I guess very few folks have enough experience to know definitively, certainly not me. But, like Catfish, I have tried a lot of scopes on a lot of rifles (and shotguns and handguns) and, while I cannot say a Leupold has never failed me, I can say that that brand has failed me fewer times by far than any others and yes I have have tried Zeiss, Kahles, Swarofski and S&B (all of those make great scopes too, but they all have let me down at least once).

I will admit, the older Leupolds (and the Rifleman and VX-1 which seem to be the same) are a bit frustrating to zero but once they are settled in, they seem to stay. leupold is almost always my default optic, though I am willing to try others (just ordered a Kahles this morning).
