I'd sell him my Leupold for $5,000.00. I figure it is worth it. It's the only Leupold I've ever had good luck with. Damn thing is near priceless as far as I'm concerned. It weighs 11 oz's:

I have a SWFA 3-15, it's heavy but reliable. The glass reticle on the SWFA is meh.

I just put a leupold vx3 3-10 on my 6.5 PRC, it's 14.5 oz, decent glass, the adjustment range is limited but enough for hunting ranges. They run about $500.

March compact series was what I was referring.
Johnny cutting ounces seems to have escaped you at every turn.

The 6x MQ is without peer. 10yd parallax,etched reticle that jives the erector,40+ Mil's of erector travel,the inherent ability to repeat,hold zero,track and 19 ounces. Hint.

I barely have 50+ of 'em. Hint.....................

if you like a 3-12 and depending on if you define as heavy. I have had great luck with my 3-12 huskemaw. zero stop turret, decent glass, its been bounced around all over the place for 4 coyote seasons. The scope tracks perfectly in a static fixture and has been great in use.

lots of options if you're ok with a bit more power. the 4-16 zeiss v4's are great. they don't offer turrets on the 3-12 v4's

Give me the weight/reliability over some weird arsed BDC and all that crap. The "better" compromise for me would always be weight in that scenario

What would be “fun” is if the lighter weight Rupolds actually tracked and returned to zero. If they did I’d own a bunch. On the other hand my March Compact 2.5-25’s just plain work

I never had any problems with dialing Leupolds but then I alway mounted them on good rifles.

YMMV.

Yeah John, we know. There's no way a competent person could have a good rifle and tracking issues with a Leupold.

Whatever.

2 years is the best if you have to have Kyle for your spank bank. I am going to give you a bonus Jerry Miculek.

As I posted above show us the March that makes light weight.

I’ve got no dog in this fight but I’m assuming you don’t call 21 oz light weight?

I can remember the last time I even snapped a pic of one.

You could turn a bunch of 12 year olds loose with 30-30’s and the results would be the same.

Congratulations?

Besides concocting replies that don't exist and botching names of your "friends",there's ZERO in the way of Reupold "tracking","zero retention" or "repeats",which is all VERY "surprising!". Hint. Fhuqking Laughing!
