I like the turret adjustments on the new trijicon accupoint 1-8 but I like the price on the SWFA 1-6! A review video I watched showed the Trijicon 1-8 reticle disappearing against a foliage background contrasted to a white shed at low power, but I can find no through the scope images of the SWFA 1-6. The 8 power, and turrets are cool, just don't know if the non illuminated reticle is good at low powers on the either of them. I think I am going to put on of my 1-4 classic SWFA scopes in the spare box and not use it anymore. I am not sure the made in the Philippines is a good thing.

That 1-8 would be nice but I really like my SWFA 1-6x for an AR-15. If i were shooting a round with more legs (308, 6.5 Creed), I could see wanting a little extra power on the top end but not for a 223 Rem. Also, the FFP Circle on 1x is outstanding for fast target acquisition!!

great endorsement, and at the black friday sale might be able to get it for $800 or so.
