Just want to give an update; I heard from the Leupold tech this evening, he emailed me and called me. They`re sending me a replacement scope. The tech was extremely apologetic for all the delays, and their having to upgrade the scope because they don`t make that scope anymore. Unfortunately, they don`t even have the new scope in stock and cannot estimate when they might be able to ship, but of course he said ASAP. The old scope was a VariX 2or 3, 3x9, I don`t remember which and I didn`t ask. It was the silver finish and they don`t make that finish anymore either. So as it stands now, they`re going to replace that scope with a VX3 HD 3 1/2x10, and, due to all the time and hassle, they`re throwing in a new base and rings as well.
I have no idea when I`ll finally have the new scope and base and rings, but hopefully, it will be in time to get the rifle zeroed FINALLY and have ready for firearms season. It will be sporting a brand new Leupold upgraded scope, and I`m absolutely convinced that the new scope will finally have this rifle shooting as well as it possibly can.
