I assume the subtensions on the 3-9x42mm FFP are usable across the range of magnification?
Was thinking of a 6x and a 10x, but the discounted 3-9 may the winner

My wife want to get me a scope for Christmas, so I guess the 3-9 seems to be the best fit for me. I am afraid of the clarity of the 5-15 SFP.

THANKS!

My 12x A.O. Leupold is arriving at SWFA tomorrow for trade in on a 10X42mm Tactical.

I just saved $40. (GRIN!)

It is easy to fix the Ruger bases to use the SWFA supplied rings.

With a small square file to the rear only of the Ruger bases and a few minutes of work, pic type rings will work wonderfully. The Ruger bases are soft aluminum and very easy to work. Here is fitting the SWFA rings supplied with the SS 6x package deal. Go slow, check often, and only remove metal from the rear surface, NONE from the forward surface. Gently blow off the particles while working. When all done, a shot of Gun Scrubber is good for the final cleaning.

The 1-4 Illuminated is not showing up in red for the sale price like the rest of the scopes are.

Is the 1-4 going to go on sale, or not?

Same here. Seems like a "can't lose" kind of deal.

Based on the good press here, I ordered two of them at about 1205!

Was able to snag a 6x42MQ and 3-9x42.. we'll see how if they are in stock and how they work. Then decide if the 3-9x40mm Conquest remains atop the 7RM or takes a hike/rest.
Got hit for living in Texas, could've gotten some 30mm rings for the tax paid!

This is a little off base and don't mean to change the subject, but I went into Dick's this morning to buy my son a riffle. He wants a Rem 700 in .308. They only have the black on black with a no-name scope and it's not on sale $499.00. They've got a Savage Trophy Hunter with cammo in 30-06 with a Nikon BDC 3-9x40 on sale for $449.00. The guy behind the counter said the scope goes for $200.00 by it's self, but I'm not believing anything those guys tell me.

What do you guys think of the Savage opposed to the Rem. I need to act fast, I'm not sure how long it'll be on sale.

The rems are hit/miss lately IMO, and yes the scope on the rems are junk...worth ~$50. That savage package is a better deal and they have a rebate on them right now. They're more consistent in their manufacturing lately vs. Rem IMO.

I got hit with the Texas Tax too. The deals were healthy enough to absorb that pain.
