Reliable tactical hunting scope under $1500, impossible or not?

Optica6. 4.5-27 if I remember right. Just stopped tracking. Was on paper then wanted to zero it. Dialed up maybe 1 MOA and wasn't on paper. Walked out to the target and seen a bullet skid in the dirt way out in front of the target. Dialed 15 MOA up which got elevation back bet then it was also hitting very far right. Took it off at that point. I was done and didn't need the aggravation.
 
Some scopes are sensitive to the torque on the mounts. Too much and the parallax settings get jammed and other internals are seized up. We dont realize what tension we put on the screws and "screw" things up.

A friend of mine ruined two Swarovski scopes due to a tension build-up between the rings. This was on a 375HH.
