Longevity with any scope is probably greatly increased if you don't throw it down mountainsides, toss it out of treestands, dive into fox holes and and use it to break your fall while your clumsy ass tumbles down a hillside. Likewise if you don't shoot 700 rounds through your lightweight .300 Win. mag. every time you go to the range. Who the fugg needs that much practice anyway ? If you do you probably just suck and aught to take up ping pong. Either that or learn how to actually hunt and get close before you shoot, rather than relying on the technology of your 2500 yard laser rangefinder and super duper, foolproof, tumble proof, dial a mile scope and .850 BC bullets to make up for your lack of stalking skill and laziness. Where the fugg does "fair chase" come into the equation these days anyway ? Is there any limit to how far you can go before it's just killing ? Crypes I bet some of these guys can't wait to get their hands on an electronic pulse phaser that will shoot over, around and through mountains to kill game 5 miles away that's only visible through their heat signature seeking, x-ray vision super scope. Dumbest post of the week..... If you gut shoot a buck at 250, because the zero retention of your scope sucks...... is that still “fair chase”? I've never gut shot a deer at 250 and have never personally made a bad shot because my rifle wasn't zero'd. On the other hand, if you can dance a fuggin jig while whistling dixie and a critter doesn't spook because you're so far away you don't register as a threat or it doesn't hear or see you then it isn't fair chase or even hunting at that point. It's just long range target shooting at live targets.

I've hunted "big country" my whole fuggin life. Unless you don't consider the Catskill park or the Adirondack park big. Abmittedly our mountains aren't as big as the rockies but they're plenty steep and covered with dense forest.

I believe zero retention is a strength of Leupold’s especially for non dialers.
Some people still believe Anna Nichole married for money, and there were WMDs in Iraq..... Still got the shovel????? Mike

Sorry, Blackheart. While I respect your experience, I've fished and hunted in your "wilderness." While the Catskills and, especially, Adirondacks are far wilder than many outdoorsmen from the West would believe, but they do NOT compare. My medium-sized Montana county alone (out of 56 counties in the state) is as large as the Catskills Forest Preserve, and the rise from the bottom of the valley to the highest peak is more than the elevation of the highest peaks in either the Catskills or Adirondacks above sea level. Only about 6000 people live in the entire county, and there are nine species of big game animals, existing from the (just as thick as the Adirondacks) riverbottoms and north-slope mountain ridges to above timberline. If you have never hunted out here (and this is by no means the wildest part of the wild west) then you have no comprehension of what the country is like.
I also know this not just because of my experience in both places, but because my wife is originally from New York, and her brother (who fancied himself a real wilderness adventurer because he'd done so much hiking and canoeing in the Adirondacks) was blown away when he visited out here the first time. As are a lot of people I've hosted from the East.

No, that is not "Big Country." See John's respons for further explaination.
