Well,, to me there is cost and then price. I doubt the Leupold can be beat at any price when everything is considered. I have a old broken Bushnell I use to mount scope rings with, I wounder what Bushnell would say if I sent it in for repair? I have 40 plus year old Leupold's I have sent in that were returned in "as new condition" internally.
The only cost to me was shipping to Leupold.
