Yes, indeed. We have a couple of 1-8x Trij’s. Generally they have done well, with about 6k and 17-19k respectively. About a 1,000 rounds ago the one with the most use/abuse had the reticle start rotating. It’s now at about 30-35 degrees. Of course zero maintained and it tracks good, but not in sync with the reticle... grin. That scope took a tremendous amount of abuse in that time, and while it is unacceptable, I do think it is an isolated incident.


Having said all that, the SWFA SS 1-6x and most especially the NF 1-8x’s are real combat optics, while the Trijicon AccuPower and AccuPoints are really just well built scopes.
