MikeHPa sometime back told me to steer clear of the cheaper Chinese/Philippine made scopes and to stick with scopes like Leupold, Burris FFII or Sightron scopes as they are better built with superior erectors etc. Yes, there are other higher dollar scopes that do as well.
Since taking that advice and for their value, I've been very pleased following his recommendations.
For my 'set it and forget it' hunting scopes, this has been great advice.
And here I thought the Burris FFII was a cheap, philippine made scope.

He could have said steer away from Chinese, Filipino and Taiwanese glass. Leupolds made in the USA in a lot of cases means assembled in the USA with sourced shït parts.
I'd like to know who doesn't use sourced parts these days. Having worked in the firearm industry for years I bet it would shock a lot of people how many "sourced" parts are used by some very highly regarded US firearm manufactures and where those parts are sourced from.. I'd have a hard time believing scope manufacturers are any different.
Of course they all source parts glass ect it’s when they pinch the supplier so fûckn tight that everything made is junk. That’s what got Leupold to its current status.
Amazing how Sticks one liners are used so often when things go south....
Yep. Tells us there are more losers around here than just the retarded gnome.
Anyone who has spent any time at all on a crew bus knows that stick did not come up with that [bleep] talking. Worlds away from your normal there are some ruff bastard that carry man cards.
Died? No no Paul. You see that elk only appears dead to the layman's eye. But since the failure rate on Leupolds is a full 100 percent it is obviously only "MOSTLY DEAD". Now if the gentleman who shot it had spend another 1500 more bucks for some alpha glass well then and only then could you rest assured that it was "ENTIRELY DEAD". I'm sure that the animal was only in a temporary state of shock and jumped up and ran off soon after the photo. Glad I could clear that up for you.
Gotta love big muley bucks! I've been addicted to them for 49 years now. Laffin' at "If I had shot either one of those I'd have to have plastic surgery to get the chit eating grin off my face" !!!!!!!
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
Well my my, wonder what I could do with one of these ultra premium scopes?? …. They sound very interesting!!
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
