I've had very good luck with the Sightron S2 3x9 mounted on a Ruger 30-06 carried afield by my son and nephew who seem never to miss a bush or tree on the trail. I cant imagine a scope that wasn't deliberately tortured going through more punishment in normal hunting. Between 100 degrees or higher for coyotes and below 0 for elk, below sea level to over 10000 Ft. and unnumbered drops and bumps it stays zeroed.
I recommended the scope to my clumsiest friend and he has had it on a little 243 for over 10 years without screwing it up - very rare for him. He thinks it is quite boring, my idea of what a hunting scope should be.
