I was browsing Midwayusa's website and while looking for a lower powered scipe, I found that they are expecting some 1.5-4 Freedom scopes that are refurbished. And, after contacting Midway, they told me the price is the same as a brand new one. I know that Leupold & Stevens has a very protective pricing structure but a refurb? Has anyone ever used one of these scopes and if so, what were the results? I have never heard of refurb Leupolds in the past but maybe there have been. At any rate, I am hoping somebody can shed a bit of information on these.
