Not long ago I read an article about how some riflescope manufacturers are coming up with ways to use cheaper components or oversized parts while still getting them to track correctly, at least for a while...
It would seem that most people will only test tracking when the optic is new, but what happens to internals after moderate to heavy use for a year or more? Do they slip or begin to track erratically?
We need to know that we can depend on our optics more than great warrantys.
I know that we ask for a lot out of budget friendly feature rich optics, yet how good are they?
Will they fail when we need them the most?
I understand that great glass will cost more money but what are we really paying for in a scopes turret mechanicals, and who does it best?
I know there are a lot of knowledgeable members who can honestly answer some of our questions in unbiased ways.
I hope this will only help everyone improve.
