Haha, ok. When I submit my peer reviewed paper to Scientific American on zero retention in hunting rifles, I’ll ensure to remove the human element.

Until then, I will keep shooting with my friends and family on Sundays… I’ll just make sure they don’t talk while I’m shooting since it’s really serious business to shoot my A-game 100% of the time, right from the start with zero warm up so I can post on the internet.

You do realize that even including my first 5 round group (the low one, before I adjusted my bags better) is still 1.87 MOA for 14 shots right? With 50% of those in a 1 MOA center. I don’t see ball busting in the “post your 10 round Tikka group thread” to those shooting 1.5 MOA 10 round groups.

Again, if I switched targets from first group to second, no one would be saying anything… then again, it is a Leupold thread, so if all shots weren’t one hole, it would be zero shift.
So the OP goes on Rokslide to tell a cool story about his new rifle and his elk hunt. And what happens?

He gets dragged into the nutty “Leupold is junk” thread.

That’ll teach him to start a thread!

If OP had posted a thread is titled "cool story about my new rifle and elk hunt" in the elk subforum instead of "Leupold whatever review" in the optics subforum it would have been a totally different thread.

I don't get why people get so emotional about this. Nobody is saying you're never going to hit an animal or that you can't hunt successfully with a Leupold, but when you go deep down the rabbit hole there's more to the story.

Unfortunately for many, finding yourself in conversations in the optics section of an online hunting forum is deep enough down the rabbit hole to hear the chatter whether or not you're open to it.

I’ve been guilty of this too, but you’re failing at reading comprehension here.
