3. Next attempt to fix = failed.
4. Just the other day I showed the problem to 2 more techs, this being the 3rd time returning the scopes. They said that the problem was likely due to the fact that the objective lenses are an assembly and the residue is inside the assembly.

I also got M1 elevation turrets added and really like the 6x42 but its a little discouraging that these scopes left the factory in the first place. And the film/residue is visible to the naked eye so no excuses for not getting them fixed the first time.

Not feeling much confidence in Leupold, but willing to give them one last shot only because I can't find another 6x I like as well. The last two techs I met really did understand the problem and hopefully we'll get this fixed.

Seems like i've heard that before.
In fact i've heard it so often that......
