I would trust one just as much as a Leupold,which is to say it will likely be fine in a set and forget mode,but I wouldn't expect to dial back and forth for targets.

For a dialing scope,I think the 3-9 SWFA at 19 ounces is about as light as you can find with ultimate reliability in tracking as the top criteria. One of the Nightforce straight tube scopes would be the lightest at 17 ounces. Personally,I am very interested in getting my hands on the new NF 1-8 NX8. At 17 ounces it would make a great mid range hunting scope if it's decent in low light.
