    Bloody Hell


    I'd kick his arse if he even thought about doing that to one of my scopes........ even the cheapies.

    Good test though.

    Cheers

    @Nibblet I'd say most high end scopes would handle similar treatment and we are probably all a little overly precious with them. However, I'll not be trying it anytime soon

    Lol, maybe. Chances are slim on that happening though, as i seem to be better at buying than selling.....

    I had a super accurate / reliable 4.5-14 Nikon on my 338 win mag but one day after checking my zero it was leaning against my hallway wall while i unpacked the rest of my range gear from the ute my nephew & niece went running inside playing fools and kicked it over. End result was a bent tube ! I now have a 5.5-22 NXS that should take a bashing like the vid showed but there is no way im going to try it with mine
