BB's Review of Leupold SX-1 Ventana 2 15-45x60mm Spotting Scope
This is the first Leupold product I'd like to return. I purchased the kit which includes the tripod. I have a couple issues:
1) The scope base and tripod mount don't mate well. There is a lot of play between the two and it is difficult, if not impossible, to tighten connection dow;
2) I can't focus clearly on any target past 200 yards. Anything past that is a guess.
Part of the problem here is my inexperience with spotting scopes, and my expectations were too high. I figured I could spend $350.00 and spot out to 1,000 yards. My mistake. I'm going to be eating this one.
Also, I learned there is a 45-day minimum lead time on sending stuff to Leupold for repair. Not what I expected from this fine company.
I still love Leupold, but would avoid this product.
