prairie_goat Campfire Outfitter P Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 8,902 Likes: 1 Montana	Originally Posted by Paradiddle I'm torn between a 6x42 Leupy with LRD or the SWFA. I have an older M8 6x42 that I love and have owned nothing but Leupold. Might have to give SWFA a try for my upcoming hunt. I'm not a long range shooter or even one who would twist dials (I think). Leupold fixed power all the way for a hunting gun. The SWFA scopes, while great for dialing, are simply too bulky for a lightweight hunting rifle and make it really top heavy and awkward. The 3-9 isn't too bad for bulk, but I'm not real happy with the eye relief for a hard kicker and/or rifle which may be shot from really cramped or awkward positions such as are a part of life in hunting. I'm strictly a fixed power/dot guy for hunting. Just too much stuff can go wrong with exposed turrets.....even those that stay lined in can get moved by brush or when pulled from a scabbard.
