Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Fixed 10X for Hunting

They are as durable and reliable as scopes get. "Glass" is about Leupold Vari-X III quality.

[quote=HuntnShoot]So since I have all you guys here....is the consensus on the SWFA 10X that it is a good and fine and worthwhile scope, and not just a good scope for $300? Low-light resolution matters to me, but for my purposes, a scope that accurately tracks matters a bit more. Opinions? [/quo

The OP was about a fixed 10X scope for hunting, I suppose
you gathered that.
I think the general consensus is that a fixed 10X is not
and never will be a common size hunting scope. Way too dim
for most users at low light. Other than that, we all can
have our own opinion.

I was asking about a particular 10X scope for hunting. I know there are many here who've used that scope. Figured it wasn't a thread hijack. I've no mind to worry about "common". Any experience with the SWFA?

Yes the swfa fixed 10x is a good hunting scope. I used it on 3 deer last year and one was at dark. The milrad reticle is tough to see at dark but it worked. I couldn't count points on the buck but knew it was plenty high and wide and his body was mature. No problem getting the reticle on the shoulder and squeezing one off on him.
