Dunno what the most over-hyped scope is, but Swarovski's ads in the 1990's convinced so many shooters that 30mm scopes transmitted more light that a lot of people still believe it.
 
The Leupold scoop-scope would have to be in there, but like the Swarovski ads the hype apparently worked. They have sold an awful lot of them, mostly Down South.

Poachers need that extra light...

"With the huskemaw optic, just dial the range, and hold for wind." Any overpaid retard willing to pay $1000 for our junk with marked turrets can shoot game out to 1000 yards with their .17 hmr." All they have to do is pay $49.99 for our stupid DVD, that teaches you nothing, and you are good to go..................Oh, and watch Best of the West."
 
Are you kidding me!!?? What a joke.
 
Invest the money in ammo, and learn to shoot..........you'd be far better off.
Nice call Chris.

I think it is a close call between Huskemaw and Countersniper scopes.  But, I'd have to give it to Countersniper, since they made up a ton of meaningless technical jargon in their ads, implied their optics are being widely used by the military, and had the gall to charge $5000 - $7000 for their scopes!
