WOW! Are you serious!? Sorry to hear that. I've always felt nervous going down range leaving my stuff, always.
hope you got it back!

This is why I always carry a neatly coiled 6' long cable and lock in my field box as standard equipment. Go invest $10 at the Home Depot for it. I string it through the triggergurd and the 4X4" wood post at the rifle rack when I walk out to change my 100 yard target during the ceae fire.....never mind if I had to walk out to a 600 yard or 1000 yard target!! The key to this lock is on my keychain year round with my house and car keys. I don't value my scoped target rifle any less then my truck, or the things in my house.
 
It is a one-sided venture when a person has to take out insurance to protect himself from sloppy work he is paying for.

Here is the good part. The next day he took it t a range 40 miles away and ask if anybody could load for him. They told him Gene Pitts could. Gene is our club manager. Gene told he would need the gun because it was a custom. To make a long story short. Yes from fellow shooters and Gene I got it back.
The real kicker is when went to file charges the states Attorney ask me if wanted file charges because I had my gun back. I came un hooked and told him he was A ------ thief. He spent 45 days and was turned loose.2 month's later he got arrested in NC for gun theft charges. Larry
