Best 223 Bolt Action Scope Choice

[cowdisciple]

What's better the swfa 3-9 or the 3-15?

If you want it now, the 3-15. Availability is the best ability, as they say. Could be years waiting on the unavailable SWFAs. Or look for a used one, of course.

We spent the day product testing with our 6mm Arcs and 223. There were two 3-15 SWFA, a 2-10 Nightforce SHV, and a 3-9 SWFA.

With the lower magnification scopes we both had a hard time resolving a 1MOA white steel target on a broken snow background @ 450 yards. It was far easier to see with the 3-15. No problem on the black 2 MOA target at the same distance.

I’ve always liked 4-16 or 6-18, I’ll probably switch a few rifles to that range.
