Just another update. I too my 7 WSM with Swaro 3-10x42 AV on a backpack hunt where things got banged around plenty. The hunt culminated in a 520-yd shot, which I dialed to using the stock turret and my "redneck CDS" system, essentially a sticker on top of the turret with yardages marked off. Nailed my deer first shot.
I also shot the rifle/scope a bunch this summer with 162's driven hard. Not crazy recoil but no patsy either.
Anyway, since these scopes get dogged as unreliable I'm just reporting my data point to the contrary.
Wonder if the OP has anything new to report...?
