For me, I wish they made a 1.75-6x42 w/duplex or #4. I think it would be a great all round scope and work in just about any situation. Now that's me...what about you guys? powdr

A fixed 10x42 with a choice of either Mil-dot -Mil Quad type or Duplex .
With Lower profile turrets than the SWFA ,brighter than the SWFA for easier use in the woods if needed .
Weighs about 12 ounces
Sells new for less than $300.00

Well you did ask !!

Also start using twin and better quality springs for the erector adjustments.
On every scope they make.

UncleSoapy,

Why a 4x40? It wouldn't be any brighter than a 4x33, and the larger objective would create a little bit of extra parallax.

I would like a 6X40 and 10X40 that with a 30mm tube, M1's, and readily available in either an MOA/MOA configuration as well as a MIL/MIL configuration.

Keep them priced around $400.00.

They took a swing at that a few years ago, but they messed up a couple of things.

I think they make a 6x33 as a custom order. I think a long tube 5x33 would be an interesting and useful model.

A 1.5x6x42mm with around at least 60 ft FOV on the bottom end preferably in an affordable VX-2. I have the same scopes from Sightron, Burris and Alpen (all discontinued) and they are my goto rigs.
