But for the price Leupold wants for their VX-6, for a little more I went with Nightforce. Clarity, build quality, and ability to hold zero were important to me - and Leupold is not doing well as they used to be 25 years ago. Did my scope cost more than my rifle? Yes. But what is the point of having a scope if it doesn’t perform in the worst of conditions? And if it’s good enough for our elite military, it got my attention. And I use the basic MOA reticle, not the whiz bang Christmas tree stuff. If I can’t get within decent range of the animal, I don’t take the shot.

Perhaps one of them could be for the tactical world and the other for the hunting market. The 1-10mm scopes we have now were designed for a 4-power scope not a 10 power scope, and it shows. Put a real objective on the scope not the models we have now. 10-power is too much for a 24mm or 26mm objective.

I hear you, WYTAIL, but the simple truth is that so few people demand fixed power scopes that scope makers can't afford to build them. Overly complicated scopes are all the rage, mainly, I think, because too few users are hard core hunters and too many think they have to shoot anything they can see, regardless the distance. Many also believe they can't hit anything with less than 10X power and 30X is probably better. And if you con't have at least a 56mm objective, you won't pass enough light to see anything.

@@RonSpomerOutdoors All true. I do use a low power scope and I agree, not much of a difference. I'm just saying, I've always wanted a 1:1 scope.

I had never thought about whether parallax would be an issue with a 1:1.
@RonSpomerOutdoors9 күн бұрын
@@howlinhog Parallax is rarely an issue at low magnifications because depth of focus is naturally greater without magnification. The higher the magnification and the more distant the target, the more parallax matters. For instance, a variable 2-12X set parallax free at 150 yards will project a sharp image of targets from 150 yards to infinity, roughly, when set on 12X. Because you've dialed out all parallax, the reticle will hover perfectly over your target. But look at a target at 50 yards or 25 yards and it will be grossly out of focus. If your eye isn't perfectly entered in the scope, your shot could be well off your "aiming" point. However, being one MOA off aiming point on a critter at 25 yards (1/4-inch) rarely results in a miss. Being off one MOA at 400 yards (4-inches) could be a miss.

This is terrible! This is the opposite of what we strive for. All of our riflescopes come with a Forever Lifetime warranty with no questions asked. Send them in and we will repair or replace for you. We are sorry you had this experience and would like to make it right.

Leupold pricing is stupid. What everyday American hunter is going to pay 2 grand for a scope. A fool that buys a scope instead of paying bills. People need to stop paying for any gun accessories with stupid prices. If we stop paying stupid money, the price will drop. Brands are a fad in their marketing hipe and boils down to ripping you off. Stop buying stupid, and take care of your family .

Why didn't you show each scopes optics. Just showing a scope is stupid. Just saying.

Millionaires are not watching your show. Regular guys who hunt, want a good hunting scope. That's it. So far your opinions so far suck.

The Fulfield is definitely not a scope aimed at millionaires. I think they covered a nice range of optics in this video. I typically look for scopes in the $600 -$800 range and most of these companies have something in that range. I watch all of Ron’s videos and think he does a great job of covering the full range of prices.

Try that excuse at a mom and pop gun store trying to make a living. How many POS scopes do they have to sell and to get return customers to stay in business?

I’m not a millionaire, but I know how to save money to buy quality items. It’s easy with this one simple trick! What you do is, when you go to buy a lesser quality good, you just keep the money instead!

I've owned a lot of brands over the years including Tasco, Bushnell, B&L, Burris, Leupold and Sightron. Today I own just two brands. Swarovski and Zeiss. Quality is worth it and Leupold doesn't cut it.

@@HazardousRob didn’t say he was wrong, and, in fact, I agree with him. I’m selling my last Leupold scope right now. But just saying something sucks without providing the reasons why they suck is a poor way of providing an opinion.
