My brother-in-law just told me that BSA rifle scopes are much cheaper and just as high quality as leupolds.  I had a BSA on a single-cocker pellet rifle, and it did alright, but I don't know about dropping one on my 30.06.  Anybody out there tried them or a high-powered rifle under hunting conditions?

Your brother obviously knows nothing about scopes.  As I have stated before, if it were not for NC Star, BSA would be the absolute worst scope made.  Do a search on this forum for BSA and you can get some more details.

ditto, BSA sucks, as far as im concerned, BSA is the crappiest scope made, you couldnt do any worse. your freind needs to do some research before telling a friend to buy a crappy scope.

it might, and it might not... am suprised though, that the contender 6-24x50 held up for about 6 months on a remington 710 270. talk about one uncomfortable gun to shoot... bashed me in the forehead twice, i have 2 scars now. id rather shoot a 416 remington than that thing.

i have had a BSA, and it only lasted 6 months, they are crap, and i will never buy another, and anybody that does has been fooled into it.
