Used Leupolds seem like a good deal until you send them back for repair 4 times with no positive results.
Troof. Well if you keep mounting them on POS rifles I suspect you won't see much for positive results. Those of us with good rifles do have positive results.

I just went and counted 16 leupolds that are on or were on rifles that I have shot a fair amount. .22s to Magnums. Have had quite a few more over the years. I had one VX3 CDS that stopped tracking and one that had a gas bubble or something show up inside the objective lense. It was a 6.5-20 and I used it for testing rifles as it was always reliable...even with the bubble.
For set and forget I like leupolds and really like the B&C reticle. For dial types there may be better options but my VX-5 has been very reliable...so far.
I think it is a good idea to treat any optic with a fair amount of skepticism regardless of the brand. They all produce lemons. A friend of mine had a beautiful custom .25-06 that he couldn't get to shoot even after a couple years of messing with powders, bullets, bedding jobs, blah, blah, blah. One day we were shooting it and the crosshairs went wonky in in his European scope that "couldn't possibly be the problem". He changed scopes and boom, the rifle miraculously started holding MOA or better.
