    I had a Tikka several years ago. Used the factory rings. Had a tumble, the rifle fell smack onto a rock several feet below where I landed, bounced at least once - the scope didn’t budge and it held zero perfectly. Didn’t stop me buying optilocks though! Don’t ask me why.

    Sales staff, especially those who work for two well known retail chains. As a certain bloke once said, they chime like cuckoo clocks, "optilocks, optilocks".
