Really? Do you traffic in scopes enough to build a database of scope failures vs cost? Or is this just an assumption that spending more money will get you something more reliable? I agree with Don. Most guys who spend thousands on a scope do it for appearances ... or because they think it will make them a better hunter/shot than they really are. I know what I need and it's a lot less than what a $2K scope has to offer. I don't need meat or horns so badly that I have to try shooting at critters in the dark or 500 yards away. And I sure as hell don't need to impress the other guys in my hunting camp with fancy gear ... because there aren't any other guys in my hunting camp.A $1000 or $3000 scope can still fail but that failure rate will be a fraction of what the $100 scope will be.
