Anyone got an example on why running top shelf scope glass is an advantage?

Provided the scope is mechanically sound, ie, retains zero, tracks correctly, and returns to zero reliably, how could Alpha glass to top it off with be a disadvantage? That being said, if cost is a consideration, mechanical reliability is the priority. I haven’t bought what I consider to be a true Alpha glass yet. ZCO, Tangent Theta, or maybe Schmidt and Bender. If I had unlimited disposable income, would I? Absolutely. As it is, I go for the best glass I can get in a scope that has a track record for mechanical performance, at a price point I’m willing to pay.

Well said John. Seems like most that track reliably have pretty decent glass too.
From what I’ve seen, in mechanically reliable and durable scopes, it varies from very useable (SWFA) to breathtaking (Zero Compromise). Some day…
