In truth, in all my years of shooting, I've never come across something such as the issues you're having with your leupold.
As I mentioned, I'd be happy to buy it from you so you can go get something that you'd like better.

I say this because in my own experience, the only things that I have ever had knock my leupold scopes out of zero was airline baggage handlers and my ex-wife tossing my rifle case around like a sack of potatoes.
Hence, she's my EX.

One other thing I would check is the bolt lugs, and how they mesh onto the chamber lugs. A black sharpie does the trick - blacken the lug locking surfaces with the sharpie, then cycle the bolt ONCE.
The majority of the ink should be gone, indicating where the two faces touch.
If there's still a lot of ink on one of them, then you have bolt issues that should be easily resolved by lapping the lugs.
Bolt face flex might cause similar conditions to what you've described, too.
