You must be thinking of someone else Leonard.
I do own more Leopold, JFC, spell check on this Mac just pisses me off. Changes the correct spelling of Leopold to the wrong one every time no matter how many times I retype it. I do know how it's spelled and how to pronounce it...
Anyway... I DO own more Leu-pold than all others combined. And over all, consider them an good compromise of weight, durability, optics and mechanicals. Most of my rifles do wear them. But, it's kind of a love hate thing and I'd never count myself a "Leu-pold guy".
But hell, I've had Nightforce scopes for 20 years? Taint nothing new.

Hmm? I use a MacBook Pro, and I never noticed the spellchecker insubordinately changing Leupold? Yes, it claims it is mispelled, but I think you need to change something in your edit feature and change the "correct spelling and grammar automatic", uncheck the last box.
Anyway, Never had much to do with Nightforce, always considered them, heavy, long and overpriced, but good quality. for sure.
But, how's the customer service? That's where Leupold excells, or if it has degraded, I have no recent knowledge? I sent in a scope maybe 3-4 years ago, returned like always. Dropped it, and it was my sling that failed, the scope just took the fall.
Good hunting. El Bee

Not a clue on NF service. Never had any reason to find out.

While on the subject... Had to send one Nikon back. When after four months of zero communication it finally arrived back, it was fine. But, that one experience, with my first Nikon, was enough to assure I'd never own another one.
Had good service with Burris, as good as Leopold. That was many years ago though.

As you know, customer service is a big deal. Never owned a Nikon, but my uncle, the camera buff thinks they are way better than Canon. I disagree.
I own one Burris, it's a 6X24 that I thought would be great for chucks and squirrels. It has sat on a shelf, unmounted for probably ten years?
Good hunting. El Bee
edit: same with Kahles service: never had reason to find out?
