Okay, i had a little bad luck at first, but,.... - Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 Riflescope

I bought this scope in MOA because that is what I`m trained at and used to. Impressed at the scope out of the box. Mounted on an R700 in 30.06. I don`t hunt much anymore, but enjoy working up loads and making small groups on paper out to a grand.

Right off the bat, I had trouble getting this scope sighted in, I recognized that something was wrong with the erector. Called Vortex, they gave me the info for returning it, very nice and helpful fellow. Sent it in UPS, got it back in 6 days!!! He sent a letter explaining what was wrong and what they did to fix it (replaced the erector, cleaned lens, verified that the crosshairs were centered, and repurged the scope with new seals), also apologized for the problem. There were no questions asked, just send it back and we will fix or replace it. Some will say that having a problem in the first place is bad news, but I have had to send back scopes made by much more expensive companies. Vortex is top notch in their customer service and products. I have bought other Vortex scopes and will continue to do so knowing that IF, I have a problem it will be taken care of quickly without any hassle. After all, in any production manufacturing, something`s get through QC, it`s human nature. This scope has performed perfectly since the return.
