Wow,

These are the first negative things I've heard about Vortex optics.

Great.

I have a Viper 6.5x20-50 coming in the mail from cameraland. Now I'm worried I made the wrong choice. One bad scope I could see getting by, but you guys are saying this is common for the crossfires? I know it's a cheaper scope than the Viper but... ?

They say their warranty is unlimited, so why not just send it back and have them fix or replace it?
