[QUOTE="stalker, post: 65400, member: 863"] I had a similar experience with Nikon quite a few years ago. I went out to shoot some beavers in the spring and found that I couldn't adjust the power on my 3-9 x 50 (pre Monarch). After the weekend I called them and they said to send it in. I took it off and got it ready to send. Once I had it off, it was obvious the problem was a bent tube. Someone must have dropped it or something. So, I sent it in anyway figuring I would get a call to let me know that I was a dumb ass and bent it. Well, I did get a call but, much to my surprise, they were happy to replace it for me with a newer model. Mine was obsolete so they were going to have to replace it with a Monarch. No wonder scope prices are so high if they warranty every idiots bent tube! I love the way the scope performs and will buy no other brand no matter if they are expensive. I guess that's how you create brand loyalty and the warranty costs must be worth it. [/QUOTE]
