It is a shame when companies let there quality standards slip, I know that with my VX-6 I had to send it in for warranty work when the power ring seized on it. .
Hopefully Leupold can get the quality back up to where it was in the past because there are a lot of companies out there now want the market on glass.

Now you have me worried. I bought a VX3-i 3.5-10X40 with the windplex and put it on my 338 back in the summer last year. I will not be happy if it goes belly up on me. So far I have around 150rds on it with 200-210gr bullets not looking to break it but when I can find some 225&250gr bullets at a decent price I want to give them a try.SJB358":39ote2zt said:Not a Leupold basher but I have two of those exact scopes and my 35 Newton has crushed the innards out of one, twice and the 338 beat up the 2nd one in about 75 rounds or less. I really love everything about the scopes other than their abilities to hold zero. These were both mounted in TPS rings on Warne bases, so I wasn't having an issue with weak mounts. Kinda heartbreaking to have such a great scope not being able to take the recoil or little bit of knob turning.
