ctsmith,
Same here and I'm not going to argue about it. Guys can use the info as they choose. I will add that I was biased, but it was in FAVOR of Leupold. Heck, every rifle I owned was topped with a Leupy. I certainly did not want to swap them all out. But alas, I had no choice.
After four Swarovski z5 5-25X52 I feel the same way. I really wanted them to work because they're so light.
