All or almost all ridiculous over-large big "pipes" that gross out the top of a decent rifle.

Funny how so many guys waffle on about how light a "mountain" or "backpacking" rifle must be, but usually put on some bazooka sized scope on top of it.

Ha ha, have to read the article though to see which irrigation pipe is best on top of one of my rifles.




Agree--see some do that and shake my head..put a 2 lb scope on a 5 lb rifle..

IN reviewing this the Swaro and Leupold are both under 20oz..which is not overly heavy..I have used many of the Leupolds, Swaro's and Zeiss through the years and NO will not mount a heavy scope on my hunting rifle..ie; Nightforce...I do have a couple NF's on target guns..but not a carry gun..each to their own...

Was surprised on the info that the NF had some leakage in the weather category..have never seen a bad comment about their quality before other than their weight..

As to several of the others, my personal belief is life is too short to use a Bushnell or similar quality.. won't do that either...I don't even put them on my 22 rimfire..
