It's a beautiful scope but... - Leupold FX-II Ultralight 2.5x20mm Rifle Scope, 1in Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

It's a beautiful scope, but the reticle was off by about 2-3 degrees. I always check the reticle before I mount the scope. It doesn't really effect the performance, but the caps will not be horizontal and perpendicular to the rifle, and I am a perfectionist when it comes to my guns. I returned it for a Steiner 1x4, which costs about twice as much. I level my scopes with a bubble level kit I have, which I could not use with a reticle that's off. The scope would have been perfect for my super light 22 rifle, and I didn't want to deal with Leupold directly trying to get the reticle corrected, which I have read in other reviews about Leupold scopes. I have an old 3x Weaver scope on a Marlin lever action 22 rifle, and it's a great all around squirrel scope that I've used on hundreds of ground squirrels shooting 22 shorts, so 2.5x would also be great for squirrels. Too bad the reticle was off, which probably wouldn't be a problem for most people.
