He said $4000+ optic not $2999 (minus super secret PRS discounts).
So now let's have a look at that ZCO objective lens and let the flaming roll on.

Puts this kind of shit in perspective…. Glad she’s on the mend and congratulations.
Yikes
All joking aside. I don't understand the extreme efforts to hide the scope manufacturer. You're not here bashing them. Your posting a problem you had...and to have it happen twice is intriguing...
Dang, we had a rough go a couple months ago with our 3rd too. I'll be praying for you guys today.
Although, this is a stupid thread. OP should just send his scope with the mount back to the MFG and be done with it. Let them test away. Im sure they want to know what's going on too.
Screw the crack. That is a horrible reticle. Is it MOA or MIL ?
just kidding that sucks. Just say who it is.
Go be poor somewhere else
That's crazy, especially happening to two identical scopes.
I'm gonna go with the rings being overtorqued as the culprit. If it were a manufacturer defect, I'm sure we'd have heard about it by now from others. Or you are the most unlucky SOB and happened to get two defective scopes from a top tier manufacturer that failed in the exact same fashion.
Occam's Razor.

Is that a thing? Have Zero Compromise Optics had comprising optics?
They just repaired it the first time. Not replaced. Maybe an out of spec tube. If the rings were putting too much torque then I’d have turret, magnification or parealax adjustment issues.
Bro lemme get this straight... You have 2 teenagers and now a newborn?? Bless your dear heart you were almost in the clear

Got my ZCO sunshade in the mail when I got home from work last Thursday (April 23rd). Went to go and install it, taking my rifle out of my case, flipped open the Tenerbraex cap cover and this is what I see. What the F#CK!!! No clue what happened. Was perfectly fine when I put it away, in a...

I love my arc rings but for the love of god I wouldn’t torque them to anything above 35 in-lb. As long as your scope doesn’t slip, the minimum amount of torque is the best.
I got 4 under 6 with twins in middle Burt.... And i have an anxiety attack at the thought of starting over again lol
This thread could be half the size had you just posted those pics in the beginning lol
Posting an issue doesn’t make you a dick, had you logged on to bitch without ever giving the company a chance to make it right that wouldn’t be a different story

you heard it right. 1 is mine, 1 is my wife...divorce and remarried deal. So technically my second but 2 teenagers in the house I take care of
Glory hole at a truck stop like normal guys.
I'm sure you double checked, but you don't have like a 35mm scope in 34mm rings-right?
I don’t see how crushing the middle of the maintube would have anything to do with the ocular that spins within its own housing.
the cat is out of the bag officially lol

That's how this thread could have gone....
Ditto: I've shot literally hundreds of FTR matches plus all the testing. Fun shoots, ELR etc. I've never torqued a scope ring 1X. Snug it down. Check it often before you shoot but snug is all you need. Never had a problem.
I was thinking the same thing but as I sat here and thought about it, If the tube was flexed I suppose it could also load one side of the ocular housing and that stress may transfer to the lens. I would think you’d feel it binding though. Very curious what the manufacturer finds if the mount is shipped with it.
That might be except the ocular housing spins aft the magnification ring housing which effectively arrests any distortion of the maintube coming from the ring area.
Unless it wasn't a sacred cow brand and another brand and then the "WaRrANtY" nijas would have been posting wise ass comments.
In the alternative, maybe the OP is using scope caps that have a tensioning screw which squeezes the ocular too much?
ARC rings will be just fine with a z comp. i have 2 of them and never had an issue. Here is an old post from them.
Thanks...someone just posted that on another thread and I just saw it. Makes way more sense that the alternative that was reported.
Great search-fu.
welp.. going to take some crap for this. After more thorough look with a light… it’s not the ocular lens. It’s the lens on the objective side of the turrets. But not the outer lens. It’s a lens by the turrets.
Fuck that!
Arken for the win baby!!!
BTW, plenty of Leupold optics are not made in the good ol' US of A.
