Good morning Tim, I do know a little about alpha glass and yes I own some Alpha glass, but just like you for years I was raising a house full of kids and had obligations that kept me from considering Alpha glass. I made do just fine for years with a fixed 4X Leupold and could do that again if I needed too.
Hopefully as time goes by you will be able to experience the joy of owning and using Alpha glass, it really is nice! But until then keep having fun with your Weaver and just maybe we will run into each other chasing tree rats ~ one of my favorite pastimes.
Randy
