Leatherwood scopes

What are your exsperiences with Leatherwood scopes? I'm looking at their 2-7 scout scope to put on my guide gun think it would hold up?

I ordered one of the Hi-Lux 2-7 scout scopes to put on my guide gun and well I get a report out as soon as I can once it arrives and I get a few rounds through it.

Well i have put a bunch of rounds through my guide gun and  it's been a steady dose of 405's @ 1800fps. My only quarm qith the scope is I don't have enough elevation to get the rounds on target at 100yard s the hit about 3 inches low. Other then that it hasn't drifted at all. SO I'm going to say it is a pretty good bang for the buck compared to other scout scopes out there.

I know I keep posting on myself, but I went and added .02 of shim stock under the back of my xs scope mount according to the trig that should raise me up 13inches at 100 yards which should be well within the scopes adjustment. Will let you all know how it works out.
