its not "abuse" its simply testing the scope. did you watch the video I showed of NF testing procedures? They have a fixture that checks the scopes zero retention. They also check erector travel with some sort of machine. The point isn't to video abuse, but rather show the scope passing a factory test that includes simulated recoil and accuracy of adjustment. I have my own testing I conduct on every scope I mount now. I would video the view through the scope but I am not sure what people are using to do that. Here is some testing I would like to see as part of what I am talking about. this is similiar to the setup I do, I just don't know how this guy videos it.


Targetsusa.com sells something called a scope tool on their sight. You mount a scope on it and with a reference target you move the turret through its adjustments and it'll show if the adjustments are repeatable. You could set it up and dial a scope daily for a few weeks and get a feeling on its ability. Not explaining myself very well but check it out. 250 bucks. And you could do a mechanical tracking test.
