Re: Scope Reccomendation: Leupold's

Once again, I bring up tracking as its as imoportant if not more than glass quality. Also as a means of a quantitative test. Much as a resolution test would be rather than your subjective "testing".

On rangefinders, it's a much different thing altogether.

The only thing that keeps me from getting any more Leupolds is the huge variance in eye-relief as you go through the scope's magnification range. (This holds true for every variable Leupold makes save a couple of the newest, most expensive offerings.)

Their 6.5-20 (any flavor), for example, goes from 5.0" @ 6.5x to 3.7" at 20x. So that's moving 1.3" on your stock if you actually want to use the full magnification range of the scope.

Accuracy is about consistency. There ain't no way moving back and forth on your stock an inch or more is going to help you with consistency.

i absoultly agree that tracking is more important than glass quality on most rifles. on a muzzleloader in indiana whitetail country you dont dial much shooting 200 yards
