Does anyone else pack their scope in its own case away from the rifle when you travel? :?:
Last fall when the gorillas at Delta managed to trash two of Doohan's scopes despite the great guncase he had them packed in, I thought about all the force generated when a rifle case is dropped or otherwise mishandled. :idea: It seemed to me that packing the scope in a good pistol case would help protect it from the " careful " handling in transit. The down side is one more piece to lose. I have QR rings on all my scopes so I bought a thickly padded pistol case that will easily accommodate three good size scopes.
