Yup, I see your point and was hesitant to post this inquiry. Recoil is somewhat less traumatic in terms of shock wave frequency and stress risers in an all-metal transfer and I would not be concerned about it in any Leupold scope. Howerver, I was advised that the 10/22 had an unsually severe instance of high frequency contact as a result of it's unique action and was (a little) worried about the scope's ability to withstand it.
