Looking for a decent lightweight scope

There are other versions within the credo line that are a bit lighter but this is a great "do everything" optic that will track and retain zero with the best of them. Mine barrel rolled for about 40 yards strapped to the side of my pack with about 100lb of bear in it and besides some deep scratches it is good to go. Pic is just moments before the great fall of 2023 :chuckle: Notice how @Jonathan_S is using his trekking poles to brace his pack? Yeah he's smarter than me :chuckle:

When I was teaching mountaineering we had all our students put pack leashes on their packs. When resting on snow pack with backpacks off they were to plant their ice axes in the snow and attach the leash. Dual purpose as the leash could be used to suspend the pack during crevasse rescue and repurposed as an anchor component if needed... but I digress. It only took one student to forget and watch their kit slide 500 feet down the slope for the rest to remember to secure their packs! Of course that NEVER happened to me.... at least as far as our students knew.

Vortex RZR LHT are a good option... they are light weight, have clear glass AND I haven't had to use the warranty on one of those yet.. :chuckle:
