You know what they say " Don't fix what's not broken" if you plan on reaching out to further than 400 yards a higher quality scope may be worth it!!! Your a7 definitely was a GREAT purchase!!!

I have an A7 that came with the Burris scope and used it for a few seasons without fail. Took it off and put it on a varmint gun (that never got shot so I sold the gun) and bought a Viper because I liked the glass better but I think those Burris scopes have good glass. My friend has one on a Tikka and has been on their for at least 6 years with no problem.
I would change out the scopes on the axis and other 3-500 packages though.

The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same reason my well-fed cat hunts...because I must, because it is in the blood, because I am the decendent of a thousand generations of hunters. I hunt because I am a hunter.- Finn Aagard
