I wont rule it out but I would be very surprised. This happened on a 100 degree day with zero water around.
The scope was fine at the start of the session (put 100 rounds down the pipe of my new 223) and by the end whatever this is had happened.

Mine is in rings, pretty sure they are ARC rings.
It doesn't need to be around water for this to happen, it happened to my PMII (not that bad it was just one little speck) and they said it was bad grease, or water from bad grease leaking.
No issues with Spuhr 6001 or 6601. Both tightened to 20 in lbs.
Yes
What’s that cost?
What kind of adjustment on turrets?
Can’t say what ZCO did to the first, but the second required full replacement of the turret assembly.
Don't know need to contact them, I had some other stuff being done.
Tenebraex make´s also nice caps for the ZCO.
F3R Machine 36mm cantilevered mount with 20 MOA of tilt….. holy grail
Anyone running a 420 with ARC low rings (.94)? I have a bighorn origin action with 20moa factory rail and a proof steel savage small shank barrel. Based on my calculations it should clear by 4.5mm without caps
Also for those using ARC rings are you torquing to the recommend 55in/lbs

I did but went up slowly. First time I tried I had some binding in the parallax. Did it again going up in stages and it’s been fine since. If you are at all nervous about it, I suggest 45 in/lbs. I have run the scope w this torque w no slippage in the rings and no binding in the scope.
Oh, and I’m sure it’s just a typo but it’s in/lbs and not Ft/lbs.
Thx! Yes I caught the typo and edited it. It should be fixed now
Agree, there is no better than Aadland.
I have Tenebraex on my Trijicon scope and they are pretty good but had to go with Aadland for my ZCO840.

Having had Aadland for a while now and just grabbing a set of the ZCO branded Tene's recently, I greatly prefer Tenebraex. The material they use is much softer without sharp edges, and opens without the harsh snapping sound of hard plastic like the Aadlands do on open and close.
Aadland makes good stuff for sure, but we prefer the Tenebraex to have the option of easily removing them occasionally.
Tennebrex don’t seal up tight and aren’t durable enough for my use.
Just my experience

Tenebraex are superior, they are way less bulky, and the plastic is nicer. Also Tenebraex don't look like complete shit on the scope, the others do imo... Their purpose is to keep debris away from the lenses when the scope is not in use which they do very well.
lul indeed
Anyone in this thread transferred warranty on a ZCO? Just bought one off the PX and wondering how to get the process started once I receive it.
TIA

@Kleinotter No need to transfer any warranty. We warranty the scope itself, not just to the first user. If there's an issue or anything, just get ahold of us. Usually best to call our service number at 208-435-4000 or shoot me an email.

It might look good, when the barrelled action is also cerakoted in same color as the scope.
Thinking of doing the same to the scope mount

There has to be some contrast. I think if you cerakote the BA in the same color, you'll either need to leave the mount alone or find a different color to use on it.It might look good, when the barrelled action is also cerakoted in same color as the scope.

I prefer to break it up with some black as well.
Well, you can get the color off, if it is not looking good.
Black with some camo on, always look good.

Dustin Ellerman from The History Channel's top shot and our own @gebhardt02 have some youtube videos on the ZC527 MPCT3X. Nick also goes over the details of the scope, mounting and zeroing as well. Also some great through the scope videos to see what the MPCT3X looks like through the scope for those that have not seen it yet.

What are the butler creek cap sizes (and yes I know aadland, tenebraex and mkm are better) if anyone runs them?
Thanks for that pic, I just ordered a throw lever..
The 4GunGuy did a nice comparison video on ZCO's MPCT2 and MPCT3X, I figure it would be informative for the people that are choosing between these popular reticles. If anyone else has any questions about ZCO's feel free to give us a call at 916-670-1103

MPVO crossover???
Got in my second ZCO today, 8-40x56 MPCT3X, on deck. Now to determine if I want to go with the 7PRC build or place it on one of my other rifles. 
I know it is not popular on this site ... But I would love to see the 8-40 in MOA
Can you share the specs yet?I will show it when i have it
