Sorry for the delay.
Let's just say you don't need much disposable income for a Leupy. A friend of mine is the head guy in the mil/leo division. He's able to get some very good deals if you are willing to wait.
I'm a big fan of their stuff, Leupold is becoming a very innovative company and takes great pride in their products.
But I've also had first hand experience with USO and their services department is very good too. I had a scope that the turret was a little "squishy". I was the second owner of it. I called USO, they just needed the S/N and sent me a repair ticket.
I had the scope back within a week and that included the travel from Michigan to the west coast.
I also hear nothing bad about Nightforce's service dept.
