Gentlemen,
A question if I may. I have some money reserved to purchase a scope for my .308, i.e. Hidden in the sock drawer in the hope that my wife doesn't find it. I was hoping to buy a high end variable power scope, perhaps a HDMR or a Leupold.

But, I've seen some used scopes for sale on the internet and have gotten greedy. Perhaps I can buy a nice used scope and save some money to spend on other stuff.

So, are there any specific tests to make sure that a used scope works and is in good repair? Or is it even worth buying a used scope?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
