Nice Jim!! I'm also fond of the older Leupolds. between 4 and 6 power is all you need for most hunting.

I was hiking with my dad up a frosty canyon. He slipped and whacked his VXII leupold scope bell. We used my rifle (with a 6x36 FXII) instead for a shot on a coues buck at 250 yards. Checked his zero later on, it was off over a foot at 100 yards. So we killed a leupold scope and killed a nice buck with a leupold scope on the same hunt...but both leupolds are gone now.

I've got at least a couple thousand inches of bucks whacked with Leupy scopes. Photobucket has me held hostage, but I've posted lots of them many times here before.

Luck trumps skill any day jorge! Good going with Imgur, JG. That persistent, consistent "luck", sorta sets a trend, don't ya think... Great trophy room and great trophies. DF

Killed this one.............and all I was trying to do was use it as intended. M1 Turret isn't much good if the tracking is off by several MOA. Atleast they have a great warranty, eh?

No negatives from me on Leupold scopes. I guess I have 20 or so now and have owned and sold a similar number. Used them all across the USA, Canada and once in Africa. Had one handgun scope go bad on a 357 Maximum. It was fixed free and returned in about ten days. I’ll buy more of them.
