This is the first scope Ive had fail during use. Ive had ones that were defective out of the box, broke a few, but never had one actually break on me.
Bought this Nitro sfp 5-20 about a month ago, and its ridden on my 06AI the whole time. Been to the range maybe 5 or 6 times, been fired maybe 100rounds.
Had 20 rounds with me today, and fired them over a few hour period. The second to last shot it looked like the image got really wavy for a split second, and I just thought it was mirage from shooting over a small mound from prone....I didnt occur to me that the cross hairs wouldnt go all wobbly.
Fired the last shot and on closing the scope cap I noticed the chip in inside of the rear lense.
I made a video of it rattling around, and im pretty sure its the next lense in from the ocular.
So there we have it, first true scope failure Ive experienced. Now to see how bushy deals with the warranty claim. Im honestly not concerned, ive had other stuff warrantied before.
Oh still shot a 1" group just right of POA....
