[QUOTE="becker_atc, post: 2001162, member: 12903"] Got out this morning for the first morning hunt of the season. It was about 24* F when i walked out of the house and into the woods. The house was about 60* where my rifle was sitting as the wood stove doesnt heat that part all to well. Got to where I wanted to sit and waited for the sun to come up. When it did I noticed that my rifle had formed a frost on the barrel, some of the action, and on scope tube. Looked throught he scope and it was fogged kinda. Wiped it off with my wool gloves (all I had) and went on. Came back once but not as bad and if I slightly took a breath on it it would fog smooth up. Looked almost like fog but was somewhat icy the first time. Was this just an issue of it going from warn spot to cold and freezing or does it need to come off and be sent in? Scope is a leupold rifleman 3-9x40 btw [/QUOTE]
