Damn scopes, all of them a pain in the butt. All they do is inflate ones ego and make them think it is ok to shoot past 200 yards at a beautiful creature, made by God for our use and responsible stewardship.

They make a rifle heavy, upset the balance and fail at the worst possible times. What good are they for putting meat on the table? Do they make us better hunters, trackers, woodsmen, outdoorsmen?

Lets puke them out of our lives. Lets become men again, providers and good hunters. guys whose sole aim is filing the freezer with meat. Lets all get a good aperture sight with a front sight that has a flat post.

Lets get real and not shoot past 200 yards. Lets forget about the 1,000 yard club, the mile club, the 2 mile club. Lets be hunters and rifle men! Lets be part of the 200 yard Club!

Sounds like a noble cause to me!

Ha ha Cub,

I am not sure at my age I am man enough for bow season. I so wish I had listened to my wife long ago and been a stealthy bow guy. Especially since almost every year a legal bull passes through my yard during hunting season!

I have much respect for bow hunters, when they don't require a "special season" for their choice of weapons............

Unable to detect sarcasm much?

Have you dropped it on a concrete floor from a 10 foot step ladder or driven over it with your truck?


🤣😂🤣 “Bulletproof” to Oldelk means literally shooting a round at Your Leupold to see if it bounces off...Failed! 😎


Don't all the turrett twisters here do the same?

Yep, they sure do...That’s why Loops, with turrets, can’t find much love here...I don’t spin, so my Leupold scopes work well for me. Thanks for playing Oldelk...😎
