RE: Leupold in Wal-Mart??
They are just a cheap scope with the Lupy name stamped on it, probably with lead paint.......:)

RE: Leupold in Wal-Mart??
ORIGINAL: Passafist I'm waiting to hear what the "it's sold at wal-mart and it's inexpensive so it must be junk" crowd has to say. The Rifleman isn't junk because it is sold at Wal-Mart. It is, however, a pitiful attempt by Leupold (a great company that makes really good scopes and has a superb reputation of standing behind their products) at reaching down into the low-end of the scope market. When your competition at this price point includes features such as fully-multicoatings, audible click turrent adjustments instead of the 1960's style friction adjustments, and a one piece tube, then yes, the Rifleman is not, in my humble opinion, competitive. In my opinion the Rifleman is a black eye for a great optics company like Leopold. There, I said it. For about the same price one can get a Burris Fullfield II, Bushnell Elite 3200, or Nikon Buckmaster. These three scopes are brighter, completely fog and waterproof, and fullymulticoated. These three scopes outclass the Leopold Rifleman in my opinion. I own all three of these by the way and when comparing them side by side the Rifleman isn't in the same ballpark. |

But it's a Leupold. It HAS to be a great scope....it just has to be.

I've got the 3x9x50 In the rifleman on my Rem. 7mm mag and I love It.I have killed two deer with It since putting the scope on,one was at 335 yards,and the other was 293 yards.The scope does good In low light conditions also.
