    Just wondering ..

    Anyone had a chance to try these , how do they compare to the BIG names..?
    (Glass quality etc...)
    Are they capable of dealing with recoil from centerfire riles ..?

    I have two at this stage, both take rough treatment and get swopped around and lent regularly. I reckon they represent great value for money. I have a 6.5 - 20 Leupold and it is great. But I must admit to not seeing a great difference in general light conditions. I would accept that the "better" Optics are better in challenging conditions, but are they four times better ? My Leupold cost four times more.

    I have a swift scope in 3x9x50 .... Excellent glass and very good scope. Mounted on a .223 Remington 700 and no problems. I'd certainly recommend them. These are quality scopes against anything thats out there
