I always read how fast it is.
I sent back a Redfield spotting scope that stopped focusing. Just got an email back saying allow 5 weeks. That just a standard email or will it really take that long?

I think that is a standard response email. I got that or a similar one for a scope I sent in couple months ago. Had a new replacement within three weeks.

I have had one come back in 3 weeks and I have had one come back over 10 weeks. That was before covid. Probably a roll of the dice now.

I just got the same '5' week response to one I sent in. Guess we'll see. First time I've ever had to send one back.

Last time I sent something in, I got a similar email, but it was faster than that

Back when I used and had Leupold's usually under 2 months.....if your using anything more powerful than a 243 just remember with a Leupold your next shot might be its last accurate one.....

Well, they are sending me a replacement. SX-2 Alpine HD 20-60x60mm Angled. Anyone know anything about them? Mine had a little stand, hope this comes with one.

I guess I'm behind the times. I thought Leupold issued a statement saying they wouldn't work on Redfield since they were discontinued???

IMHO it took something bigger than a .243 to get em to settle. Varmint cartridges had one tapping turrets when zeroing. Have sent 4 back for warranty and the last two were quoted at 5 weeks. Got em back a week or so before that. No probs after

Very pleased with my Leupold service. 10 days from when they received mine to when it shipped back to me. Picked it up yesterday.

I sent in a scope one time the new replacment scope showed up in 3 days. I lived in Washington at the time the 4 th day I got a card in the mail saying they have received the scope and will evaluate if if it’s covered under warranty
I always found that funny
Used there warranty several times they are fast

I sent a scope in for service about 10 days ago, took 3-4 days after they received it to send the email that it would be 5-6 weeks, next day they sent email showing they are shipping a replacement. Guess im getting a new vx3hd cds zl in 2.5-8. Think it may be too short to mount on my 77 hawkeye whelen, so it’ll prolly show up in the classifieds.
