Bushnell is doing the warranty (?) on several brands. I really liked the cheaper Simmons Aetec scope, clear sharp optics, great mechanical adjustments with that beryllium erector tube etc. So, anyway, one of mine had adjustment issues, so I sent it in. They sent it back, "Main tube has been bent, unrepairable...but, we will sell you a Bushnell something-or-other for 180 ish dollars". I'm thinking...how the hell did I bend the tube? I'm very careful with ring alignment when mounting any scope. Pissed me off, so I set the scope up on my milling machine table in precision vee blocks, trammed the scope dead true to .001" in two axis'. It ain't bent. I don't think they wanted to fix it or don't have the parts. Never again.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
