Problems with redfield scopes?
« on: February 15, 2013, 03:06:22 PM »
Looked through previous post and didn't see where anyone had made any comments on Redfield scopes. Anyone have any particular problems with these scopes if you have one. In particular the 6 - 18 x 44
HMC/USN/RET
1969 -1990

According to their website they are now "part of the Leupold family".

Leupold is indeed the owner of redfield. I have 2 of the brand new revenges 4-12's. Both have been good all threw last season. Call them up they will make it right.

I have the 2-7 on my 308. It has held perfect zero for 2 seasons, 100+ rounds, never fogged up, love it in lower light too.

The revolution which came out a few years ago is MADE IN OREGON.  I have 3-9x40 and it is great.  Full day of rain is no match for the revolution and leupold thread in scope caps!!!
The newer scope "revenge" is NOT MADE IN THE USA.
