[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 195963, member: 704"] SDMF you have me beat I have only had about 15. What I have noticed is most of my accuracy problems have not been rifles, but scopes. Most of my Leupolds would hold inside an inch, but I get rid of rifles that will not group under 1/2 inch. Well except for those with open sights. I have no idea how they group because it's better than my old eyes will do. Someone mentioned Leupold range finder problems and now I can't find it. My son had the same problem. He had the 800 yard and if you were going to range a deer at 200 it was going to die of old age before it locked on. I drool over those Nightforce, but I shoot the best I can afford and that's Vortex. I can not complain about a scope that lets my rifle group under 1/4 inch. I guess as long as bullets keep going where I want them I'm ok with it. I may be one of those guys SDMF is talking about. :) Optimist build airplanes and pessimists build parachutes. I carry an extra scope in my pack. [/QUOTE]
