plague of bad scopes in aussie.
g'day, l sent a bad vari-zone back to the guy l'm working in with through the club l'm involved with john at ausbow he tells me that his returns are quite high lately, its not a good thing, & its dangerous.. shooting from a bench-rest l expect to hit a 10 cent coin or less each time from 20 yards not play around the board. or do we expect far to much? also for a matter of interest all the scopes l fit to my bows are pretty much on the game within an inch or 2 or so this one shot out of the bow 16 inches high straight over the target, not a good thing. regards blackjack

Maybe this is the problem im having. Although the vari zone is fancy and all i also have a nikko stirling on the other bow and that seems to work better Wont fit on the excal though so not sure.
Whats the main problems for sending them back?
And blackjack, you never got back to me about the nocks...another

Re: plague of bad scopes in aussie.
Thats interesting, maybe i should swap scopes over and see how it goes. Although i though they would have been tested in the factory since mine came perfectly horizontaly sighted in and was only slightly out vertcally.

Re: plague of bad scopes in aussie.
thanks bob but its a bit hard down under in Australia l've already talked with john Clark the excalibur dealer in australia & a letter is on its way to excalibur now he's got a table full of returns so to speak to return back to excalibur. the biggest problem is excalibur needs someone from Canada to stand at the end of the line & check them before they are sold to us. regards frankbstout wrote:If it were me, I'd call Dan Miller here in the States.
Dan has seen it all before and won't pull any punches. He's *damn straight* when it comes to most everything and won't try to sugar coat the situation. Dan is near Sardis, Ohio which is in the eastern time zone.
Give him a call, he can answer any and all of your questions.

Come on now Blackjack, it's pretty hard to have a "plague" of bad scopes in OZ, the total number of LZs that have been sold there is pretty small!
Chances are very good that the problems you are having are with some LZs from the bad batch that we had a year or two back. As usual we will honor our warranty commitments by replacing the defective scope with a brand new one from our newest and very reliable LZ. So far the total warranty on the new LZs is between 1 and 2 %, which is acceptable but we are hoping to improve on it. As always, if you have problems with any of our products let us know and we'll be pleased to help.
