I acquired one of the stainless 4.5-14x44 models years ago that had spent a lot of time on a gentleman’s 7mm Rem Mag. He was a one gun guy and hunted that setup all across North America. It had the bumps bruises to go with it but had never had an issue holding zero. Once I acquired it I moved it around on a few light magnums before it found its way onto a heavy barrel 22-250. That gun got bumped around chasing coyotes and prairie dogs without ever shifting zero. Aside from being a touch heavy they are a good scope.

I have had a Meopta branded version of the same scope that performed equally well but it wasn’t tested as hard.
