Range, squeeze bingo at all ranges and SUB MOA 200 yd zero over and over again. It's been that simple. No reason to complicate cchhitt.

Came across another Leup that has some internal zero shift induced by recoil. Fired several 5-shot groups at 100 meters from a very accurate .308 with a Mk4 8.5-25x50 on top, followed by a Hensoldt 3-12x. Most guys would never know the Leup has an issue and would think that the rifle/ammo is simply capable of ~1 MOA precision. The fired groups were revealing. Here are a couple of sample groups that are representative:

Jordan, you obviously never tried an advanced shooter SFP Leupold, as your skill level is pretty basic.

You need to emulate the shooter in the below pic; don't forget to attach a GreyBS pic rail decal mount on that unused RH fore-end advertising rail space.

You nailed it with your succinct, snipery observation.

Every NightForce needs to be replaced by an SFP Leupold.

I got my new Leupold 4-12x40 AO back from their service dept that had tracking problems. Leupold said they noted a “side impact” and elected to replace the guts...

I didn’t take up the issue with the diagnosis of side impact even knowing the scope was NIB and never suffered any damage. Just seemed easier to say thanks.

I replaced 4-12 with a different scope. At this moment the Leupold sits in it’s return box without a home.

I’ve still got a couple Leupold Mark 4 M1’s rolling around that you’re welcome to transform into Nightforce F1’s.

I had a NF SHV 3-10x42 on the shelf. I picked it up as new for $525 off eBay.

Unfortunately, it’s the unlit Moar reticle, which to me, in this small optic is difficult to see the +. I’m making do with it...Grins

Good grief, no.

I'm less of a Leupold fan than a NF non user.

I hear ya, but that was a great price.

Us humble folk have to make do rather than shop a catalog every week ;-)

Personally, I up the carrot intake on anything less than a 50mm obj...

I haven’t developed the requisite tolerance for risk required to start running Leupolds again and they haven’t sent me any gratis. So, no.

That's the most delicately put truth I've heard all day from anyone, kingston.

If Leupold’s listening, I’d take it as a gesture of good will, if you’d fire whoever’s responsible for designing your website.
