Oh yeah, I will say this about Leupold. Everything I read says they'll take a scope back no matter what happens.
What a lot of folks who have never needed to send any scope back will not realize - the above statement can be made about a LOT of brands. I've owned a lot of different optics over the years, and have picked up a lot of "as is" scopes at bargain bin prices when the owner didn't realize a simple warranty call would get the product back up and running.
As a list of warranty services I have personally used, with very easy processes and satisfactory customer care, at least a list of what I can recall at midnight: Simmons, Bushnell, Vortex, Nikon, Weaver, Nightforce, Swarovski, Burris... The lifetime warranty game is pretty common. Bushnell, as one in particular, is faster than any of the others I have used, I sent my scope 2nd day on a Tuesday, received a processing notification Friday morning, received a shipping notice Tuesday, and received the replacement scope Thursday. They had emailed me a RMA, so I wasn't even out postage. Alternatively, I've had to pay shipping charges for Leupold repairs, and the times I've used them, it's taken a few weeks for processing on their end. Only Vortex has been nearly as fast as Bushnell. I've also noted that Leupold isn't as generous on "so, you dropped it down an embankment and want it repaired/replaced on our dime?" as some other companies. They took care of me, but they let me know they were going off of the books to do so - Vortex and Bushnell didn't even ask. Leupold doesn't ask questions when you send them a scope with adjustment issues - but they don't really fix it either, as tracking truth isn't their strong suit.
Guys can bang that "life time warranty" drum about Leupold, but give a read of their policy compared to other scopes on the market - it's really nothing unique to Leupold, and they really aren't even as good as many other brands.
