I have a Redfield(Tracker )rifle scope. I need to know if it has a life time warranty. This season after hunting in the rain it fogged up on the inside .

Redfield and Vortex brands make good entry level scopes with good clarity, durability, features and warranties. If you plan on hunting a scope with a low power around 3-4x and a high power of 9-12x with a bullet drop reticle like the Vortex BDC would be a good choice.
You can try to clear this your self. You will need a good sized clear plastic bag, say kitchen trashed can size. You will need to get your hands on some nitrogen or you can also use carbon dioxide. You will need some good electrical contact grease or Vaseline will also work. Take the focus lens off your scope, let it dry out. Now ck for any o-rings and try to find new if you can, put the grease on the screw threads.Put all the scope parts in the bag and pump up the bag with your nitrogen and tie off the bag but leave room so you can screw the lens back on once it has set for a little bit in the gas. This should let gas stay inside the scope so no moisture can get back inside to fog it up. Try that, sounds crazy but it will work.
Yes thats about all there is to it, adjust in small steps and tap on the barrel of the scope with a screw driver handle (light taps) after each adjustment before firing the gun.
In the past, I have successfully dried out scopes and binoculars by them in a warm oven.NO MORE than 150 degrees and monitor them closely.Many plastic parts will melt at high temps and then you have an expensive paperweight.I have dried out my Pentax 12x50s ($300) several times.I should know enough to come in out of the rain but will probably never learn.Good Luck!
I own a Redfield spotting scope the model year is between the 70's to 80's and I need to find a manual for it. But I was Wondering if you could answer a question there is a crossair, then there is another one right above that, then there is a loop on the bottom right hand corner. There is also a yard marker that starts at 600 and goes down to 100. Do you know what it is and how to use it or what the purpose of it is if you could help me that would be great. Thank you for all your help..Joshua Gambler
