I'm sure it was just the scope.![]()
Very easy way to find out. Will take about 2 minutes at a 100 yard range…

I think that would only prove that it was off. It wouldn't prove how it happened.Very easy way to find out. Will take about 2 minutes at a 100 yard range…

Some of us have had no issues with ours, so logically there is something else going on.So logically, it moved from riding in a gun case to the mountains. Which matches up with LOTS of other people’s experiences. Including my own.

If it was on “two weeks prior” according to the OP, then went into a safe. Then came out, and was off that significantly, that’s a very untrustworthy piece of gear. OP mentioned no drops, falls, ect. So logically, it moved from riding in a gun case to the mountains. Which matches up with LOTS of other people’s experiences. Including my own.
Maybe a ghost accessed the safe and spun some knobs just for fun though…who knows.

Just to clarify. He does not beat on his gear. He takes pretty good care of it. We are both too poor to buy stuff and not take good care of it. He does not even know rokslide exists and knows nothing of drop tests.Some of us have had no issues with ours, so logically there is something else going on.
Thank the Lord. I don’t own a tikka I hunt with then.My experience says no.
Even the mighty tikka wasn't enough to overcome the curse of the golden ring.
Your mileage could vary, especially if you don't measure it, and assume.
And I’ve bought 2 NF and a trijicon scope after discovering the drop test stuff.bmart and jake...i did not say in any way there was a Form cult, only responding to Yukon's post referencing such cult...."that now he did it, he will upset said cult. I fully understand what Form is presenting to the RS crowd..it's just info that any one of us can utilize in whatever manner they choose. I've chosen to use it to try NF scopes out and see what is what. I wouldn't have done that if I thought he was full of crap or biased in any way and the data wasn't factual. I like to try things for myself before im in the "hell yeah" camp.
Not really. There are lots of variables.The LOGIC is pretty darn simple.
How is that trashing them? If they are a cult they are a cult. That doesn’t have to be a bad thing.You mention not trashing members yet you just referenced the Form cult!!![]()
I didn't see the followup though.Anyone else see the recent Backfire video about a miss at a buck this year?

Yesterday I would have bought this. Today I can’t. It may fail me.I have a low use Leupold if anyone is interested in it.
Pulled it off a gun a dozen years ago. Glass looks perfect, can't exactly remember why I took it off now, guess my memory is just fading. Been sitting on a shelf.

First treefiddy gets it.

Fwiw, use what you are comfortable with or can't break.
I trusted the words of elite military snipers when they tell me their issued leupolds failed a bunch and that I should buy something different for my hunting rifle.I’m not hurt at all. You seem hurt that most people trust the choices of pro shooters and elite military units more than they trust the word of a couple random internet guys. The “tests” here are information, but the veracity of that info is unknown. I don’t doubt some have failed. But how would we know if some of them had loose scope rings, inconsistencies in their reloads, can’t call wind from one day to the next etc…?
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.Just to clarify. He does not beat on his gear. He takes pretty good care of it. We are both too poor to buy stuff and not take good care of it. He does not even know rokslide exists and knows nothing of drop tests.
Read enough threads or watch enough YouTube. I'm not here to convince you what to do.Variables like what?
