I think many people will do what you have already done. No need to switch until something goes wrong, but it will take some time and improvements for Leupold to regain its reputation. No amount of rhetorical nonsense will legitimize your crusade.

New guys who come in hot often get a certain kind of welcome. If you can’t stand the heat get out of the kitchen son Not the point. Who would have thought that the dork with over 30,000 posts could find a sarcastic comment and then feel the need to reply? Which brings us to Leupold sock puppet #2. Nick might have to take a break from giving tours.

You obviously got caught up in your own words. I won't embarrass you further.

Bring it.
You’ve been stumping for Leupold for weeks and now you’re teeing up for the sock puppet, no pun intended.

Okay. But I still maintain that, out of spite, the Leupold haters should all buy Tascos or Simmons scopes and mail the empty boxes to Leupold. Give me a second and I'll dig up their address.  Edited to add: Note that both these companies are owned by Bushnell.

No problem. I thought I was responding correctly. I'll use more smilies next time.

I always get a belly chuckle when I see “hunters” buying these lightweight rifles and then throwing a 2 lb scope on there. Or guys that claim to be in-shape 'hunters', whine about 8 extra ounces. I'm old and outta shape, but having a scope that is a tad weighty-er (but works) has NEVER held me back. I'm with h22 on this. I put NF SHV on all my rifles except 1 - all Kimber Montana's BTW. I've been carrying them day hunting, backpacking, hunting in mountains, east and west, and never noticed the extra 7-8 oz. I'll not trade reliability for 7-8 oz ever again. I'll be sure to shoot a bull with 8oz less antlers for the trip back to the truck to compensate. Or maybe I'll give the Gray Jays an extra handful of meat to chew on.  If you are actively holding the rifle in your hands the majority of the time, weight does make a difference. 8 ounces of pack weight is a different animal. Side note: it’s completely laughable you’re talking about reliability of equipment yet you hunt with Kimber rifles. Thats funny right there. Was I post 8 of your total count? You'll be a big hit..............

I don’t care how much commercial time they buy during The Red Green Show, Tuesday’s presentation by Leupold was laughable.

I said this on one of the many posts above : I don't think Leupold cares about the concerns of 24 Hr Campfire members. I'm not sure why.
I would have used the presentation as a PR opportunity.

You think I could call them up and ask if I could be their knight in shining armor against the cesspool that is 24HCF?
