Yes, it happened to one unfortunate customer that had a micro burr in the area that holds his lens. ZCO changed the lens thinking that it was faulty and it happened again, so from there if that ever happens they change the complete assembly out to be on the safe side.
Or you could just not have micro-burrs
Hey it can happen to any and every man-made product, no manufacturer is 100% perfect. It's happened so little that it's only been publicly stated once. For how many we sell if it was semi-common we would know.
My tasco doesn’t have micro burrs. Enjoy your “alpha” class optics, you fools!
Can't believe it took as long as it did to reveal the only obvious answer.
I totally get what you are saying, branding is pretty tricky to navigate. One time, I took out my Nightforce ATACR at 1:00am, and it performed extremely poorly in the Night.....like, no Force at all.
But they're literally called NightForce, not DAYforce, not NightforceWithTheUseOfaClipon.
That was a real eye opener for me.
I can't shave with my gen 2, when I hold it up in the air there is no swirling air. Haven't put it in a sink of water but I'm sure it wouldn't swirl the water either. Vortex Razor is a fail at both of those things.
You should have seen my face when I realized I still had to use the COSINE of the angle to dial the correct elevation on my TANGENT Theta. I was like, 'It's literally called a Tangent Theta, this is bullshit'.
It's a crazy crazy world out there man.
This is far more entertaining than I thought it would be
You did all this for me? I'm flattered. 90% of the posts in this thread is not serious and nothing manmade is 100% without a flaw 100% of the time.
And thank you for trolling our post in the PX
What kind of reputation Steiner M7Xi scopes have in US?
Is that out of the budget?
2.9-20X50 or 4-28X56?
MSR2 and Tremor only, that G2B is a joke.

Just buy a used ATACR or S&B here from the guys here that are selling to try the TT and ZCOs. Generally get a good scope at great price. Im a S&B super freak and have only ever purchased one brand new.
I am so disappointed, 2 pages and no one asked MIL or MOA?????????
Is this still available? Do you take rolled pennies as a form of payment?
Hey now, no low balls. I know what I’ve got! It’s just as good as those high dollar optics.
Came here for the curious subject title, since I have a ZCO on the way, stayed for all the dad jokes/memes.

Feel free to buy a nightforce, then when it fails on you, You will be blamed, called an idiot and they will refuse to warranty/support it like has happened to a few members here. This will drag on for about a year, while your scope is a paperweight.
Then you get to sue them and magically, they come to the table to settle with you, but make you sign a NDA so you can't talk about it anymore.
But you can't undo things posted to the internet, so feel free to do a search. Idahospud documented all this, and even made some youtube vids about it.
No optic is perfect, but when you buy a ZCO or TT (Or even vortex for that matter) if something does go wrong, they will bend over backwards to get it fixed or replaced in a VERY short amount of time. They don't call the owner an idiot who can't use a torque wrench or blame the shop he bought it from as installing it incorrectly. They just fix it, because they understand, that is part of what you are paying for over the competition.
Every time someone mentions ZCO i can't help but think about this:
One would likely get more accurate responses asking the best manscaping techniques than which scope is best. I prefer cold showers and the rawdog method.
Same, the cold water brings it down to a manageable size. Otherwise I'm dragging a pole jack into the shower to prop it up on. The digging bar next to the shitter to break up turds already gets enough comments from guests, I don't need them asking why there's a 1/2 ton pole jack in the shower too.
Listen to this loudmouth talking like he's been doing this longer than a month of Sundays, lol. "Oh, should I buy a Nightforce?!!"
Not that he isn't an idiot, but I've been in that exact same scenario with NF when one of my almost brand new ATACR F1's failed. They tried to tell me I don't know how to focus an optic despite having another identical model with no issues and owning a dozen other NF scopes at the time and flat out refused to repair their optic that lost focus from one round to the next. The rep (Dylan) was a giant cocksucker about it. I should have been louder about it and blasted them on here when it happened but I didn't because I was trying to be nice about it to get them to maybe fix my $3K paperweight.
With that said, I called NF yesterday asking if I could buy a 30mm 4 screw ring cap because I misplaced one after trying out a bubble level cap that I ended up not liking and the rep (Tyson) was awesome and sent me one out free of charge and wouldn't even let me pay shipping costs. So I guess it's just a matter of who you get. If I have any issues with anything down the road I'm going to ask for him.
I'm giving them another shot though, I picked up a NXS 2.5-10x42 a few months back and I'm getting ready to order a NX8 4-32 T3 because nobody makes what I want and that's the closest I can get.
With your level of insults, you have earned me as a customer.
New to LR shooting? HAHAHAHA. I got cum stains older than you been shooting LR child.
Have owned EVERY major LR optic in the last 25 or so years, starting with some Super Snipers, IOR , Premeir, Leupold, USO (back when George was running the show), S&B, Hensdolt, Burris, Bushnell , Stiener both M and T, Vortex, NF, Kahles, Minox, ZCO and TT.
You know what all that experience shooting different gear leads to? Not dealing with subpar shit and buying the best stuff because the best stuff works when you need it to, the way its designed. Almost every brand listed I have had to send back for work, Some were great to deal with, some left me with a $1500 paperweight. Dealing with Val was always fun same with the morons at Leupold who couldn't make a scope that tracked to save their life at the time. Or maybe we can talk about the T5X rollout where just about everything that could go wrong, did. The only 2 I haven't had issues with or seen issues first hand, are ZCO (and until Nitequill had to send his TT back for muted clicks, which they fixed and returned to him in less than a week) and TT.
Run the optics side by side and its clear as day what the better products are. You want to run Chicom and shitty optics, shitty barrels and bullets, have at it. But no one who actually does this at a high level is fooled by your bullshit.
Go look at what guys who have been in this game for 10-20 years are running, ones still competing. They aren't running Arken & Preffered barrel blanks on a trued 700.
Yea the ones not on your lip.
I’m happy they unban your ass, you’re so dumb it’s entertaining and embarrassing at the same time. It’s weird.
Don't you have some 400 dollar chicom optics you need to shill?
I'll go with Reubenski as to knowing wtf is what. As far as Niteforce, 15 years ago, I wouldn't have one as a gift! Super bad experience with customer support. As of late, I think they've taken notice and stepped up. Fixed a buddies 30 year old BR scope free of charge. On top of that, very pleasant to deal with. I had a 5x25 F1 that got some bad pits in the objective at a real windy match. They couldn't have been better to deal with.
As far as one brand of scope winning you a match? Good luck with that. TT, ZCO, Schmidt money isn't always the answer.

It's ok that the OP won't buy a ZCO, sometimes the best isn't in reach for some. I'll however buy a 3rd when I need one.
Nope, just bought another Kahles actually. This time a $3,600 K318i for my hunting rifle. But nice try, though.
