I have (50) Leupolds and only (1) failure. That was my fault for building a cantilevered [diving board] scope base that shook the reticle out. Leupold sent me a new scope.
Clark,
Since you’re a records-keeping kind of guy, how many rounds are on most of those scopes? I’m curious because you seem to be constantly building rifles and said that you own hundreds, so it’s unlikely that you are able to rack up the round count on individual rifles. Nothing wrong with that, but builders/collectors would be expected to have far fewer scope failures than shooters/hunters, simply due to exposing individual scopes to less cumulative hard use and recoil.
