To get us back on topic.......
I have always used Leupold scopes and have never had a problem with any of them. To be fair, I am not somebody who turns turrets either. Are they the best scope on the market? nope. Are they the worst scope on the market? nope.
Do I shoot heavy recoiling magnums? nope. Do I abuse my rifles? nope. Do I hunt with my rifles a lot? YEP.
I think with scopes it comes down to how much do you want to pay. If you want a great scope in the $250-$600 range then leupold is a fine choice. I have never owned any Leupolds in the $1000 range so maybe my opinion is irrelevant.
