Is there and where is an excel grid summary for all the optics that have passed/fail the drop test?
Good question. I would really like to see this too. Trying to decide on a scope for a new elk rifle.

Its been talked about a little and theres a few folks that took a stab at starting it, but it doesnt exist currently that Ive seen. At the moment you just have to read the threads—make sure you read through to see what was from shifting in rings vs actual loss of zero, etc.

I like reading threads but not that much. So much great info here it would be hard to organize.

Keep in mind that website businesses run on page views and creating a spreadsheet would reduce that. It’s also extra work tracking two different sources to make sure they are consistent.

No spreadsheet, but basically the list is as follows:

Any Nightforce
Any SWFA, with a Rokslide preference for the fixed 6x, 3-9HD, and 3-15
Maven RS1.2
Trijicon Tenmile and Credo. Some reports that the Huron does well, but no test that I’ve seen.
Schmidt and Bender (can’t recall the model, but supposedly they’re all pretty comparable as far as durability goes)
Generally the Bushnell LRHS/LRTS has done well, but no Rokslide drop test that I’ve seen.

This list has grown to include the Huron, Sightron 1x6 and a higher end scope I can;t recall the name of. It may have had poor glass at the highest magnification and I believe it was over $3K, but it had the reticle Form liked and passed the drop eval.
