Seems like buying another scope would be much less of a PITA.
This - you're working harder to avoid another scope, than keeping it simple with a second scope with QD rings.
I used the Leupold QR system on a couple rifles for several years.
My need was a lower rifle profile in the travel case, and the QD made sense to me.
I confirmed zero once I got the hunting destination, and wasn't off more than a click that I recall - my results with the Leupold were positive, and I think you could dial the zero for second rifle - IF you knew for 100% that the scope would not fail to be repeatable.
