HOWDY
I signed on to this board for the abundant experience I witnessed while reading the posts. There are a number of questions I would like to ask and the first concerns a spotting scope I purchased through the Redfield "Buy Back" program. I had a number of older Redfield rifle scopes that were pretty much used up. When I found out about the "Buy Back" program I did a deal for the Rampage Spotting Scope. I was told the glass was Japanese and the price was right. As it has turned out I cannot see .30 cal holes in the black at 200 meters. When I focus the scope the target goes off the left and not straight back into focus. I contacted Redfield and will be visiting Beaverton OR. next week. Could the fact the scope does not focus properly account for the lack of clarity at 200/M?? The Rampage is a 20/60x60 and I think it should be clearer than this. Any advise is welcome and Thanks |

Sounds like a lemon. The image should stay centered during magnification changes. That could definitely affect performance, because there is some problem in the assembly of components.
Hopefully Redfield (Leupold) takes care of you. |
