Or if you require long range precision something other a 6x36 with frikken dots might be a good idea.


I guess 270 shooters just aren't that tactical.






Or it seems if you require the scope to stay zeroed.....


Has nothing to do with "tactical" or not. Nor, "tactical sniper style hunting", and everything to do with optics that work. At one point nearly every rifle I owned had Leupold 6x scopes. It wasn't until the 4th or 5th died, that I finally admitted that yes, they too have issues.

Like it or not, you take jabs at those who recommend scopes that actually work, and then your recommendation broke.... In the exact way that has been stated that they go.

NO ONE would love for Leupold to get their act together more than I, but facts is facts, and the fact is the aiming system is the single most likely failure point on the rifle. I can get a scabbard that'll fit a scope with low profile turrets and a 32mm objective. Can you hit with a scope when it stops working?
