I've been reading about all of the chitty scopes in various forums here on the 'Fire over the past week or two. Even if I came to the conclusion that you are correct, and that many/most commonly used hunting scopes are junk, what can I do about it?

I have several rifles between me and my teenage son that would need to be re-scoped. If the only good scopes cost upwards of $2,000 or more each, I would need to remortgage my house in order to put good scopes on my rifles. I don't think that I, or most other hunters with middle-class incomes, are going to do that.

What would you suggest? I think I'll just bury my head in the sand and stick with what I have....
