopolds

    I think that would only prove that it was off. It wouldn't prove how it happened.

    Hunting property and what to look for?

    Mixing camo patterns?

    I’ve always felt mixing is good. If the goal is to not look like a human, variation has to be an advantage. That being said, I’m like most people who buy the same pattern for upper and lower bottom. I’ve also had deer walk right by me with blaze orange on, so who knows.

    First time hunting, got my buck but unsure about ammo for next year...

    Learn more about where to aim, or learn to shoot a bit better. I don’t think the ammo is the issue.

    Ammo speed BS ?

    There are actually quite a few variables. Elevation, temperature, barrel type, chambering, length, type of rifling, how clean the barrel is, etc. There are a few people that regularly test ammo on YouTube. You can check one/more of those and see what they are getting.

    Ripped them to MP3 although I have a few vehicles that can play CDs. I don't listen to that much music any more though.
