They’re middle of the road price wise and are fine if you set it and forget it. Great warranty too. If you twist turrets though their weakness starts to show.

Agreed on middle of the road price-wise.
Agreed on great warranty. Although I've only tested it once.
But I call total BS on that s'posed "weakness". I've used Leupolds from that goofy l'il 1-4 CQB gizmo to 45x benchrest scopes. And I've spent a lot of time in the groundhog fields crankin those turrets. The RTZ is great. I will concede that it's a bit closer if you approach zero from the same direction every time. But outside of that they've all been balls-on.

IMO they're right in the beefy part of the "value curve". Scopes are like everything else. They'll let ya spend all ya want. I've tried Nightforce and a few others. And keep comin back to Leupold.
Vortex has some nice glass, but an import scope that costs as much as good American craftsmanship is not palatable here.

This opinion and $1 might get you a coffee at McDoogles. d;^)
