Two scopes have issues and some of you are screaming the sky is falling? I suggest that Jon A's scope would have slide by the average Joe by a mile! The blob on the other one is a bad deal for sure, but I just can not believe that people are bailing out based upon "two" issues and i again will say that the canted reticle would have never been picked up by 99.9% of the shooters that purchased that scope. In either event, I am sure that Vortex will make it right. I also would guess that those that are jumping ship have never owned a Vortex product before either. Too bad. </div></div>
I think people feel that they shouldn't have to be the quality control on something they are buying, unfortunately this is not the case. Don't blame the people for bailing, blame Vortex for not being extremely precise with QC when releasing such a small number, they shot themselves in the foot if they lose business on this one. If you want to be successful in business especially the business of shooting you make damn sure that your first releases are double or triple checked. Everyone knows businesses in this industry get good or bad reputations from word of mouth from people like us.
