Over the last few years i have been seeing countless threads stating how over priced luepold scopes are and how everyone has not only caught up to them in the quality department but have often surpassed them in the $$$ for value catagory.
To this I have ALWAYS replied that yes scope makers like Nikkon and Bushnell now make scopes on parr with Leupold. BUT when you factor in leupolds second to none C/S and warranty and then add that ontop of their near bomb proof scopes coupled with you are helping keep American jobs in America, you simply can not prove to me that ANY scope barr none in Leupold price range will do anything for you any better in a hunting situation than leupold will or some how magickly turn an unmakable shot with a Leupold scope into a makable one by using some other scope brand, its just that truethfully simple.
I own seven VariX-IIs that have flawlessly with stood dozens of hard hunting trips 100s opon 100s, and some scopes 1000+ rounds of hard kicking magnum recoiling rounds all with no failures what so ever. Im sure the same can and have been be said of other makes of scopes. But after all my years of perfect experiences with leupold products, it would be just plane stupid to risk going to another scope maker. I mean if it wont do anything any better for me than leupold why on earth should I switch?
