do your rifle scopes move around alot? as in, do you move your Leupold VX-3 from your 30-06 one year, to your 25-06 another year? or do you like to use the same scope on the same gun every year? if i had a couple nice rifle scopes and a couple rifles, i would switch around the scopes every now and then. that way if i get to liking one of the scopes, i won't be neglecting my other rifles. it's always good to be able to shoot accurately with all of your rifles and i wouldn't want to just be shooting one of them.

if i had a scope i really liked on one rifle , i would buy another one like it for my other rifle if it fit in to the same type of shooting situations . once a rifle is set up the way i want it i dont change it back and forth . i do have spare scopes on hand for the times i buy a rifle, but dont have the extra cash on hand to put the glass i want on it though .
scopes and guns can you ever have to many i think not.

A good way to do that is use the Leupold quik release base on your rifles and you can move the scope (with QR rings) around as long as action length is the same. Just don't forget to resight the scope in for the rifle it is on. Better idea is to mount a good scope and leave it. Do what the gang said and get a scope for each gun.

Moving scopes around on rifles is a bad idea for the reasons stated by the gang above. That said, I have moved scopes when I upgraded a scope on a particular rifle and moved the one removed to a different rifle. At times I had more rifles than scopes so some sat for years with no scope. My .308 sat for a couple of years but now has a 2-7x Leupold ready to to strike!
