I impacted nothing at that time the scope would go fuzzy after each shot. I had to reset the Parallax after each shot. I sent the scope back to Vortex when I got it back they told me it had failed there parallax impact test all I did was use it on my .308 to shoot targets. I did not use it as a hammer.Perhaps you should stop conducting "impact tests" as you stated previously on your 5th response. I'm not sure what that entails but perhaps this may be the cause of the scope failure.
i don't live all that far from Terry.. nice stockI shoot a Vortex GE and I don't care where it is made or whether it is reworked by Vortex once it arrives. What I care about is it gives me a clear image and holds point of aim reliably. Good shooting...JamesView attachment 1057603
