Yep, I respect my equipment but I do use it…
I’m not interested in bashing, but several brands have all experienced this. my local group here, all grew up with checking zero before season…. That says a lot right. My informal tally over the years 80% of time they are adjusting zero…. Kinda accepted it seems. “Oh well just re zero, no biggie”. Obviously scopes still function, but here’s the thing —— when exactly is it that that scope will lose zero again, 3 months later, traveling on gravel road or was it the last shot of 19 rounds to re zero…
To be as fair and balanced, I’ll bet many zero changes season to season are incompetent shooters, bad form and mechanics. I feel, again from rokslide my shooting skill has elevated more in half a year than the previous 30.
Since trusting what I’ve read here, actually reaching out to others that were so gracious to learn more than what can be typed, I’m the proud owner of many swfa now, a few credo trijicons with a NF soon I hope! I purposefully never used my case with my tikka 223 and a 1-6 hd when I went west for a week in the mountains shooting every day. God awful rutted roads, etc. Most definitely took many more minor bumps and bangs that I would have never let happen before. I was validating. I have probably shot some 4 dozen 12 shoot zeros as part of practicing this summer and trueing up my final load to 800 yds. Not once did I see a shred of evidence I needed to adjust my scope.
You seem like you have experience and expertise, I respect that. So does Form. Collaboration seems better, alternative experience shared seems better than internet challenges - for us who yearn to grow. Outside of guns and hunting i certainty do have knowledge in the manufacturing world. Now, As a consultant it stuns me to see metrics firms use for either internal performance markers or product legitimacy/marketing that cannot be truly tied to judging either.
