Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Whats replacing your Leupolds?

I quit buying Leupold after 2 failures of then top of the line LPS. I started buying Zeus Conquest and later migrated to Swarovski. I also have and like a Trijicon Accupoint

More Leupolds.

Sold some extra Leupolds but didn't replace them per se. Bought one Burris Fullfield II 3-9x40 just to try it and liked it, if I need another set and forget variable I'll probably go with those. Bought some fixed power SWFA SS 30mm scopes for dialing.

I’ve not replaced any of the about 20 leupolds I own. Have bought a few Zeiss the last year. Both the leupolds and Zeiss work well for me.

Nightforce 2.5-10x32 and 42's and SWFA 3-9x42's.

I still have 4 1" tube Leupold tacticals. A couple of Vari-XIII 3.5-10's and a couple VXII 3-9's with target turrets. I like them and they are dependable.

LRHS/LRTS's here.... Only 2 leupolds left, and one is going to be sold soon....

I have a number of Leupolds but haven't bought any for a few years. More recent purchases include Burris and SWFA.

More Leupolds, and I own Zeiss, Swaroskvi and S&B.

I still buy and use Leupolds. When I can't find a model I'm looking for, I'll try to find a 1980's vintage Redfield or Burris. Most of my rifles are older and have polished, blued steel. I prefer the look of a blued rifle scope on them, rather than the dull, matte finish on 99% of the scores manufactured today. I've never had a problem with a scope of any of these 3 companies.

I still have a few, but have replaced many of them with Swarovski.

Wasn’t there something on the Fire about Nikon getting out of the riflescope business.

Or did I dream that? May be a good idea to do a search before going too far in that direction.

I've owned nothing but Leupold Vari-XII's since 1974, never had a problem with any of them.

With the exception of a couple red dots, every scope that I have is a Leupold. I expect it to stay that way.

Nightforce NXS's, have a few SWFA SS's on the less used rifles. Only one Leopold fixed 4x remains on a kid's .22lr.

Nothing..

I'm liking Zeiss V4 and V6 scopes.

Zeiss and Meopta work for me.

I didn't know they were missing.

I'll never replace them....there's no reason to.

Been using them (Leupold scopes and other optics!) with great success, and to an EXTREME amount, since 1965!
NOTHING is replacing my go to Leupold Rifle scopes, spotting scopes, binoculars and compass's!
PERIOD!
I give as much respect to the few Leupold bashers on this site as I do to lawn fudge.
In fact, I had a great trip to the range today, with a Leupold scoped Rifle.
Long live Leupold & Stevens - a fine AMERICAN Company.
