Red field is made by Leupold now isn't it?

Sort of... not.
Redfield is owned by Leupold, but all products bearing the Redfield name are made in China.
As far as I know all of Leupold's products bearing their own name are still made in the USA. But given the super low prices I've been seeing lately on their 3-9 VX1's that put them in the same price range as the Redfields (even Sportsman's Guide has been advertising them, never a good sign), I have to wonder if they might be moving some of their own production overseas or just quietly eliminating that line and liquidating their inventory. I think there would have been some news of either in the industry and I have heard/read nothing about it. Time will tell.

I saw they were in the last SG too. When Harbor Freight picks them up too, its time to run...
I like my Leupold scopes but a few are a bastard to adjust. The adjustments doesn't take until after the first shot. I picked up a few Bushnell Elites and they are working out well.

it seems the redfiels are inline to replace the low end luepolds. the optics were ok but scope didnt hold 0 very well
I have yet to find a Bushnell riflescope or spotting scope regardless of its price that I can adjust the eyepiece focus enough so I can get a clear picture, though I have one of their tiny red dots that is fantastic. But I often have the same focus issues with many other cheap scopes too, except, strangely enough, Tascos. I figure the problem is with my right eye as no one else seems bothered by them.

Had you looked at the Elite 3200 or 4200? I have one of each and like them. 3200 is a 3x9x50 and the 4200 is a 3.5x10x50.

the elite 4200 is a good scope i have a 6-24x40 mil dot. ive had it since 02 or 03 never loses its zero
I have checked them out at the gun shop, no joy. Any time they have something new or used I haven't seen before I check them.
