leopold is the only scope manufacturer I know that has a "mangler", a phone booth size apparatus that they bolt a scope into then expose it to all types of forces.. a recoil torture test...and they do back it up with warranty if you break it..

Keep in mind that when it comes to the super magnums, the base and ring choice is just as important as the optics. I have had way more base and ring/mount failures than optics failures when it comes to the big magnums and I have shot and still shoot allot of big magnums.
