I've pretty much gone to the dark side Greg...........haven't bought a Leupy in several years now.

Just curious Greg, 'cause you've been around the block a few times (Jordan too, or anyone else for that matter)........Given the two "camps" that Greg mentioned, what % of the hunting population fall into each category, in your opinions?

IMHO:
Set/Forget 85%
Dialers 15%


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I'd say 5 percent dial and know how and what they're doing, 5 percent have a dialing scope but don't know what they're doing with it, and 90 percent are set and forget, maybe with some sort of a ranging/hash type reticle....

No flat bill here.... no skinny jeans... 23” stainless barrel.... and a scope that works every f’n time. Yeah, I dialed it for the shot... 2.6 mils if I recall correctly.

I’ve got an old Leupold on that rifle now.... that has proven tough and reliable.... maybe I should watch some Matlock on my plastic covered couch... eat dinner at 2:30.... and send you a check for $10 on your birthday?

+1 to this JG, or maybe 85/15 with 5% really knowing what they're doing, 10% buying what they've read will work, and 90% using what they or their father/grandfather have been using for years. But the proportion of dialers to set/forget hunters seems to be increasing every year...
