Vapodog,
I have to agree with you on this one i've owned several tasco's over the years and i've basically never had any problems out of any of them. I have one on a 243 right now works perfect, my stepbrother has had one on his 257 WBY mag for years and it still works just as good as the day he bought it. Any of them I have ever used have always worked for their intended purpose. As a matter of fact tomorrow morning I am gonna put a tasco 2.5x10 on a 270 WSM and if it works good then it will be the scope that stays on it for good.
IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT..
and yes I've got Leopold, Nikon's, the new Weaver's etc. but I still have Tasco's and as long as they work i'm going to use them.
